Semileptonic Decays of Heavy to Light Mesons from an Mit Bag Model

Using the (modified) MIT bag model we calculated formfactors and decay widths for pseudoscalar - pseudoscalar and pseudoscalar - vector semileptonic decays of heavy to light mesons. We discuss the physical phenomena which are important in these processes and their influence on the measurable quantities. Our results are consistent with the available experimental data. A comparison with the results of other models is also given.
