Description

We calculate the form factors and the coupling constant in the ρD*D* vertex in the framework of QCD sum rules. We evaluate the three point correlation functions of the vertex considering both ρ and D* mesons off-shell. The form factors obtained are very different but give the same coupling constant: gρD*D*=6.60±0.31. This number is 50% larger than what we would expect from SU(4) estimates
