Our recently completed analysis of the decay constants of both pseudoscalar and vector beauty mesons reveals that in the bottom- quark sector two specific features of the sum- rule predictions show up: ( i) For the input value of the bottom- quark mass in the (MS) over bar scheme (mb) over bar((mb) over bar) approximate to 4.18 GeV, the sum-rule result f(B) approximate to 210- 220 MeV for the B meson decay constant is substantially larger than the recent lattice- QCD finding f(B) approximate to 190 MeV. Requiring QCD sum rules to reproduce the lattice- QCD value of fB yields a significantly larger b-quark mass: (mb) over bar((mb) over bar) = 4.247 GeV. ( ii) Whereas QCD sum- rule predictions for the charmed- meson decay constants f(D), f(Ds), f(D)* and f(D)*(s) are practically independent of the choice of renormalization scale, in the beauty sector the results for the decay constantsand especially for the ratio f(B)*/f(B)-prove to be very sensitive to the specific scale setting.
