The OPE of the B-meson light-cone wavefunction for exclusive B decays: radiative corrections and higher-dimensional operators
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss the B-meson light-cone wavefunction relevant for QCD factorization approach for exclusive B-meson decays. We derive the operator product expansion for the B-meson light-cone wavefunction, taking into account the local composite operators of dimension less than 6 and calculating the radiative corrections at order αs for the corresponding Wilson coefficients. The result embodies peculiar UV and IR behaviors of the B-meson light-cone wavefunction, the Sudakovtype double logarithmic effects and the mixing of the multiparticle states with additional gluons inside the B meson. The former effects are induced from the cusp singularity in the radiative corrections, while the latter is manifested by the participation of the higher-dimensional operators associated with the nonperturbative structure of the B meson.

OPE for B-meson distribution amplitude and dimension-5 HQET operators
The B-meson light-cone distribution amplitude (LCDA) is defined as the matrix element of a quark-antiquark bilocal light-cone operator in the heavy-quark effective theory (HQET) and is a building block of QCD factorization formula for exclusive B-meson decays. When the corresponding bilocal HQET operator has a light-like distance t between the quark and antiquark fields, the scale ∼ 1/t separat...
متن کاملRare Radiative B Decays in Perturbative Qcd
We report on recent progress on perturbative QCD calculations of certain exclusive rare weak B meson decays involving hard photons. In the limit of a photon energy Eγ much larger than ΛQCD , the amplitudes for such processes can be analyzed in a twist expansion in powers of Λ/Eγ . The leading twist amplitude is given by the convolution of a hard scattering amplitude with the B meson light-cone ...

We present first complete results for the semileptonic and rare radiative form factors of B mesons weak decay into a light vector meson (ρ, ω,K, φ) in the light-cone sum rule approach. The calculation includes radiative corrections, higher twist corrections and SU(3) breaking effects. The theoretical uncertainty is investigated in detail. A simple parametrization of the form factors is given in...
متن کاملHigher twist light-cone distribution amplitudes of vector mesons in QCD
Amplitudes of hard (light-cone dominated) exclusive processes in QCD are expressed by the factorization formulae, which separate the short-distance dynamics from the longdistance one[1]. For those processes producing a (light) vector meson V (= ρ, ω,K, φ) in the final state, like exclusive semileptonic or radiative B decays (B → V eν, B → V + γ) and the hard electroproduction of vector mesons (...
متن کاملLight-cone sum rules: A SCET-based formulation
We describe the construction of light-cone sum rules (LCSRs) for exclusive B-meson decays into light energetic hadrons from correlation functions within soft-collinear effective theory (SCET). As an example, we consider the SCET sum rule for the B → π transition form factor at large recoil, including radiative corrections from hard-collinear loop diagrams at first order in the strong coupling c...
