New approach for calculating heavy-to-light form factors with QCD sum rules on the light-cone

چکیده
We suggest a new approach for calculating heavy-to-light form factors. The method is based on light cone sum rules (LCSR) and covers the whole kinematical range of momentum transfer. The derivation of the new sum rule uses a suitable combination of double and single dispersion integrals. As an example we give numerical results for the form factor f+ for the B → π transition. e-mail: [email protected] e-mail: [email protected]

Use and Misuse of QCD Sum Rules in Heavy-to-light Transitions: the Decay B → ρeν Reexamined
The existing calculations of the form factors describing the decay B → ρeν from QCD sum rules have yielded conflicting results at small values of the invariant mass squared of the lepton pair. We demonstrate that the disagreement originates from the failure of the short-distance expansion to describe the ρ meson distribution amplitude in the region where almost the whole momentum is carried by ...
متن کاملQCD Sum Rules on the Light-Cone, Factorisation and SCET
The accurate calculation of weak heavy-to-light form factors is crucial for the determination of CKM matrix elements from experimental data on B decays. In SCET, the soft-collinear effective theory, these form factors can, in the heavy quark limit, be split into a factorisable part that is calculable in perturbation theory, and a nonfactorisable part that observes certain spin-symmetries. I dis...

A systematic analysis shows that the main uncertainties in the form factors are due to the twist-3 wave functions of the light mesons in the light-cone QCD sum rules. We propose an improved approach, in which the twist-3 wave functions doesn’t make any contribution and therefore the possible pollution by them can be avoided, to re-examine B → π semileptonic form factors. Also, a comparison betw...

FERMILAB–PUB–98/067–T (extended version) CERN–TH/98–215 hep-ph/9802394 Abstract: I calculate the form factors describing semileptonic and penguin-induced decays of B mesons into light pseudoscalar mesons. The form factors are calculated from QCD sum rules on the light-cone including contributions up to twist 4, radiative corrections to the leading twist contribution and SU(3)-breaking effects. ...
