Instanton effects on the twist-three light-cone distribution amplitudes of pion and light scalar mesons above 1GeV

Abstract

By use of single instanton approximation the twist-3 light-cone distribution amplitudes of pion as well as the p-wave mesons, i.e., $f_0(1370)$, $K_0^{\ast }(1430)$ and $a_0(1450)$ are investigated within the framework of QCD moment sum rules with inclusion of instanton effects based on the valence quark model. Results show that there is much change on light-cone distribution amplitudes by the isospin- and chirality-dependent instanton contribution compared with the instanton-free ones. We find the intanton involved twist-3 LCDAs are non-positive-definite within some range of momentum fraction and there are rapid changes at two ends of momentum fraction. To guarantee the convergence of moments by the method in this work a low instanton density should be adopted, for instance $n_c=1/2\mathrm{f}{\mathrm{m}}^{-4}$ is welcomed. Possible ingredients which might have impact on the results are briefly discussed. These light-cone distribution amplitudes may be helpful to analyze exclusive heavy flavored processes.
