QCD corrections to $B\to \pi$ form factors from light-cone sum rules

Abstract

We compute perturbative corrections to $B\to \pi$ form factors from QCD light-cone sum rules with $B$-meson distribution amplitudes. Applying the method of regions we demonstrate factorization of the vacuum-to-$B$-meson correlation function defined with an interpolating current for pion, at one-loop level, explicitly in the heavy quark limit. The short-distance functions in the factorization formulae of the correlation function involves both hard and hard-collinear scales; and these functions can be further factorized into hard coefficients by integrating out the hard fluctuations and jet functions encoding the hard-collinear information. Resummation of large logarithms in the short-distance functions is then achieved via the standard renormalization-group approach. We further show that structures of the factorization formulae for $f_{B\pi }^{+}(q^2)$ and $f_{B\pi }^0(q^2)$ at large hadronic recoil from QCD light-cone sum rules match that derived in QCD factorization. In particular, we perform an exploratory phenomenological analysis of $B\to \pi$ form factors, paying attention to various sources of perturbative and systematic uncertainties, and extract $|V_{ub}|=\left(3.05_{-0.38}^{+0.54}{|}_{th.}\pm 0.09{|}_{exp.}\right)\times 10^{-3}$ with the inverse moment of the $B$-meson distribution amplitude ${\varphi }_B^{+}(\omega )$ determined by reproducing $f_{B\pi }^{+}(q^2=0)$ obtained from the light-cone sum rules with $\pi$ distribution amplitudes. Furthermore, we present the invariant-mass distributions of the lepton pair for $B\to \pi \ell {\nu }_{\ell }$ ($\ell =\mu ,\tau$) in the whole kinematic region. Finally, we discuss non-valence Fock state contributions to the $B\to \pi$ form factors $f_{B\pi }^{+}(q^2)$ and $f_{B\pi }^0(q^2)$ in brief.
