Two-particle twist-3 distribution amplitudes of the pion and kaon in the light-front quark model

Abstract

We investigate the two-particle twist-3 distribution amplitudes (DAs) of the pseudoscalar mesons, in particular pseudoscalar (${\varphi }_{3;M}^P(x)$) and pseudotensor (${\varphi }_{3;M}^{\sigma }(x)$) DAs of the pion and kaon, in the light-front quark model based on the variational principle. We find that the behavior of the conformal symmetry in each meson distribution amplitude depends on the chiral limit characteristics of the light-front trial wave function taken in the variational principle. We specifically take the two different light-front trial wave functions, Gaussian vs. power-law type, and discuss their characteristics of the conformal symmetry in the chiral symmetry limit as well as their resulting degree of the conformal symmetry breaking in ${\varphi }_{3;M}^P(x)$ and ${\varphi }_{3;M}^{\sigma }(x)$ depending on the trial wave function taken in the computation. We present numerical results of transverse moments, Gegenbauer-moments and $\xi$-moments and compare them with other available model estimates. The SU(3) flavor-symmetry breaking effect is also quantified with the numerical computation.
