The ratio $\mathcal{R}(D_s)$ for $B_s\to D_s\ell \hat{I}{½}_{\ell }$ by using the QCD light-cone sum rules within the framework of heavy quark effective field theory

Abstract

In the paper, we study the $B_s\to D_s$ transition form factors by using the light-cone sum rules within the framework of heavy quark effective field theory. We adopt a chiral current correlation function to do the calculation, the resultant transition form factors $f_{+}^{B_s\to D_s}(q^2)$ and $f_0^{B_s\to D_s}(q^2)$ are dominated by the contribution of $D_s$-meson leading-twist distribution amplitude, while the contributions from less certain $D_s$-meson twist-3 distribution amplitudes are greatly suppressed. At the largest recoil point, we obtain $f_{+,0}^{B_s\to D_s}(0)=0.533_{-0.094}^{+0.112}$. By further extrapolating the transition form factors into all the physically allowable $q^2$ region with the help of the $z$-series parametrization approach, we calculate the branching fractions $\mathcal{B}(B_s\to D_s{\ell }^{\prime }\hat{I}{½}_{{\ell }^{\prime }})$ with $({\ell }^{\prime }=e,\hat{I}¼)$ and $\mathcal{B}(B_s\to D_s\ddot{I}„\hat{I}{½}_{\ddot{I}}„)$, which gives $\mathcal{R}(D_s)=0.334\pm 0.017$.
