Determination of -meson distribution amplitudes from transition form factors
arXiv:2512.11741 · doi:10.1007/JHEP05(2026)115
Abstract
Recent work on , and form factors from lattice QCD and light-cone sum rules has made it possible to constrain the inverse moment of the -meson light-cone distribution amplitudes by performing a global fit of form factors. We have compiled the form factors calculated by the HPQCD, MILC, and RBC/UKQCD collaborations in the large region. By employing an three-parameter ansatz of the -meson light-cone distribution amplitudes, we express the form factors at that are calculated from light-cone sum rules, in terms of the inverse moment of the leading-twist -meson light-cone distribution amplitude. In the channel, we also include the available -binned experimental data from the BaBar, Belle, and Belle~II collaborations. Using the Bourrely-Caprini-Lellouch parametrization, we perform a global fit and obtain ~MeV and . The second uncertainty is obtained by constraining MeV and varying the inverse logarithmic moments and , which represents the model-dependent uncertainty from the -meson light-cone distribution amplitudes. When taking into account and as fitting parameters simultaneously, the intervals of our preditions are ~MeV and .
