Abstract

The B-meson wavefunction has been studied with the help of the vacuum-to-meson matrix element of the nonlocal operators in the heavy quark effective theory. In order to obtain the Wandzura-Wilczek-type B-meson wavefunction, we solve the equations which are derived from the equation of motion of the light spectator quark in the B meson by using two different assumptions. Under the condition that , the solutions for the B-meson wavefunction in this paper agree well with the one obtained by directly taking the heavy quark limit . Our results show that the equation of motion of the light spectator quark in the B meson can impose a strong constraint on the B-meson wavefunctions . Based on the obtained results, we claim that both its distribution amplitudes and are important for calculating the B meson decays.
