Pion and kaon form factors in the perturbative QCD approach

Abstract: We present the most accurate calculation for the pion and kaon electromagnetic form factors in the framework of perturbative QCD, where the power corrections up to twist-4 of the meson distribution amplitudes and the next-to-leading-order QCD corrections up to subleading power are included. In order to guarantee the gauge invariance of the meson to vacuum matrix element, we take into account both assignments with the lowest Fock state and the high Fock state with an additional valence gluon. Our results confir… Show more

“…In the full amplitude G, the gauge dependence proportional to k T from the twoparton Fock state cancels with the gauge dependence associated with the three-parton Fock state, then the gauge invariant LCDAs φ defined by the approximate path of Wilson link deduces to the gauge invariance of the NLO (to all order) hard kernel H(ζ, b) [69,70]. The three-particle corrections to pion e.m. and B → π transition form factor are found at most a few percent [71][72][73]. The k T factorization and high power corrections are also surveyed in the ρ meson involved processes [74,75].…”

“…In Refs. [73,166], high power correction from pion meson DAs up to twist-four is replenished to pion e.m. and transition form factors, showing that the contribution from the three-parton Fock state is at least one order of magnitude smaller than that from the lowest Fock state, and confirming the convergence of twist expansion. The 12 GeV upgrade program at Jefferson Lab will measure more data of F π in the intermediate energy regions, providing a chance to extract the nonperturbative parameters of meson DAs, i.e., the moments in Gegenbauer polynomials expansion, with the precise PQCD predictions.…”

“…One part of these NLO correlations is included in the effective Wilson coefficients, whereas the other parts provide the independent decay amplitudes for certain channels. The second type of NLO QCD corrections carries the dynamics from the scale to the hadronic scale, which are manifested by means of heavy-to-light transition form factors [55,56], the timelike form factors of final light mesons [57][58][59][60][61], Glauber effects in the hard scattering spectator and annihilation amplitudes [62][63][64], and other possible corrections that have not been studied in detail [65]. Besides the QCD correction at NLO, the sub-leading power corrections from high twist light cone distribution amplitudes (LC-DAs) were recently studied for pion form factors and the radiative leptonic decay in the PQCD approach [66][67][68].…”

“…The solutions demonstrate that the resummation effect suppresses the shape of the B meson LCDA near the endpoint [118], and the dependence on the choice of is not significant in pion meson wave functions because the joint resummation-improved pion wave function does not exhibit sizable corrections [119]. This is not accidental because the and threshold resummations have previously reshaped the end-point behaviours of meson wave functions [65]. For the sake of simplicity, we can take to eliminate the logarithm term and take a large value of at to reduce the uncertainty on the constant terms from the loop calculation in different momentum regions.…”
