Information on the Pion Distribution Amplitude from the Pion-Photon Transition Form Factor with the Belle and BaBar Data
The pion-photon transition form factor (TFF) provides strong constraints on
the pion distribution amplitude (DA). We perform an analysis of all existing
data (CELLO, CLEO, BaBar, Belle) on the pion-photon TFF by means of light-cone
pQCD approach in which we include the next-to-leading order correction to the
valence-quark contribution and estimate the non-valence-quark contribution by a
phenomenological model based on the TFF's limiting behavior at both
and . At present, the pion DA is not definitely determined, it is
helpful to have a pion DA model that can mimic all the suggested behaviors,
especially to agree with the constraints from the pion-photon TFF in whole
measured region within a consistent way. For the purpose, we adopt the
conventional model for pion wavefunction/DA that has been constructed in our
previous paper \cite{hw1}, whose broadness is controlled by a parameter . We
fix the DA parameters by using the CELLO, CLEO, BABAR and Belle data within the
smaller region ( GeV), where all the data are consistent
with each other. And then the pion-photon TFF is extrapolated into larger
region. We observe that the BABAR favors which has the behavior close
to the Chernyak-Zhitnitsky DA, whereas the recent Belle favors which
is close to the asymptotic DA. We need more accurate data at large region
to determine the precise value of , and the definite behavior of pion DA can
be concluded finally by the consistent data in the coming future.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures. Slightly changed and references update
Transverse momentum dependence in the perturbative calculation of pion form factor
By reanalysing transverse momentum dependence in the perturbative calculation
of pion form factor an improved expression of pion form factor which takes into
account the transverse momentum dependenc in hard scattering amplitude and
intrinsic transverse momentum dependence associated with pion wave functions is
given to leading order, which is available for momentum transfers of the order
of a few GeV as well as for . Our scheme can be extended to
evaluate the contributions to the pion form factor beyond leading order.Comment: 13 pages in LaTeX, plus 3 Postscript figure
Semileptonic decays in the light-cone QCD sum rules
Semileptonic () decays are investigated systematically in the
light-cone QCD sum rules. Special emphasis is put on the LCSR calculation on
weak form factors with an adequate chiral current correlator, which turns out
to be particularly effective to control the pollution by higher twist
components of spectator mesons. The result for each channel depends on the
distribution amplitude of the the producing meson. The leading twist
distribution amplitudes of the related heavy mesons and charmonium are worked
out by a model approach in the reasonable way. A practical scenario is
suggested to understand the behavior of weak form factors in the whole
kinematically accessible ranges. The decay widths and branching ratios are
estimated for several () decay modes of current interest.Comment: 8 pages, talk given by the first arthur at 4th International

An Implication on the Pion Distribution Amplitude from the Pion-Photon Transition Form Factor with the New BABAR Data
The new BABAR data on the pion-photon transition form factor arouses people's
new interests on the determination of pion distribution amplitude. To explain
the data, we take both the leading valence quark state's and the non-valence
quark states' contributions into consideration, where the valence quark part up
to next-to-leading order is presented and the non-valence quark part is
estimated by a phenomenological model based on its limiting behavior at both
and . Our results show that to be consistent with the
new BABAR data at large region, a broader other than the asymptotic-like
pion distribution amplitude should be adopted. The broadness of the pion
distribution amplitude is controlled by a parameter . It has been found that
the new BABAR data at low and high energy regions can be explained
simultaneously by setting to be around 0.60, in which the pion distribution
amplitude is closed to the Chernyak-Zhitnitsky form.Comment: 19 pages, 6 figures, 2 tables. Slightly changed, references updated.

Pion Form Factor in the Factorization Formalism
Based on the light-cone (LC) framework and the factorization formalism,
the transverse momentum effects and the different helicity components'
contributions to the pion form factor are recalculated. In
particular, the contribution to the pion form factor from the higher helicity
components (), which come from the spin-space Wigner
rotation, are analyzed in the soft and hard energy regions respectively. Our
results show that the right power behavior of the hard contribution from the
higher helicity components can only be obtained by fully keeping the
dependence in the hard amplitude, and that the dependence in LC wave
function affects the hard and soft contributions substantially. As an example,
we employ a model LC wave function to calculate the pion form factor and then
compare the numerical predictions with the experimental data. It is shown that
the soft contribution is less important at the intermediate energy region.Comment: 21 pages, 4 figure
Improved approach to the heavy-to-light form factors in the light-cone QCD sum
A systematic analysis shows that the main uncertainties in the form factors
are due to the twist-3 wave functions of the light mesons in the light-cone QCD
sum rules. We propose an improved approach, in which the twist-3 wave functions
doesn't make any contribution and therefore the possible pollution by them can
be avoided, to re-examine semileptonic form factors. Also, a
comparison between the previous and our results from the light-cone QCD sum
rules is made. Our method will be beneficial to the precise extracting of
from the experimental data on the processes .Comment: New version to appear in PR
The Necessary and Sufficient Conditions of Separability for Multipartite Pure States
In this paper we present the necessary and sufficient conditions of
separability for multipartite pure states. These conditions are very simple,
and they don't require Schmidt decomposition or tracing out operations. We also
give a necessary condition for a local unitary equivalence class for a
bipartite system in terms of the determinant of the matrix of amplitudes and
explore a variance as a measure of entanglement for multipartite pure states.Comment: Submitted to PRL in Sep. 2004, the paper No is LV9637. Submitted to

Radiative Corrections on the Form Factors with Chiral Current in the Light-Cone Sum Rules
Based on the approach of the vector form factor in
our previous papers, we extend the calculation of the radiative corrections to
the ( stands , and all light pseudoscalar mesons) scalar
and tensor form factors with chiral current in the
light-cone sum rules (LCSRs). The most uncertain twist-3 contributions to the
form factors can be naturally eliminated through a properly designed
correlator. We present the next-leading-order formulae of with the -quark pole mass that is universal. It has been shown that
our results are simpler and less uncertain under the same parameter regions
since we only need to calculate the next leading order on the twist-2 part from
the obtained LCSR. Second, we obtain
,
, and
at and the -breaking effects are discussed too.Comment: 26 pages, 9 figures. References added and typo error corrected. To be

Heavy-to-light transition form factors and their relations in light-cone QCD sum rules
The improved light-cone QCD sum rules by using chiral current correlator is
systematically reviewed and applied to the calculation of all the
heavy-to-light form factors, including all the semileptonic and penguin ones.
By choosing suitable chiral currents, the light-cone sum rules for all the form
factors are greatly simplified and depend mainly on one leading twist
distribution amplitude of the light meson. As a result, relations between these
form factors arise naturally. At the considered accuracy these relations
reproduce the results obtained in the literature. Moreover, since the explicit
dependence on the leading twist distribution amplitudes is preserved, these
relations may be more useful to simulate the experimental data and extract the
information on the distribution amplitude.Comment: 1+16 pages, no figure
