Quark-gluon correlation inside the B-meson from QCD sum rules based on heavy quark effective theory Tetsuo Nishikawa (Ryotokuji U) Kazuhiro Tanaka (Juntendo U)
Motivation Exclusive decay of B meson provides important information for understanding CP violation. In the description of exclusive B-decay based on QCD factorization, a very important role is played by the light cone distribution amplitude (LCDA) of B-meson. However, surprisingly, little attention to B-meson’s LCDA was received in past. Our poor knowledge about it limits to extract important physics from experimental data. This work is a part of an attempt to precisely determine B-meson’s LCDA based on QCD.

NLO perturbative corrections: very large for τ→ 0 and 10-30% level for moderate τ Nonperturbative corrections (dim. 5 and dim. 4 operators) are important (20-30% level) Effects from are significant in dim. 5 contributions. “3” “ 3+ 4” “ 3+4+ 5” LO L-N Behavior of B-meson’s LCDA Kawamura and Tanaka, PLB 673(2009)201
Extrapolation to long distance region In the long distance region, OPE diverges. For large distances, we must rely on a model (Lee-Neubert’s ansatz is employed here). smoothly connect the OPE and the model descriptions at certain distance LCDA for entire distances OPE up to dim. 5 ops.

LCDA enters the B-decay amplitude through its inverse moment. Stable behavior for Switching off λ E and λ H, stable behavior is not seen. Inverse moment of LCDA Kawamura and Tanaka, PLB 673(2009)201 The above results demonstrate the impact of Reliable and precise determinations of is necessary.
Only one HQET sum rule estimate by Grozin and Neubert (1997) is known. The sum rule analysis for λ E and λ H is not complete, unless the calculation at NLO accuracy (dim.6 and O(α s ) correction to dim.5) is carried out. Updating the estimate of λ E and λ H is needed.

Summary λ E and λ H (quark-gluon correlation inside the B-meson) play important role in B-meson’s LCDA. HQET sum rule for λ E and λ H up to dim.6 operator in OPE radiative correction to the mixed condensate Small contribution of dim.6 term OPE seems to converge at this order. Radiative correction significantly lowers λ E and λ H. Renormalization group improvement etc. Matching the OPE of LCDA Estimation of the inverse moment of LCDA ( )
On the results Contribution of dim.6 is less than 1% OPE seems to converge at this order. O(α s )-correction to dim.5 is significantly large and tends to suppress λ H and λ E. After inclusion of O(α s )-correction, stability of the splitting becomes worse.
