Improved B→ K*0(1430) transition form factors at next-to-leading order in light cone sum rules
Abstract
We present an improved determination of the B→ K0*(1430) transition form factors using light-cone sum rules (LCSR) with an expansion near the light cone. We include the one-loop radiative corrections to the twist-2 and asymptotic twist-3 distribution amplitudes of the scalar meson and perform the calculation consistently in the MS̅ scheme. It allowed us to quantify the impact of radiative corrections on the form factors for each twist. A daughter sum rule is used from the B→ K0*(1430) LCSR to ascertain Borel mass and threshold parameter simultaneously. We find that the dominant theoretical uncertainties arise from the K0*(1430) distribution amplitudes and its decay constant. Our results are presented in a form that facilitates the incorporation of future improvements in these nonperturbative inputs, including those from lattice QCD and experimental measurements, and can be readily extended to other scalar mesons.
