New results onBπ,K,ηdecay form factors from light-cone sum rules

Abstract
We present an improved calculation of B light pseudoscalar form factors from light-cone sum rules, including one-loop radiative corrections to twist-2 and twist-3 contributions, and leading-order twist-4 corrections. The total theoretical uncertainty of our results at zero momentum transfer is 10 to 13% and can be improved, at least in part, by reducing the uncertainty of hadronic input parameters, in particular, those describing the twist-2 distribution amplitudes of the π, K, and η. We present our results in a way which details the dependence of the form factors on these parameters and facilitates the incorporation of future updates of their values from, e.g., lattice calculations.
