Predicting the \$B -> \rho\$ form factors using AdS/QCD Distribution Amplitudes for the \$\rho\$ meson

, , , and . (Aug 16, 2013)

Abstract

We use QCD light-cone sum rules (LCSR) with holographic anti de Sitter/Chromodynamics (AdS/QCD) Distribution Amplitudes (DAs) for the \$\rho\$ meson to predict the form factors that govern the leading amplitudes of the rare radiative \$B -> \gamma\$ decay and the semileptonic decay \$B -> l \nu\$. We test the Isgur-Wise relation between the radiative and semileptonic form factors. We also compute the total width (in units of \$|V\_ub|^2\$) for the semileptonic decay \$B -> l \nu\$ as well as ratios of partial decay widths which are independent of \$|V\_ub|\$.
