Lightcone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) of heavy meson within heavy quark effective theory (HQET) are crucial for predicting physical observables in B decays, but unfortunately there is no first-principle result due to severe challenges. After analyzing these challenges, we propose a realistic method to determine heavy meson LCDA. We utilize equal-time correlations and incorporate a dynamic quark field for a fast moving heavy quark. To verify this method, we make use of lattice QCD simulation on a lattice ensemble with spacing a=0.05187\,fm. The preliminary findings for HQET LCDAs qualitatively align with phenomenological models, and the fitted result for the first inverse moment λB−1 is consistent with the experimentally constrain from B→γℓνℓ. We explore how our findings can reduce model uncertainties in predictions of heavy-to-light form factors at large recoil. These results demonstrate the promise of our method in providing first-principle predictions for heavy meson LCDAs.
