Abstract

We investigate a model QCD sum rule for the pion wave function φπ(x)\varphi_{\pi}(x) based on the non-diagonal correlator whose perturbative spectral density vanishes and Φ(x,M2)\Phi(x,M^2), the theoretical side of the sum rule, consists of condensate contributions only. We study the dependence of Φ(x,M2)\Phi(x,M^2) on the Borel parameter M2M^2 and observe that Φ(x,M2)\Phi(x,M^2) has a humpy form, with the humps becoming more and more pronounced when M2M^2 increases. We demonstrate that this phenomenon reflects just the oscillatory nature of the higher states wave functions, while the lowest state wave function φπ(x)\varphi_{\pi}(x) extracted from our QCD sum rule analysis,has no humps, is rather narrow and its shape is close to the asymptotic form φπas(x)=6x(1x)\varphi_{\pi}^{as}(x) = 6x(1-x).
