Semi-leptonic B-decays and the two-pion distribution amplitudes

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-01-07 v3

Abstract

We show that the semi-leptonic decay B+ -> pi+ pi- l+ \nu_l can be used as a source of information for two-pion distribution amplitudes. The connection between these amplitudes and the B-meson decay width is achieved by the light cone sum rule method. We show the relevant distribution amplitudes and give the formula for the decay width.
