The B-Meson Distribution Amplitude in QCD

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

The B-meson distribution amplitude is calculated using QCD sum rules. In particular we obtain an estimate for the integral relevant to exclusive B-decays \lambda_B = 460 \pm 110 MeV at the scale 1 GeV. A simple QCD-motivated parametrization of the distribution amplitude is suggested.
