The $D\pi$ form factors from analyticity and unitarity

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2012-07-25 v1

Abstract

We study the shape parameters of the DπD\pi scalar and vector form factors using as input dispersion relations and unitarity for the moments of suitable heavy-light correlators evaluated with Operator Product Expansions, including O(αs2)O(\alpha_s^2) terms in perturbative QCD. For the scalar form factor, a low energy theorem and phase information on the unitarity cut are implemented to further constrain the shape parameters. We finally determine points on the real axis and isolate regions in the complex energy plane where zeros of the form factors are excluded.
