Analysis of the vector form factors $f^+_{Kπ}(Q^2)$ and $f^-_{Kπ}(Q^2)$ with light-cone QCD sum rules
Abstract
Description
In this article, we calculate the vector form factors $f^+_{Kπ}(Q^2)$ and $f^-_{Kπ}(Q^2)$ within the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach. The numerical values of the $f^+_{Kπ}(Q^2)$ are compatible with the existing theoretical calculations, the central value of the $f^+_{Kπ}(0)$, $f^+_{Kπ}(0)=0.97$, is in excellent agreement with the values from the chiral perturbation theory and lattice QCD. The values of the $|f^-_{Kπ}(0)|$ are very large comparing with the theoretical calculations and experimental data, and can not give any reliable predictions. At large momentum transfers with $Q^2> 5GeV^2$, the form factors $f^+_{Kπ}(Q^2)$ and $|f^-_{Kπ}(Q^2)|$ can either take up the asymptotic behavior of $\frac{1}{Q^2}$ or decrease more quickly than $\frac{1}{Q^2}$, more experimental data are needed to select the ideal sum rules.
