Abstract: (arXiv)
We investigate the twist-3 light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) of the scalar mesons , and within the QCD sum rules. The QCD sum rules are improved by a consistent treatment of the sizable -quark mass effects within the framework of the background field approach. Adopting the valence quark component as the dominant structure of the scalar mesons, our estimation for their masses are close to the measured , and . From the sum rules, we obtain the first two non-zero moments of the twist-3 LCDAs : and ; those of the twist-3 LCDAs : and ; and those of the twist-3 LCDAs : and , respectively. As an application of those twist-3 LCDAs, we study the transition form factors by introducing proper chiral currents into the correlator, which is constructed such that the twist-3 LCDAs give dominant contribution and the twist-2 LCDAs make negligible contribution. Our results of the transition form factors at the large recoil region are consistent with those obtained in the literature, which inversely shows the present twist-3 LCDAs are acceptable.Note:
