abstract

We present an improved calculation of $B\to$ light pseudoscalar formfactors from light-cone sum rules, including one-loop radiative corrections to twist-2 and twist-3 contributions, and leading order twist-4 corrections. The total theoretical uncertainty of our results at zero momentum transfer is 10 to 13% and can be improved, at least in part, by reducing the uncertainty of hadronic input parameters, in particular those describing the twist-2 distribution amplitudes of the pi, K and eta. We present our results in a way which details the dependence of the formfactors on these parameters and facilitates the incorporation of future updates of their values from e.g. lattice calculations.
