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.

First measurement of A_FB and F_H in B+→π+μ+μ− decay is consistent with Standard Model predictions in both high- and low-mass dimuon regions.
A symmetry-guided phenomenological model organizes leading current-current operators for charged-current decays of heavy-light mesons and reproduces heavy-quark scaling relations for decay constants and form factors.
Reviews unitarity bounds for B-meson form factors, shows standard methods apply rigorously only to B→π, develops GG parametrization for general cases, and delivers combined-analysis predictions with public supplementary material.
Belle II data on the rare B decay constrains the non-minimal UED model to require the inverse compactification radius to be at least ~900 GeV, while the minimal version yields no bound.
