abstract
We present a quantitative analysis of the electromagnetic pion form factor in the light-cone sum rule approach, including radiative corrections and higher-twist effects. The comparison to the existing data favors the asymptotic profile of the pion distribution amplitude and allows to estimate the deviation: $(\int du/u \phi_\pi(u))/ (\int du/u \phi^{\rm as}_\pi(u))=$ 1.1$\pm$ 0.1 at the scale 1 GeV. Special attention is payed to the precise definition and interplay of soft and hard contributions at intermediate momentum transfer, and to matching of the sum rule to the perturbative QCD prediction. We observe a strong numerical cancellation between the soft (end point) contribution and power suppressed hard contributions of higher twist, so that the total nonperturbative correction to the usual pQCD result turns out to be of order 30% for $Q^2\sim 1$ GeV$^2$.

$D\to P \ell^+\ell^-$ decays assisted by QCD light-cone sum rules
A new LCSR-assisted dispersion method predicts the D+ to pi+ l+ l- branching fraction and shows that the short-distance c to u l+ l- transition is practically invisible in the Standard Model.
