Recently it has been shown that symmetries emerging in the heavy quark and large recoil energy limit impose various relations on form factors that parametrise the decay of B mesons into light mesons. These symmetries are broken by perturbative effects. In this paper we discuss the structure of heavy-to-light form factors including such effects and compute symmetry-breaking corrections to first order in the strong coupling. As an application of our results we consider the forward-backward asymmetry zero in the rare decay B -> V l^+ l^- and the possibility to constrain potential new physics contributions to the Wilson coefficient C_9.

  1. QCD-factorization amplitudes from flavour symmetries: beyond the $SU(3)$ symmetric case

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A data-driven SU(3)-breaking analysis of B to PP decays yields QCD-factorization amplitudes that resemble dynamical predictions and require no enhanced annihilation terms.

  2. Symmetry-Breaking Effects on Form Factors and Observables in $B \to K_0^*(1430)\mu^+\mu^-$ Decay

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Perturbative symmetry-breaking corrections shift the branching ratio and normal lepton polarization asymmetry by ~3% in B → K0*(1430) μ+μ−, so larger experimental deviations would indicate new physics.
