We present a short review on the properties of heavy and light mesons’light-cone wavefunctions(LCWFs),and their distribution amplitudes(DAs).The B meson LCWFs can be treated by taking the heavy quark limit(mb!1)and by using the heavy quark effective theory.Furthermore,we propose a simple model for the B meson wavefunctions with 3-particle Fock states’contributions,whose behaviors are controlled by two parameters K and d.Using such model,the form factors FB!p t;0;Tand FB!K t;0;Tin large recoil region are studied up to Oe1=m2bT within the kTfactorization approach.On the other hand,we adopt BrodskyHuang-Lepage(BHL)prescription for constructing the WFs of the lighter pseudoscalars as gc;D-meson,pion,kaon,ge0T and etc.Such BHL-like model can be conveniently extended to construct the LCWFs for light scalar or vector mesons.Within such model the longitudinal distributions of those WFs are basically determined by a parameter B,whose value can be determined via a global fit of experimental data.
We perform an analysis of all existing experimental data on the pion-photon transition form factor （TFF）. In the calculation, we include the next-to-leading order correction to the valence-quark contribution and estimate the non-valence-quark contribution by a phenomenological model based on the TFF＇s limiting behavior at both Q^2→0 and Q^2→∞. At present, the pion distribution amplitude （DA） is not definitely determined, it is helpful to have a pion DA model that can mimic all the behaviors suggested in the literature. For the purpose, we adopt the conventional model for pion wavefunction/DA whose broadness is dominantly controlled by a single parameter B. We fix the DA parameters by using the CELLO, CLEO, BABAR and Belle data within small Q^2 region （Q^2≤15 GeV^2）, where all the data are consistent with each other. The pion-photon TFF is then extrapolated into a larger Q^2 region. It is found that we still need more data at a large Q^2 region in order to determine the precise value of B, and we hope that the definite behavior of pion DA can be concluded finally by the consistent data in the coming future.
