We discuss the two and three particle light-cone distribution amplitudes (DAs) of pseudoscalar nonsinglet mesons of twist 3 and 4. Using nonlocal operator identities and conformal expansion, we derive closed expressions for several DAs. We also include meson-mass corrections which prove to be dominant in the twist 4 DAs of K and eta mesons. Explicit parametrizations for the DAs of pi, K and eta mesons are given, with the numerical input parameters determined from QCD sum rules.

  1. Exclusive photoproduction of a di-meson pair with large invariant mass

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Calculations of di-meson photoproduction amplitudes at leading order show cross sections up to 100 times larger than single-meson cases, enabling better GPD extraction.

    The paper proposes using two-photon exchange interference in e+e- to (pi pi)(pi pi) to access chiral-odd dimeson GDAs that encode spin-orbit correlations in spin-zero mesons.
