Description

The calculation of local form factors involved in the SM predictions of semileptonic $B$-meson decays at low-$q^2$ is a crucial ingredient in the assessment of the $B$-anomalies.
We revisit their calculation in QCD Light-Cone Sum Rule with $B$-meson Light-Cone Distribution Amplitudes. In our strategy, we bypass the quark-hadron duality (QHD) approximation which usually contributes an unknown and potentially large systematic error to the prediction of form factors.
We trade this improvement for an increased reliance on higher-order contributions in perturbation theory. Unlike the systematic error from QHD, truncation errors are assessable and systematically improvable, hence allowing robust predictions of form factors.
