In this work we use the framework of the Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter equations to compute Light-Cone Distribution Amplitudes of heavy-light mesons and quarkonia. In studying the meson properties, we introduce a flavor dependence in the heavy-quark sector of the Bethe-Salpeter ladder kernel which yields improved numerical results for masses and leptonic decay constants of the pseudoscalar $D$, $D_s$, $B$ and $B_s$ mesons. Finally, the corresponding heavy-light Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes are projected onto the light front and we reconstruct the distribution amplitudes of the mesons in the full theory.

The ladder kernel of the Bethe-Salpeter equation is amended by introducing a different flavor dependence of the dressing functions in the heavy-quark sector. Compared with earlier work this allows for the simultaneous calculation of the mass spectrum and leptonic decay constants of light pseudoscalar mesons, the $D_u$, $D_s$, $B_u$, $B_s$ and $B_c$ mesons and the heavy quarkonia $eta_c$ and $eta_b$ within the same framework at a physical pion mass. The corresponding Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes are projected onto the light front and we reconstruct the distribution amplitudes of the mesons in the full theory. A comparison with the first inverse moment of the heavy meson distribution amplitude in heavy quark effective theory is made.
We present the first lattice determination of the two lowest Gegenbauer moments of the leading-twist pion and kaon light-cone distribution amplitudes with full control of all errors. The calculation is carried out on 35 different CLS ensembles with $N_f=2+1$ flavors of dynamical Wilson-clover fermions. These cover a multitude of pion and kaon mass combinations (including the physical point) and 5 different lattice spacings down to $a=0.039,$fm. The momentum smearing technique and a new operator basis are employed to reduce statistical fluctuations and to improve the overlap with the ground states. The results are obtained from a combined chiral and continuum limit extrapolation that includes three separate trajectories in the quark mass plane. The present arXiv version (v3) includes an Addendum where we update the results using the recently calculated three-loop matching factors for the conversion from the RI/SMOM to the $overline{text{MS}}$ scheme. We find $a_2^pi=0.116^{+19}_{-20}$ for the pion, $a_1^K=0.0525^{+31}_{-33}$ and $a_2^K=0.106^{+15}_{-16}$ for the kaon. We also include the previous values, which were obtained with two-loop matching.
We present results of the first ab initio lattice QCD calculation of the normalization constants and first moments of the leading twist distribution amplitudes of the full baryon octet, corresponding to the small transverse distance limit of the associated S-wave light-cone wave functions. The P-wave (higher twist) normalization constants are evaluated as well. The calculation is done using $N_f=2+1$ flavors of dynamical (clover) fermions on lattices of different volumes and pion masses down to 222 MeV. Significant SU(3) flavor symmetry violation effects in the shape of the distribution amplitudes are observed.
We present lattice QCD results for the wave function normalization constants and the first moments of the distribution amplitudes for the lowest-lying baryon octet. The analysis is based on a large number of $N_f=2+1$ ensembles comprising multiple trajectories in the quark mass plane including physical pion (and kaon) masses, large volumes, and, most importantly, five different lattice spacings down to $a=0.039,mathrm{fm}$. This allows us to perform a controlled extrapolation to the continuum and infinite volume limits by a simultaneous fit to all available data. We demonstrate that the formerly observed violation of flavor symmetry breaking constraints can, indeed, be attributed to discretization effects that vanish in the continuum limit.
Accumulating evidence indicates that soft quark+quark (diquark) correlations play an important role in the structure and interactions of hadrons constituted from three or more valence-quarks; so, it is worth developing insights into diquark structure. Using a leading-order truncation of those equations needed to solve continuum two-valence-body bound-state problems, the leading-twist two-parton distribution amplitudes (DAs) of light-quark scalar and pseudovector diquarks are calculated. The diquark DAs are narrower and taller than the asymptotic profile that characterises mesons. Consequently, the valence quasiparticles in a diquark are less likely to carry a large light-front fraction of the systems total momentum than those in a meson. These features may both influence the form of baryon DAs and be transmitted to diquark distribution functions (DFs), in which case their impact will be felt, e.g. in the protons $u$ and $d$ valence-quark DFs.
