The pion and kaon distribution amplitudes at the physical point from quasi-DA matrix elements

ORAL

Abstract

We present our lattice QCD results on the light-cone distribution amplitude (LCDA) of the Pion and the Kaon from their quasi-DA, the moving-pion-to-vacuum matrix element of a bilocal quark bilinear. We determine the first few Gegenbauer moments of Pion and Kaon from a leading-twist OPE-based analysis and reconstruct their x-dependence based on fits to phenomenological Ansatze. We also investigate the dependence of the asymmetric part of Kaon DA on the dialed amount of SU(3) breaking.
