Abstract
We update the theoretical framework for the QCD calculation of transition form factors and at large photon virtualities including full next-to-leading order analysis of perturbative corrections, the charm quark contribution, and taking into account -flavor breaking effects and the axial anomaly contributions to the power-suppressed twist-four distribution amplitudes. The numerical analysis of the existing experimental data is performed with these improvements.
