A dynamical model for pion electroproduction on the nucleon

Nuclear Theory 2014-11-18 v1

Abstract

We develop a Lorenz- and gauge-invariant dynamical model for pion electroproduction in the resonance region. The model is based on solving of the Salpeter (instantaneous) equation for the pion-nucleon interaction with a hadron-exchange potential. We find that the one-particle-exchange kernel of the Salpeter equation for pion electroproduction develops an unphysical singularity for a finite value of Q2Q^{2}. We analyse two methods of dealing with this problem. Results of our model are compared with recent single-polarization data for pion electroproduction.
