Generalized parton distributions for weakly bound systems from light-front quantum mechanics

Abstract

We present generalized parton distributions for weakly bound systems on the light cone in order to build intuition about the light-front formalism. Physics at the crossover is reviewed in terms of the light-cone Fock space representation. Furthermore, we link light-cone Fock components to the equal (light-cone) time projection of the covariant Bethe-Salpeter amplitude. Continuity of the distributions arises naturally in this weak binding model.
