New Progress in Time-Like Exclusive Processes

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v3

Abstract

We discuss a necessary nonvalence contribution in timelike exclusive processes. Following a Schwinger-Dyson type of approach, we relate the nonvalence contribution to an ordinary light-front wave function that has been extensively tested in the spacelike exclusive processes. A complicate multi-body energy denominator is exactly cancelled in summing the light-front time-ordered amplitudes. Applying our method to K3K_{\ell3} and D0K+νlD^0\to K^- \ell^+ \nu_l where a rather substantial nonvalence contribution is expected, we find not only an improvement in comparing with the experimental data but also a covariance(i.e. frame-indepndence) of existing light-front constituent quark model.
