Abstract

We study the transition form factors of the light vector to pseudoscalar mesons as functions of the momentum transfer q2q^2 within the light-front quark model. With these form factors, we calculate the decay branching ratios of all possible modes for VP+V\to P\ell^+\ell^- (V=ωV=\omega and ϕ\phi, P=π0P=\pi^0, η\eta and η\eta^{\prime} and =e\ell=e and μ\mu). We find that our numerical results fit with the data, such as those of ωπ0+\omega \to \pi^0 \ell^+\ell^- and ϕπ0e+e\phi\to \pi^0 e^+e^- by NA60 and ϕηe+e\phi \to\eta e^+e^- by SND. We also predict that the branching ratios of ϕπ0μ+μ\phi \to \pi^0 \mu^+\mu^-, ωηe+e\omega\to \eta e^+e^-, ωημ+μ\omega\to \eta \mu^+\mu^-, ϕημ+μ\phi\to \eta \mu^+\mu^- and ϕηe+e\phi\to \eta^{\prime} e^+e^- to be aroud 3.48×1063.48\times 10^{-6}, 3.22×1063.22\times 10^{-6}, 1.81×1091.81\times 10^{-9}, 6.86×1066.86\times 10^{-6} 2.97×1072.97\times 10^{-7}, respectively.
