It is shown that a chiral quark model of the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio type can be used to describe "soft"-momenta parts of the amplitudes with large momentum transfer. As a sample, the processes \gamma^* --> \gamma (\pi,\eta,\eta') where one of…
We present an improved calculation on the pionic twist-3 distribution amplitudes $\phi^{\pi}_{p}$ and $\phi^{\pi}_{\sigma}$, which are studied within the QCD sum rules. By adding all the uncertainties in quadrature, it is found that…
A global fit to the data from different collaborations (CELLO, CLEO, BaBar) on the pion-photon transition form factor is carried out using light-cone sum rules. The analysis includes the next-to-leading QCD radiative corrections and the…
We derive the minimal Fock-state expansions of the pion and the photon wave functions in light-cone formalism, then we calculate the pion-photon and the photon-pion transition form factors of $\gamma ^{\ast}\pi ^{0}\to \gamma $ and $\gamma…
In this work, the two-photon-exchange (TPE) effects in $e^+e^- \rightarrow \pi^+ \pi^-$ at small $\sqrt{s}$ are discussed within a hadronic model. In the limit $m_e\rightarrow 0$, the TPE contribution to the amplitude can be described by…
We describe the present status of the pion distribution amplitude (DA) as it originates from several sources: (i) a nonperturbative approach based on QCD sum rules with nonlocal condensates, (ii) an $O(\alpha_s)$ QCD analysis of the CLEO…
We describe results for the pion distribution amplitude (PDA) at the non-perturbative scale $\mu=~$2GeV by projecting the Poincar\'e-covariant Bethe-Salpeter wave-function onto the light-front and use it to investigate the ultraviolet…
A novel soft-photon amplitude is proposed to replace the conventional Low soft-photon amplitude for nucleon-nucleon bremsstrahlung. Its derivation is guided by the standard meson-exchange model of the nucleon-nucleon interaction. This new…
We study the scaling regime of nucleon - anti-nucleon annihilation into a deeply virtual photon and a meson, bar p N -> gamma* pi. We obtain the leading twist amplitude in the kinematical region where it factorizes into an antiproton…
In the scaling regime, amplitudes for backward virtual Compton scattering and hadron annihilation into two photons depend on structure functions that describe the hadron-photon transition at the partonic level. We construct simple…

Exclusive two-pion production near threshold in the collision of a highly virtual photon with a real one offers a new possibility to unravel the partonic content of hadrons. We explain the dynamics of this regime, i.e. the separation of the…
We present the state-of-the-art lattice QCD calculation of the pion and kaon light-cone distribution amplitudes (DAs) using large-momentum effective theory. The calculation is done at three lattice spacings $a\approx\{0.06,0.09,0.12\}$ fm…
Generalized parton distributions (GPDs) are 3-dimensional (3D) structure functions for hadrons, and they are important for solving the proton spin puzzle including partonic orbital-angular-momentum contributions. The $s$-$t$ crossed…
