We study the electromagnetic form factor of the pion and kaons at low-energies with the use of Chiral Perturbation Theory. The analysis is performed within the three flavour framework and at next-to-next-to-leading order. We explain…
We discuss the nonleading, ``soft" contribution to the pion form factor at intermediate momentum transfer within operator product expansion approach. We argue, that the corresponding contribution can temporarily {\bf simulate} the leading…

We use recent data on K^+ -> pi^+e^+e^-, together with known values for the pion form factor, to derive the kaon electromagnetic form factor for 0 <q^2 <0.125 (GeV/c)^2. The results are then compared with predictions of the Linear sigma…
We review some of the recent developments regarding mass, angular momentum and pressure forces inside hadrons. These properties are all encoded in the energy-momentum tensor of the system, which is described at the non-perturbative level in…
