The helicity dependence of the $\vec{\gamma} \vec{p} \to p \pi^0$ reaction has been measured for the first time in the photon energy range from 550 to 790 MeV. The experiment, performed at the Mainz microtron MAMI, used a 4$\pi$-detector…
The $\gamma^\ast N \to N^\ast (1520)$ reaction is studied in framework of the light cone QCD sum rules method. The sum rules for the multipole form factors, namely, for the magnetic dipole $G_M(Q^2)$, electric quadrupole $G_E(Q^2)$, and…
We discuss studies of the $Q^2$ dependence of the $f_2(1270)$ and $a_2 (1320)$ production cross sections in $\gamma^*(Q^2)\gamma $ collisions at current and coming into operation colliders with a high luminosity. Changing the dominant…

We extend a recently discovered set of relations for gauge-theory amplitudes to non-gluonic matter. For all MHV amplitudes we find that these can be made to hold for scalar/fermion/quark cases by inclusion of a factor derived via Ward…
