The pion distribution amplitude (DA) can be related to the fundamental QCD Green's functions as a function of the quark self-energy and the quark-pion vertex, which in turn are associated with the pion wave function through the…
We analyze $F_\pi(Q^2)$ and $F_{P\gamma}(Q^2)$, $P=\pi,\eta,\eta'$, within the local-duality (LD) version of QCD sum rules, which allows one to obtain predictions for hadron form factors in a broad range of momentum transfers. To probe the…
