The form factor for the anomalous process gamma pi^+ -> pi^+ pi^0, which is presently being measured at CEBAF, is calculated in the Schwinger-Dyson approach in conjunction with an impulse approximation. The form factors obtained by us are…

We investigate what can be learnt about the $\eta$ -$\eta'$ mixing by means of dispersive representation of axial anomaly. We show that our method leads to the strong bounds for the $\eta-\eta'$ mixing angle: $\theta = -15.3^o \pm 1^o$.…
