We calculate target fragmentation in $p p \to n X$ and $\gamma p \to n X $ reactions in the meson cloud picture of the nucleon. The $p p \to n X$ reaction is used to fix the $pn\pi^+$ form factor for three different models. We take into…

The quark structure of the $f_2(1270)$ meson has, for many years, been assumed to be a pure quark-antiquark ($q\bar{q}$) resonance with quantum numbers $J^{PC} = 2^{++}$. Recently, it was proposed that the $f_2(1270)$ is a molecular state…
