We study the axial amplitudes for the N-Delta transition in models with quarks and chiral mesons. A set of constraints on the pion field is imposed which enforces PCAC and the off-diagonal Goldberger-Treiman relation. The quark contribution…

Recent experiment indicates that the behavior exhibited by the ratios $E_{1^+}/M_{1^+}$ and $S_{1^+}/M_{1^+}$ of the $\gamma^* N \leftrightarrow \Delta$ transition remain small and negative for $Q^2 \le 4.0 GeV^2$. It implies that the…
We discuss electro-magnetic and weak production of pions on nucleons and show how results of experiments and their interpretation in terms of chiral quark models with explicit meson degrees of freedom combine to reveal the ground-state…
We provide an in-depth analysis of the $\pi$ distribution amplitude in terms of two different Gegenbauer representations. Detailed predictions for the $\pi-\gamma$ transition form factor are presented, obtained with light-cone sum rules.…
