In the framework of pertubative QCD it is argued that in the elastic $ed$-scattering at $Q^{2}\sim$ few $(GeV/c)^{2}$ the light-cone-frame helicity-flip amplitudes could not be omitted. The obtained $\frac{B}{A}$ ratio of Rosenbluth…
In this article, we calculate the vector form factors $f^+_{K\pi}(Q^2)$ and $f^-_{K\pi}(Q^2)$ within the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach. The numerical values of the $f^+_{K\pi}(Q^2)$ are compatible with the existing…

The properties of the non-forward quark-quark correlation function are examined. We derive constraints on the correlation function from the transformation properties of the fundamental fields of QCD occurring in its definition. We further…
