The radiative transition form factors of the pseudoscalar mesons {$\pi$, $\eta$, $\eta'$} and the vector mesons {$\rho$, $\omega$, $\phi$} are restudied with $\pi$-$\eta$-$\eta'$ and $\rho$-$\omega$-$\phi$ in tri-meson-mixing pattern, which…

We investigate the form factors for pseudoscalar-meson-photon transitions by means of dispersive QCD sum rules and demonstrate that most of the measurements done so far (in particular, those by BaBar for $\eta,$ $\eta',$ and $\eta_c$ and…
We present an extended analysis of the data for the pion-photon transition form factor from different experiments, CELLO, CLEO, and BaBar, and discuss various theoretical approaches which try to reason from them. We focus on the divergent…
The production of pseudo scalar, Eeta, Eta-prime, and vector, Omega, Rho, Phi, mesons in NN collisions at threshold-near energies is analyzed within a covariant effective meson-nucleon theory. It is shown that a good description of cross…

A valuable approach to the analysis of hadron physics observables is provided by QCD's equations-of-motion; namely, the Dyson-Schwinger equations. Drawing from a diverse collection of predictions, we revisit: $\gamma \gamma^* \to$ neutral…

We investigate the pseudoscalar transition form factors of nucleon for quasi-elastic scattering and \Delta resonance production in tau-neutrino nucleon scattering via the charged current interactions. Although the pseudoscalar form factors…
