We compute the radiative corrections to the process of two-pion production in association with a hard photon in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation by taking into account the non-perturbative structure of the pion in the one-loop calculation. For this…

We discuss the evaluation of the transition form factor (TFF) $F^{\gamma*\gamma\pi^0}(Q^2)$ by means of QCD theory and by state-space reconstruction from topological data analysis. We first calculate this quantity in terms of quark-gluon…
We have calculated the Wandzura-Wilczek contribution to the twist-3 part of $\gamma^*\gamma\to 2\pi$ amplitude. It describes interaction of the longitudinally polarized virtual photon with the real one, and it is suppressed by 1/Q, where…
We present a recent treatment of the $\pi^0\gamma^\star\gamma$ transition form factor in the coupled Schwinger-Dyson and Bethe-Salpeter approach to stress the desirability of measuring it at CEBAF.
We report a measurement of the differential cross section of $\pi^0$ pair production in single-tag two-photon collisions, $\gamma^* \gamma \to \pi^0 \pi^0$, in $e^+ e^-$ scattering. The cross section is measured for $Q^2$ up to 30 GeV$^2$,…
We show that in fully-self-consistent treatments of the pion; namely, its static properties and elastic and transition form factors, the asymptotic limit of the product Q^2 G_{\gamma * \gamma \pi ^0}(Q^2), determined a priori by the…
A phenomenological analysis of $K\to \pi\pi\gamma$ ($K_L\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ and $K^+\to\pi^+\pi^0\gamma$) with the direct emission photon is carried out beyond the leading order in the chiral perturbation theory. We show that the…
