We present a formula that allows one to calculate the pion form factor in the timelike region 2mpi <= sqrt{s} <= 4mpi in lattice QCD. The form factor quantifies the contribution of two-pion states to the vacuum polarization. It must be…
We revisit $F_\pi(Q^2)$ and $F_{P\gamma}(Q^2)$, $P=\pi,\eta,\eta'$, making use of the local-duality (LD) version of QCD sum rules. We give arguments, that the LD sum rule provides reliable predictions for these form factors at $Q^2 \ge 5-6$…

We extend the QCD sum rule analysis of the \gamma^*\gamma^* -->\pi^o form factor into the region where one of the photons has small virtuality: q^2 << Q^2 > 1 GeV^2. In this kinematics, one should perform an additional factorization of…
We study consistently the pion's static observables and the elastic and \gamma*\gamma -> \pi^0 transition form factors within a light-front model. Consistency requires that all calculations are performed within a given model with the same…
