A phenomenological analysis of radiative $V\to P\gamma$ and $P\to V\gamma$ decays is performed in order to determine the gluonic content of the $\eta^\prime$ wave function. Our result shows that there is no evidence for such a gluonium…
In this thesis we discuss a rational and data-based description of the single- and double-virutal transition form factors of the lightest pseudoscalar mesons. We obtain an accurate description of these in the spacelike and low-energy…
We explain the application of a recently developed analytic continuation method to extract the electromagnetic transition form factors for the nucleon resonances ($N^*$) within a dynamical coupled-channel model of meson-baryon…
The electromagnetic N-$\Delta$ transition form factors are calculated in the framework of a formally covariant constituent diquark model. As a spin-3/2 particle the $\Delta$ is assumed to be a bound state of a quark and an axial-vector…
It has been realized for a long time that knowing the eta and eta^prime wave functions in terms of quark and gluon components probes our understanding of non-perturbative QCD dynamics. Great effort has been given to this challenge -- yet no…
We explain how an analytic continuation we have developed recently is applied to determine the residues of the nucleon resonance poles within a dynamical coupled-channel model of meson-baron reactions. A procedure for evaluating the…
We compute the contribution of the gluonic component of the energy-momentum tensor (EMT) to the angular momentum density in various decompositions. We use the light-front Hamiltonian technique, and a two-component formalism in light-front…
The $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$ transition form factors in the space-like region are analyzed at low and intermediate energies in a model-independent way through the use of rational approximants. The slope and curvature parameters of the form…
Working with Resonance Chiral Theory, within the two resonance multiplets saturation scheme, we satisfy leading (and some subleading) chiral and asymptotic QCD constraints and accurately fit simultaneously the $\pi^{0},\eta,\eta^{\prime}$…
Present-day experimental and phenomenological situation about pseudoscalar ($\pi^0$, $\eta$, $\eta'$) meson transition form factors is briefly reviewed. Necessity of more sophisticated behaviours in time-like region of these form factors is…
We propose a mechanism which can explain the large BR(B-> X_s eta')~ 10^(-3) observed by CLEO. In this mechanism, eta' is produced by the fusion of two gluons, one from QCD penguin b->sg and the other one emitted by the light quark inside…
We have studied the applications of the anomaly sum rule to the transition form factors of light pseudoscalar mesons: $\pi^0$, $\eta$ and $\eta'$. This nonperturbative QCD approach can be used even if the QCD factorization is broken. The…
Transition form factors $F_{P\gamma^*\gamma^{(*)}}$ of pseudoscalar mesons are studied within the framework of the domain model of confinement, chiral symmetry breaking and hadronization. In this model, the QCD vacuum is described by the…
We discuss how electromagnetic properties provide useful tests of the nature of resonances, and we study these properties for the N*(1535) which appears dynamically generated from the strong interaction of mesons and baryons. Within this…
A formalism based on a chiral quark model ($\chi$QM) approach complemented with a one-gluon exchange model, to take into account the breakdown of the $SU(6)\otimes O(3)$ symmetry, is presented. The configuration mixing of wave functions for…
Probing the $\bar ss$ content of the $\eta$ and $\eta'$ mesons and considering mixing between these states as well as gluonic contributions, the form factors responsible for semileptonic $D_s \to (\eta, \eta') l \nu$ transitions are…
The results of mixing angle measurement for $\eta'$, $\eta$ mesons generated in charge exchange reactions with $\pi^{-}$ and $K^{-}$ beams are preseneted. When the $\eta'$, $\eta$ mesons are described in nonstrange(NS)--strange(S) quark…
We evaluate the impact factor of the transition gamma* -> rhoT taking into account the twist 3 contributions. We show that a gauge invariant expression is obtained with the help of QCD equations of motion. Our results are free of end-point…
