In this report, I discuss the current state of the problem of the axial anomaly in quantum electrodynamics (QED) and quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and how the axial anomaly is related to the structure of the vacuum in QCD. In QCD, the vacuum…

High precision measurements of the differential cross sections for $\pi^0$ photoproduction at forward angles for two nuclei, $^{12}$C and $^{208}$Pb, have been performed for incident photon energies of 4.9 - 5.5 GeV to extract the ${\pi^0…

A thermal Finite Energy QCD Sum Rule is used to determine the temperature behaviour of the $\omega \rho \pi$ strong coupling. This coupling decreases with increasing $T$ and vanishes at the critical temperature, a likely signal for quark…

The rates and spectra of the anomalous $\eta\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ and $\eta' \to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ decays are calculated. The approach is based on the effective meson Lagrangian obtained in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with vector and…

We perform a lattice QCD calculation of the \pi^0\to\gamma\gamma transition form factor and the associated decay width. We use a Euclidean time integral of the relevant three-point function to compute the decay amplitude for two-photon…

We calculate the neutral pion ($\pi^0$) to off-shell two photon ($\gamma^*\gamma^*$) transition form factor in lattice QCD. The transition form factor can be extracted from the three-point function of the form…

The introduction of axions gives rise to additional one-loop diagrams for the two-photon decays of neutral pions via axion-pion mixing. We compute this correction that has been overlooked in existing calculations, within the framework of…

The $\gamma^* \pi^0 \rightarrow \gamma$ form factor, including the extension off the pion mass-shell, is obtained from a generalized impulse approximation within a QCD-based model field theory known to provide an excellent description of…

We have used the PIBETA large acceptance detector for a precise measurement of the $\pi^+ \to e^+\nu\gamma$ radiative decay at rest, with broad phase space coverage. Using the CVC value for the pion vector form factor, $F_V = 0.0259(5)$, we…

The conservation of the vector current and the axial anomaly responsible for the $\pi_0 \to \gamma \gamma$ decay amplitude are obtained in leading order within the Taylor-Lagrange formulation of fields considered as operator-valued…

The $\pi^0 \gamma\gamma$ vertex for virtual photons of squared masses $q_1^2$ and $q_2^2$ plays a vital r\^ole in several physical processes; for example for $q_1^2<0$, $q_2^2<0$, in the two-photon physics reaction $e^+ e^-\to e^+ e^-…

The recent BaBar measurements of the $\gamma\gamma^{*}\to \pi^{0}$ transition form factor show spectacular deviation from perturbative QCD prediction for large space-like $Q^{2}$ up to $34\,\rm GeV^{2}$. When plotted against $Q^{2}$,…

We develop a QCD sum rule analysis of the form factor $F_{\gamma^*\gamma^*\pi^0}(q^2,Q^2)$ in the region where virtuality of one of the spacelike photons is small $q^2 \ll 1 GeV^2$ while another is large: $Q^2 \gapprox 1 GeV^2$. We…

We study the correction to the radiative $\pi^0$ decay width due to finite light quark mass. Using lattice QCD with the overlap fermion formulation, we calculate the three-point function of the form $<PV_\mu V_\nu>$ in the (Euclidean)…

A fundamental property of QCD is the presence of the chiral anomaly, which is the primary component of the $\pi^0\rightarrow\gamma\gamma$ decay amplitude. Based on this anomaly and its small ($\simeq$ 4.5%) chiral correction, a firm…

The recent BaBar measurements of the $\gamma\gamma^{*}\to \pi^{0}$ form factor show spectacular deviation from perturbative QCD computations for large space-like $Q^{2}$. At $34\,\rm GeV^{2}$ the data are more than 50% larger than…

We perform a lattice QCD calculation of the $\eta_c\to2\gamma$ decay width using a model-independent method that requires no momentum extrapolation of the off-shell form factors. This method also provides a straightforward and simple way to…

We propose an interpolating formula for the amplitude induced by the axial anomaly, concentrating on the $\pi^0\gamma^{\ast}\gamma^{\ast}$ transition form factor. The QCD corrections to this amplitude are generally described by two major…

The surprising results by the BarBar collaboration on the $\pi\gamma$ transition form factor require new thoughts about the high-$Q^2$ dependence of the form factors with virtual photons. We make use of the anomaly sum rule [J. Horejsi and…

The dependence of the $K^+ \to \pi^0 l^+ \nu_l \gamma$ decay width on the $T$-odd kinematical variable, $ \xi = {\vec q \cdot [\vec p_l \times \vec p_\pi]} / {M^3}$, is studied at the tree and one-loop levels of Standard Model. It is shown…
