Hadron and Flavour Physics
- Carlos Vera (Universidad del Tolima)
The mechanism of hadron mass generation through the strong interactions of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) accounts for most matter in the visible universe. The pattern of its momentum dependence reflects in the internal structure of mesons and baryons. In this connection, we provide a selective overview of the progress in the computation of the hadron electromagnetic and transition form factors...
Light-front wave functions (LFWF) of hadrons of mesons can be derived from the projection of their Bethe-Salpeter wave functions on the light front. We obtain the Poincaré-covarinat wave functions within a functional approach to QCD, solving first the quark gap equation within a chiral-symmetry preserving truncation scheme and then the Bethe-Salpeter equation of the mesons. With the LFWF in...
