Pion Form Factor in the Light‐Front

The pion electromagnetic form factor is calculated with a light‐front quark model. The “plus” and “minus” components of the electromagnetic current are used to calculate the electromagnetic form factor in the the Breit frame with two models for the qq vertex. The light‐front constituent quark model describes very well the hadronic wave functions for pseudo‐scalar and vector particles. Symmetry problems arising in the light‐front approcah are solved by the pole dislocation method. The results are compared with new experimental data and with other quark models.
