In view of the first measurement of the branching fraction for J/psi --> pi^0 e^+ e^- by the BESIII collaboration, we analyze what can be learnt on the corresponding transition form factor using dispersion theory. We show that light-quark degrees of freedom dominate the spectral function, in particular two-pion intermediate states. Estimating the effects of multi-pion states as well as charmonium, we arrive at a prediction for the complete form factor that should be scrutinized experimentally in the future.

  1. Dispersive analysis of the $J/\psi\to\pi^0 \gamma^\ast$ transition form factor with $\rho$-$\omega$ mixing effects

    Dispersive analysis with ρ-ω mixing produces a two-parameter fit describing BESIII data on the J/ψ→π⁰γ* form factor from 0 to 2.8 GeV and extracts a (62 ± 21)° relative phase between strong and electromagnetic modes.
