abstract

Among countless channels of hard exclusive reactions, the kaon electromagnetic form factors (EMFFs) are of special interest, which have been measured up to $Q^2 \sim 50\;{\rm GeV}^2$ in the timelike domain. The kaon EMFFs thereby serve an ideal platform to critically examine the validity and effectiveness of perturbative QCD (pQCD) in accounting for hard exclusive processes. In this work we confront the pQCD predictions that incorporate the next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) perturbative corrections, with the available kaon EMFFs data set from experimental measurements and from lattice predictions. The inclusion of the NNLO corrections turns out to have a substantial and positive impact. If the profiles of the kaon light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) are taken from the recent lattice QCD prediction by {\tt LPC} Collaboration, the satisfactory agreement between theory and data can be reached for both charged and neutral kaons, in both spacelike and timelike large-$Q^2$ domains.

  1. Form factors of light pseudoscalar mesons from the perturbative QCD approach

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Adding intrinsic transverse momentum distributions to perturbative QCD improves form-factor predictions at low momentum transfer and gives beta_pi^2 = 0.51, beta_K^2 = 0.30 GeV^-2, m_0^pi = 1.84 GeV.

  2. Shedding light on the intrinsic transversal momentum distributions of pion and kaon

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Adding a Gaussian intrinsic transverse momentum distribution to pQCD form factor calculations lets pion and kaon electromagnetic form factors match data at a few GeV squared and gives m0_pi = 1.84 GeV.

  3. Spin-orbit correlation and spatial distributions for spin-0 hadrons

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    For spin-0 hadrons, the kinetic quark spin-orbit correlation reduces to minus half the valence quark number when quark masses are neglected, and its spatial chiral-stress distributions can be obtained from the electro...
