The gamma -> 3 pi form factor as a constraint on Schwinger-Dyson modeling of light quarks
Abstract
The form factor for gamma pi+ -> pi+ pi0 was calculated in a simple-minded constituent model with a constant quark mass parameter, as well as in the Schwinger-Dyson approach. The comparative discussion of these and various other theoretical results on this anomalous process, as well as the scarce already available data (hopefully to be supplemented by more accurate CEBAF data soon), seem to favor Schwinger-Dyson modeling which would yield relatively small low-momentum values of the constituent (dynamically dressed) quark mass function.
