Resonant amplitude from Quantum Chromodynamics
Abstract
We present the first ab initio calculation of a radiative transition of a hadronic resonance within Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). We compute the amplitude for $$\pi\pi \to \pi\gamma^\star$$, as a function of the energy of the $$\pi\pi$$ pair and the virtuality of the photon, in the kinematic regime where $$\pi\pi$$ couples strongly to the unstable $$\rho$$ resonance. This exploratory calculation is performed using a lattice discretization of QCD with quark masses corresponding to $$m_\pi \approx 400$$ MeV. As a result, we obtain a description of the energy dependence of the transition amplitude, constrained at 48 kinematic points, that we can analytically continue to the $$\rho$$ pole and identify from its residue the $$\rho \to \pi\gamma^\star$$ form-factor.
