Soft Contribution to Form Factors of Gamma* p -> Delta+ Transition

Journal Article · · Physical Review D
OSTI ID:954415
The purely nonperturbative soft contribution to the gamma* p -> delta+ transition form factors is estimated using the local quark-hadron duality approach. Our results show that the soft contribution is dominated by the magnetic transition: the ratio G* E Q2/ G*M Q2 is small for all accessible Q2, in contrast to pQCD expectations that G*E (Q2) -> -G*M (Q2). We also found that the soft contribution to the magnetic form factor is large enough to explain the magnitude of existing experimental data.
