Dependence of Electromagnetic Form Factors of Hadrons on Light Cone Frames

Abstract

A constituent quark model is developed for an arbitrary light- cone direction ω. Form factors are obtained from free one-body electromagnetic current matrix elements. They are found to be ω- independent for spin-0 mesons, the nucleon and Λhyperon, while there is ω-dependence for spin-1 systems like the deuteron.
