Light-front quark model predictions of meson elastic and transition form factors

Abstract

We investigate the electroweak form factors and semileptonic decay rates of mesons using the constituent quark model based on the light-front degrees of freedom. Our results demonstrate the broader applicability of light-front approach including the timelike region of exclusive processes.
