Exclusive Processes in Perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics
@article{Lepage1980ExclusivePI, title={Exclusive Processes in Perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics}, author={G. Lepage and S. Brodsky}, journal={Physical Review D}, year={1980}, volume={22}, pages={2157-2198} }
We present a systematic analysis in perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD) of large-momentum-transfer exclusive processes. Predictions are given for the scaling behavior, angular dependence, helicity structure, and normalization of elastic and inelastic form factors and large-angle exclusive scattering amplitudes for hadrons and photons. We prove that these reactions are dominated by quark and gluon subprocesses at short distances, and thus that the dimensional-counting rules for the power… CONTINUE READING
