A manifestly covariant formalism is used as a guide to construct a covariant extension of the
light-front quark model. Our analysis demonstrates in detail that covariance necessarily …

Both the mass spectra and the wave functions of the light pseudoscalar (π, K, η, η′) and
vector (ρ, K*, ω, φ) mesons are analyzed within the framework of the light-cone constituent …

In this paper, we study the pion leading-twist distribution amplitude (DA) ϕ 2; π (x, μ) by
improving the traditional light-cone harmonic oscillator model within the reconstruction of the …

In the light-front quark model (LFQM) amenable to the simultaneous study of both the mass
spectroscopy and the wave function related observables, we examine the decay constants …

We present a calculation of the quark distribution amplitudes (DAs), the Gegenbauer
moments, and decay constants for π, ρ, K, and K* mesons using the light-front quark model …

We investigate the elastic form factors of the ρ meson in the light-front quark model (LFQM).
With the phenomenologically accessible meson vertices including the one obtained by the …

We find that the zero mode (q+= 0 mode of a continuum theory) contribution is crucial to
obtaining the correct values of the light-front current J− in the Drell-Yan (q+= 0) frame. In the …

In this paper, we calculate the ratio of Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements,| V
ub|/| V cb|, based on the semileptonic decay B s 0→ K-μ+ ν μ. Its key component, the B s→ K …

A bstract In this paper, we calculate the matrix element and form factors of vector-to-vector
(VI→ V II) transition within the standard light-front (SLF) and covariant light-front (CLF) quark …

We review the interface between the current theoretical framework based on generalized
parton distributions (GPDs) and experimental measurements of deeply virtual Compton …
