Tomography of light mesons in light-cone quark model

Understand

We investigate the tomographical structure of pion and kaon in light cone quark model (LCQM).

• In particular, we study the parton distribution amplitude (PDA) of pion and kaon.
• We obtain the parton distribution function (PDF) and the generalized parton distributions (GPDs) of the pion and kaon.
• The valence quark PDA and PDF of pion, after QCD evolution, are found to be consistent with the data from the E791 and the E615 experiments at Fermilab, respectively.
