Elastic and Transition Form Factors in DSEs
A symmetry preserving framework for the study of continuum Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is obtained from a truncated solution of the QCD equations of motion or QCD's Dyson-Schwinger equations (DSEs). A nonperturbative solution of the DSEs enables the study of, e.g., hadrons as composites of dressed-quarks and dressed-gluons, the phenomena of confinement and dynamical chiral symmetry breaking (DCSB), and therefrom an articulation of any connection between them. It is within this context that we present a unified study of Nucleon, Delta and Roper elastic and transition form factors, and compare predictions made using a framework built upon a Faddeev equation kernel and interaction vertices that possess QCD-like momentum dependence with results obtained using a symmetry-preserving treatment of a vectorvector contact-interaction.
