Mesonic Tensor Form Factors with Light Front Quark Model

Abstract

We study the tensor form factors for $P\to P$ and $P\to V$ transitions in the light-front quark model with $P$ and $V$ being pseudoscalar and vector mesons, respectively. We explore the behaviors of these form factors in the entire physical range of $0\le p^2\le (M_i-M_f{)}^2$. At the maximum recoil of $p^2=0$, we compare our results of the form factors in $B\to \pi ,K,\rho ,K^{\ast }$ with various other calculations in the literature.
