Dirac's inspired point form and hadron form factors

Abstract

Noticing that the point-form approach referred to in many recent works implies physics described on hyperplanes, an approach inspired from Dirac's one, which involves a hyperboloid surface, is presented. A few features pertinent to this new approach are emphasized. Consequences as for the calculation of form factors are discussed.
