Experimental Tests of Non-Perturbative Pion Wave Functions

preprint2003arXivOpen access

Abstract

We use the transverse-momentum dependence of the cross section for diffractive dissociation of high energy pions to two jets to study some non-perturbative Light-Cone wave functions of the pion. We compare the predictions for this distribution by Gaussian and Coulomb wave functions as well as the wave function derived from solution of the Light-Cone Hamiltonian in the Singlet Model. We conclude that this experimentally measured information provides a powerful tool for these studies.
