Form factors of $η_c$ in light front quark model

We study the form factors of the $η_c$ meson in the light-front quark model. We explicitly show that the transition form factor of $η_c \to γ^* γ$ as a function of the momentum transfer is consistent with the experimental data by the BaBar collaboration, while the decay constant of $η_c$ is found to be $f_{η_{c}}=230.5^{+52.2}_{-61.0}$ and $303.6^{+115.2}_{-116.4}$ MeV for $η_c\sim c\bar{c}$ by using two $η_c \to γγ$ decay widths of $5.3\pm 0.5$ and $7.2\pm2.1$ keV, given by Particle Data Group and Lattice QCD calculation, respectively.
