The analytical properties of the pion form factor in the complex plane of momentum transfers are discussed in the Poincaré-invariant quark model. It is shown, that these analytical properties are similar to ones following from basic principles of quantum field theory. The strong dependence of pion form factor on the type of the pion wave functions is obtained in the time-like momentum transfers region. The conditions of resonance behavior of the form factor in this region are formulated in our model. The simple examples of wave functions giving the resonance behavior of the form factor are constructed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
