The H(e,e'pi+)n cross section was measured at four-momentum transfers of Q2=1.60 and 2.45 GeV2 at an invariant mass of the photon nucleon system of W=2.22 GeV. The charged pion form factor (F_pi) was extracted from the data by comparing the separated longitudinal pion electroproduction cross section to a Regge model prediction in which F_pi is a free parameter. The results indicate that the pion form factor deviates from the charge-radius constrained monopole form at these values of Q2 by one sigma, but is still far from its perturbative Quantum Chromo-Dynamics prediction.

Extraction of Pion Unpolarized Quark Generalized Parton Distribution from Charge Form Factors
hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

Pion unpolarized quark GPDs at zero skewness are extracted from a data-driven fit to the electromagnetic form factor and PDFs using a parameterized form factor embedded in a PDF-plus-profile GPD framework.
