The lightest meson, the pion, features two faces -- one is the elementary Goldstone boson of QCD and the other is the structured bound state of quarks and gluons. To accommodate both in a single light-front wave function in the valence space, we obtain a sum rule by analyzing the conserved axial-vector current and the general structures of the wave functions. Using an analytic model motivated by holography, we show this sum rule is consistent with requirements of chiral symmetry breaking in AdS/QCD. Within this model, we find a remarkable feature of the pion, namely that the density is mostly uniform inside its radius; furthermore, we obtain good agreement with the experimental pion form factor at spacelike momenta.

  1. Baryon Bethe-Salpeter Equation in Minkowski-Space QCD$_2$

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    In 1+1D QCD the baryon Bethe-Salpeter equation reduces to the Bars-Durgut equation under valence truncation and is solved numerically for the spectrum and parton distributions.
