We report the first complete leading-twist next-to-leading-order perturbative QCD predictions for the two-photon exclusive channels gamma gamma -> M+ M- (M=pi,K) at large momentum transfer. The asymptotic distribution amplitude is utilized as a candidate form for the nonperturbative dynamical input. Comparison of the obtained results with the existing experimental data does not provide sufficiently clear evidence to support the applicability of the hard-scattering approach at currently accessible energies.

  1. Exclusive photoproduction of a di-meson pair with large invariant mass

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Calculations of di-meson photoproduction amplitudes at leading order show cross sections up to 100 times larger than single-meson cases, enabling better GPD extraction.

  2. Exclusive photoproduction of a di-meson pair with large invariant mass

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Computes LO amplitudes for di-meson photoproduction channels sensitive to quark GPDs and reports high cross sections suitable for GPD studies at JLab energies.

  3. Twist-3 contributions to $\gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\pi^0,\,K_S^0K_S^0$ in $k_T$ factorization

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Twist-3 LCDA contributions in k_T factorization dominate twist-2 for neutral channels, bringing predictions closer to data while neutral-to-charged ratios remain flat unlike observations.
