It is demonstrated that any attempt to calculate the perturbative QCD contribution to the pion form factor requires the inclusion of intrinsic transverse momentum besides Sudakov form factors. For momentum transfers of the order of a few GeV the intrinsic transverse momentum leads to a substantial suppression of the perturbative QCD contribution.

  1. The Gravitational Form Factor of the Pion in Perturbative QCD with a Dilaton Interaction

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Anomaly-induced dilaton-like corrections in the hard kernel significantly modify pion GFFs at large Q^{2} within a factorization approach using Sudakov resummation and a Gaussian TMD wave function.

  2. 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.
