Radiative $\pi \rho$ and $\pi \omega$ transition form factors in a light-front constituent quark model

The form factors of the $\pi \rho$ and $\pi \omega$ radiative transitions are evaluated within a light-front constituent quark model, using for the first time the eigenfunctions of a light-front mass operator reproducing the meson mass spectrum and including phenomenological Dirac and Pauli quark form factors in the one-body electromagnetic current operator. The sensitivity of the transition form factors both to the meson wave functions and to the constituent quark form factors is illustrated. It is shown that the measurement of the $\pi \rho$ and $\pi \omega$ radiative transitions could help in discriminating among various models of the meson structure.
