Electromagnetic transition form factors of mesons

Using a counting scheme which treats pseudoscalar and vector mesons on equal footing, the decays of the narrow light vector mesons ω and ϕ into a dilepton and a pseudoscalar π 0 -meson or η -meson, respectively, are calculated. Thereby, all required parameters could be determined by other reactions so that one has predictive power for the considered decays. The calculated partial decay widths are in very good agreement with the experimental data.
