Abstract

We mvestigate in a fully covariant manner the electromagnetic (EM) and axial form factors (FFs) of the nucleon and EMFF of the pion, assuming that the current interaction with the hadron is mediated through a point-like coupling with (anti-)quarks which consti­ tute the hadron. First we express FFs in terms of invariant amplitudes which describe the scattering of a hadron and an off-shell quark Next we relate the asymptotic behaviour of FFs to the behaviour of the above-mentioned amplitudes in the Regge limit, using the fundamental assumptiOn of parton models. On the basis of the relations obtained, we dis­ cuss the Regge trajectory functions, especially, their zero intercepts. Furthermore we make speculations on, for example, possible relations between FFs and their dependence on Q'.
