Abstract
The TPC/Two-Gamma facility at the SLAC {ital e}{sup +}{ital e}{sup {minus}} storage ring PEP was used to study the reactions {gamma}{gamma}{sup *}{r arrow}{eta} and {gamma}{gamma}{sup *}{r arrow}{eta}{prime}. The {eta}{gamma}{sup *}{gamma} and {eta}{prime}{gamma}{sup *}{gamma} transition form factors were measured as functions of {ital Q}{sup 2}, the negative of the invariant mass squared of the tagged photon, in the range 0.1{lt}{ital Q}{sup 2}{lt}7 GeV{sup 2}. These determinations of the electromagnetic structure of the {eta} and {eta}{prime} mesons are consistent with both vector-meson dominance and QCD. They also provide new measurements of the pseudoscalar mixing angle and decay constants.
