摘要
We investigate the possibility to constrain the pion distribution amplitude from the gamma*gamma* --> pi transition. For a surprisingly large range in the two photon virtualities we find that the transition form factor is essentially independent of the distribution amplitude. This in turn entails a parameter-free prediction of QCD. The gamma*gamma* --> eta,eta' form factors are also briefly discussed. We estimate that experimental studies might be feasible at the existing e(+)e(-) experiments BaBar, Belle, and CLEO.
