Abstract
© (2026), (Web Portal American Physical Society). All Rights Reserved.The electromagnetic structure of axial-vector mesons is investigated via elastic and two-photon transition form factors (TFFs). To this end, we employ a framework based on the Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter equations within a contact interaction (CI) model. This largely algebraic approach exposes the role of symmetries and their breaking in a transparent manner, and has proven successful in describing anomalysensitive processes, including pseudoscalar to two-photon TFFs, ? ? 3?, and vector-to-pseudoscalar radiative decays. Restricting our analysis to the lowest-lying axial-vector meson multiplet, A = {a1,f1,f'1}, we also explore the corresponding light-by-light contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. This contribution is underestimated in the CI model mainly due to the normalization of the TFFs. After applying a phenomenologically motivated rescaling to the TFFs, a process required given the limitations of the CI model, we obtain (aA? = 8.16+1.22-1.02x10-11), consistent with contemporary assessments.
