Abstract

The charge form factor of \ensuremathπ and K mesons is evaluated adopting a relativistic constituent quark model based on the light-front formalism. The relevance of the high-momentum components of the meson wave function, for values of the momentum transfer accessible to CEBAF energies, is illustrated. The predictions for the elastic form factor of \ensuremathπ and K mesons are compared with the results of different relativistic approaches, showing that the measurements of the pion and kaon form factors planned at CEBAF could provide information for discriminating among various model of the meson structure.
