【 摘 要 】

We propose to describe the process p → π+π-in a perturbative, QCD motivated framework in which a hard ud → d annihilation factorizes from soft transition distribution amplitudes. We advocate that the scale allowing for this factorization is the large transverse momentum transfer. In our simplified model, in which the proton is considered as a (scalar)diqark-quark system, a transition distribution amplitude describes the non-perturbative transition of the proton to the meson by emission of a scalar, isoscalar ud-diquark and absorption of an antiquark (analogously for → π-). We model the transition distribution amplitudes as an overlap of light-cone wave functions and present first results for the differential cross section. This process will be measured by the experiment at GSI-FAIR.
