Abstract

QCD-based scaling arguments predict the predominance of longitudinal over transverse electroproduction of pions by terms ∝ Q2. However, data from JLAB, Cornell and DESY, covering a wide kinematical range 1 < Q2 < 11GeV2 and 2GeV < W < 4GeV, do not show this expected behavior. At the same time standard descriptions of pion-electroproduction on nucleons have given a very good description of the longitudinal components of the cross sections. However, these very same models have failed grossly in describing the transverse component. We discuss here a common solution to these two problems by considering the contributions of high-lying (W > 2 GeV) nucleon resonances to pion production. The coupling strengths and form factors are obtained through hadron-parton duality. We show that an excellent description of data in a wide range of electron energies and four-momentum transfers can be obtained in such a model.
