Description

Two-photon processes can be studied at e+e- colliders via the reaction e+ e- -> e+ e- gamma gamma(*) -> e+ e- X, providing a suitable environment for hadron spectroscopy and tests of QCD predictions. We report recent measurements of the gamma gamma* -> P transition form factors at large values of momentum transfer -- where P is a pseudoscalar meson: pi0, eta, eta', and eta_c -- performed in analyses of high luminosity data collected at the PEP-II collider with the BABAR detector.
