Description
The current-component independent extraction of the pion electromagnetic form factor has been analyzed in the light-front quark model. From this light-front covariant analysis of the pion form factor, we compute the unpolarized transverse momentum dependent (TMD) distributions of the pion beyond the leading twist. We also discuss the parton distribution functions (PDFs) obtained from the leading and higher twist TMDs and their NNLO DGLAP evolutions.
