Abstract

It is shown that light-cone dominance ideas apply to exclusive processes as well. These processes must include a photon of large virtual mass, as for example deep pion electroproduction. The method provides for a new general parametrization for amplitudes in the Bjorken limit. If correct, it will lend strong support to the ideas of light-cone expansions of operator products and provide a way to study the structure, at short distances, of the commutators of electromagnetic currents and strong sources.
