Abstract:
The paper presents an algorithm for calculating the meson form factors of the $\gamma\gamma^*\to P(q\overline{q})$ process in a model based
on the composite quark model and the point form of Poincaré-invariant quantum mechanics. It is shown that the use of structure
functions of constituent quarks for the light sector leads to a behavior of the $q^2 F_{p^0}(q^2)$ value of the $\gamma\gamma^*\to\pi^0$, $\gamma\gamma^*\to\eta$ and $\gamma\gamma^*\to\eta'$ processes at large momentum transfers consistent with experimental data. A self-consistent model satisfactorily
describing electroweak decays of pseudoscalar mesons of the light sector is proposed.
