Abstract
The elastic charge form factors of the pion, kaon, D, and B mesons are calculated within a relativistic constituent quark model formulated on the light cone. Our parameter-free predictions agree well with the available data. The results are approximately independent of the assumed form of the light-cone wave function; in particular, they do not depend on the high momentum tail of the wave function for energies accessible to present experiments.Keywords
