Description

We present an investigation of pion structure based on ETMC $N_f=2$ and $N_f=2+1+1$ twisted mass configurations at maximal twist. We compute the first two moments of the quark momentum fraction of the pion and the electromagnetic form factor. For the latter, momentum is injected using twisted boundary conditions and $F_\pi(Q^2)$ is calculated at the physical pion mass. We find that our data is consistent with vector meson dominance and experimental data in the region of momentum transfer $Q^2 > 0.01$ $\,\mathrm{GeV}^2$.
