Chiral perturbation theory and the 1/N_c-expansion

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2017-08-23 v1

Abstract

We briefly review the effective theory that describes the low energy properties of QCD with three light quarks and a large number of colours, N_c, and then discuss the mechanisms that forbid the Kaplan-Manohar transformation in this framework.
