f_K/f_pi ratio from QCD sum rules

Nuclear Theory 2008-11-26 v3 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

Using the correlation function of the axial vector mesons, we present a QCD sum rule calculation for the decay constants f_pi and f_K. Our calculations are only weakly dependent on the SU(3) breaking-parameter for the QCD vacuum and give the ratio f_K/f_pi = 1.11 ±\pm 0.02.
