We study the mixing of the QCD/QCD-like axion and light-flavor mesons $\pi^0, \eta, \eta'$ within the framework of $U(3)$ chiral perturbation theory up to next-to-leading order in this work. The axion-meson mixing formulas are calculated…
Meson loop corrections to baryon axial currents are computed in the 1/N expansion. It is already known that the one-loop corrections are suppressed by a factor 1/N; here it is shown that the two-loop corrections are suppressed by (1/N)^2.…

We evaluate the pseudoscalar-meson octet-baryon coupling constants and the corresponding axial charges in eight channels ($\pi N\N$, $\pi\Sigma\Sigma$, $\pi\Lambda\Sigma$, $K\Lambda N$, $K \Sigma N $, $\pi\Xi\Xi$, $K\Lambda\Xi$ and…
It is argued that the precise three flavor symmetry of hadrons is not SU(3)_F but rather U(4)_F restricted to SU(2)_{ud}*SU(2)_{cs}*U(1) and considered in the limit of frozen charm degree of freedom. Within this scheme the only hypercharge…
We present a quenched lattice calculation of all six form factors: vector [f_1(q^2)], weak magnetism [f_2(q^2)], induced scalar [f_3(q^2)], axial-vector [g_1(q^2)], weak electricity [g_2(q^2)] and induce pseudoscalar [g_3(q^2)] form factors…
We show that in the presence of massive particles such as nucleons, the standard low energy expansion in powers of meson momenta and light quark masses in general only converges in part of the low energy region. The expansion of the scalar…
The combined use of chiral $SU(3)$ and heavy quark symmetries allows one to relate the hadronic form factors for the decay $\bar B\to \bar K\e^+\e^-$ to those for $\bar B\to\pi\e^-\bar\nu$. We investigate departures from the symmetry limit…
