It is pointed out that the hadron spectroscopy should be a study of the structure of the QCD vacuum, low-energy elementary excitations on top of which are hadrons. Concentrating on the dynamical breaking of the chiral symmetry in the QCD…
The restoration of chiral symmetry at finite density and/or temperature is investigated in a wide class of one-gluon exchange models in the instantaneous approximation. If the effective quark interaction is less divergent than $1/k^2$ for…
We provide a snapshot of recent progress in hadron physics made using QCD's Dyson-Schwinger equations, reviewing the generation of a quark anomalous chromomagnetic moment, which may explain the longstanding puzzle of the $a_1$-$\rho$ mass…
It is widely believed that chiral symmetry is restored not only at high temperatures, but also at high nuclear densities. The drop of the order parameter of the chiral phase transition, the chiral condensate, with density has indeed been…
The quark-meson model is often used as an effective low-energy model for QCD to study the chiral transition at finite temperature $T$, baryon chemical potential $\mu_B$, and isospin chemical potential $\mu_I$. The parameters of the model…
Chiral thermodynamics of charmed mesons is formulated at finite temperature within a $2+1+1$-flavored effective Lagrangian incorporating heavy quark symmetry. The charmed-meson mean fields act as an extra source which breaks the chiral…
We propose measuring the mass shift and width broadening of the $f_1(1285)$ meson together with those of the $\omega$ from a nuclear target as a means to experimentally probe the partial restoration of chiral symmetry inside the nuclear…
Recent developments for chiral and $U(1)_A$ restorations in excited hadrons are reviewed. We emphasize predictions of the chiral symmetry restoration scenario for axial charges and couplings to Goldstone bosons. Using very general chiral…
Chirality is a pervasive form of symmetry that is intimately connected to the physical properties of solids, as well as the chemical and biological activity of molecular systems. However, its control with light is challenging, because…
A quantitative study of the effects of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking on the mass generation of the low-lying hadrons in a dynamical lattice QCD simulation is presented. The evolution of light hadron masses upon increasing the number of…

We discuss how the possible changes of hadron properties can be tested, associated with the chiral transition in nuclear medium; the hadrons discussed are the vector mesons,the $\sigma$ meson and the chiral partner of the nucleon. We…
After a brief summary of the QCD phase structure with light quarks, we discuss two recent developments on in-medium hadrons. First topic is the sigma-meson which is a fluctuation of the chiral order parameter \bar{q}q. Although sigma is at…
A model of hadron masses based on the quark structure of hadrons combined with effects of chiral dynamics is used to calculate the 2+1 flavour chiral condensate in the hadron resonance gas framework. Results are discussed in the context of…
The implications of chiral symmetry for the quark model are discussed. In particular its connection with the meson-baryon approach is outlined. It is stressed that in the closure approximation, where the intermediate baryon states are used…
We study a two-dimensional chiral active crystal composed of underdamped chiral active particles. These particles, characterized by intrinsic handedness and persistence, interact via linear forces derived from harmonic potentials. Chirality…
Soft-pion theorems are used to show how chiral symmetry constrains the contributions of low-momentum pions to the quark condensate, the pion decay constant and hadron masses, all of which have been proposed as signals of partial restoration…
In terms of an effective chiral theory of mesons it is shown quantitatively that in the limit of $m_{q}=0$, the masses of $\rho$, $\omega$, $K^{*}(892)$, $m_{\phi}$, $a_{1}$, $f_{1}(1286)$, $K_{1}(1400)$, and $f_{1}(1510)$ mesons originate…
We extend our analysis of the leading hadronic contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon using the mixed representation method to study its chiral behavior. We present results derived from local-conserved two-point lattice…
We developed a new and unified scheme for describing both quark spin and orbital angular momenta in symmetry-breaking chiral quark model. The loss of quark spin in the chiral splitting processes is compensated by the gain of the orbital…
