The quark anomalous magnetic moment (AMM) is dynamically generated through the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking. It has been revealed that even though its exact form is still unknown, the quark AMM is essential to explore quark matter…
Using the resolution of the gauge hierarchy problem recently proposed by Randall and Sundrum, we find a natural explanation for the observed fermion masses and mixings of the three Standard Model (SM) generations. Localizing massless SM…

The strange quark mass is calculated from QCD sum rules for the divergence of the vector as well as axial-vector current in the next-next-to-leading logarithmic approximation. The determination for the divergence of the axial-vector current…
We propose a novel mechanism to reproduce the observed mass hierarchy for the scalar mesons lighter than 1 GeV (called the inverse hierarchy) regarding them as mesons made of a quark and an anti-quark ($q\bar{q}$ mesons). The source is…

One of the most challenging issues in QCD is the investigation of spontaneous chiral-symmetry breaking, which is characterized by the non-vanishing chiral condensate when the bare fermion mass is zero. In standard methods, one has to…
Chiral anomaly is a very fundamental aspect of quantum theories with chiral fermion, from the Standard Model to supersymmetric field theories or even string theories. How such microscopic anomaly manifests itself in a macroscopic many-body…
