I propose a resolution of the strong CP problem of quarks based on vacuum alignment in theories of dynamically broken electroweak and flavor symmetries. Mixing in the neutral B and K--meson systems is used to restrict the form of quark mass…
We investigate dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and the emergence of mesonic bound states from the infrared dynamics of four-quark scatterings. Both phenomena originate from the resonant scalar-pseudoscalar channel of the four-quark…
