We use results of fits to the OPAL spectral data, obtained from non-strange hadronic \tau decays, to evaluate the difference between the vector and axial current correlators, \Pi_{V-A}(Q^2). The behavior of \Pi_{V-A}(Q^2) near euclidean…
We propose a model-independent parametrization for the one-pion-to-vacuum matrix elements of the vector and axial vector hadronic currents in the presence of an external uniform magnetic field. It is shown that, in general, these hadronic…

The hadronic vacuum polarization can be determined from the vector correlator in a mixed time-momentum representation. We explicitly calculate the disconnected contribution to the vector correlator, both in the $N_f = 2$ theory and with an…
At zero-density, meson-nucleon vertex corrections to vacuum polarization are studied in the $\sigma-\omega$ model with the cutoff. It is shown that the properties of the vertex corrections to vacuum polarization are somewhat different from…
An approach is discussed on the determination of the leading order hadronic contribution to the muon anomaly, $a_\mu^{HAD}$, based entirely on theory. This method makes no use of $e^+ e^-$ annihilation data, a likely source of the current…
We analyze the lowest spectral moments of the left-right two-point correlation function, using all known short-distance constraints and the recently updated ALEPH V-A spectral function from tau decays. This information is used to determine…
We present our study of the hadronization structure of both vector and axial-vector currents leading to decays of the tau into two kaons and a pion. The cornerstones of our framework are the large-N_C limit of QCD, the chiral structure…

We compute the effects of anomalous gauge-boson couplings at high-energy hadron colliders using next-to-leading order $SU(2) \times SU(2)$ chiral perturbation theory. By comparing the yields from the universal $p^2$ terms with those arising…

Using quenched and unquenched chiral perturbation theory we compute vector and axial current two-point functions at finite volume and fixed gauge field topology, in the so-called \epsilon-regime of QCD. A comparison of these results with…
We discuss noncollinear magnetic phenomena whose local order parameter is characterized by more than one spin vector. By focusing on the simple cases of 2D triangular and 3D pyrochlore lattices, we demonstrate that their low-energy theories…
The large-$N_c$ consistency conditions for axial vector and isovector magnetic couplings of pions to baryons are discussed from the point of view of low-energy current-algebra sum rules (Adler-Weisberger, Cabibbo-Radicati). In particular,…

Relativistic corrections to the strange axial form factor are evaluated within a light-cone formalism, taking into account effects due to the breaking of Lorentz covariance associated with the use of one-body currents. Similar corrections…
