I review some basic facts about the chiral limit of QCD. This allows to formulate an effective field theory below the chiral symmetry breaking scale, chiral perturbation theory (CHPT). I show that for threshold reactions, the spectrum of…

Using chiral perturbation theory and the large-$N_c$ expansion, we obtain expressions for the $\eta'$ mass and $\eta - \eta'$ mixing in terms of low-energy chiral Lagrangian parameters. This is accomplished through an intermediate step of…
The energy dependence of the local ${\cal P}$ and ${\cal CP}$ violation in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions in a large energy range is estimated within a simple phenomenological model. It is expected that at LHC the chiral magnetic effect will be…
We study the effect of topology for a random matrix model of QCD at nonzero imaginary chemical potential or nonzero temperature. Non-universal fluctuations of Dirac eigenvalues lead to normalization factors that contribute to the…
