QCD sum rules are based on the Operator Product Expansion of current correlators, and on QCD-hadron duality. An extension of this program to finite temperature is discussed. This allows for a study of deconfinement and chiral-symmetry…
The composite operator formalism is applied to QCD at finite temperature to calculate the masses of scalar and pseudoscalar mesons. In particular the ratio of the sigma mass to the pion mass is an interesting measure of the degree of chiral…
Like the even chirality correlation functions of, say, the two vector currents, one can also consider odd chirality correlation functions to write thermal QCD sum rules. They contain fewer non-perturbative corrections, at least to the…
In this article, we calculate the scalar form-factors $f_{\pi\pi}(Q^2)$ and $f_{KK}(Q^2)$ in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach. The numerical value of the $f_{\pi\pi}(Q^2)$ changes quickly with variation of $Q^2$ near…
