We study the Effective Field Theory of three QCD-like theories, which can be classified by having quarks in a complex, real or pseudo-real representations of the gauge group. The Lagrangians are written in a very similar way so that the…
We parametrize in a model-independent way possible departures from the minimal Standard Model predictions in the matter sector. We only assume the symmetry breaking pattern of the Standard Model and that new particles are sufficiently heavy…

We construct a low energy effective Lagrangian for the two-color QCD including the "vector" bosons (mesons with J^P=1^- and diquark baryons with J^P=1^+) in addition to the pseudo Nambu-Goldstone bosons with a degenerate mass M_\pi (mesons…
In this work, we construct the chiral Lagrangian for a light spin-1 boson $X$ possessing both vectorial and axial couplings to the light Standard Model quarks $u, d, s$. We then use it in order to describe the tree-level, model-independent…
We present an update on the meson mass spectra calculation with the light-front quark model constrained by the variational principle for the QCD-motivated effective Hamiltonian. By smearing out the Dirac delta function in the hyperfine…
A quark model approach to the photoproduction of vector mesons off nucleons is proposed. Its starting point is an effective Lagrangian of the interaction between the vector meson and the quarks inside the baryon. This paper develops the…
Two body nonleptonic weak decays of bottom mesons to a pseudoscalar meson and an axial-vector meson involving charmed states are studied using the non-relativistic quark model. We calculate the branching ratios of these decays by employing…

The results of a high-statistics study of scalar and pseudoscalar meson propagators in quenched lattice QCD are presented. For two values of lattice spacing, $\beta=5.7$ ($a \approx .18$ fm) and 5.9 ($a \approx .12$ fm), we probe the light…
The masses and decays of the scalar D_{s0}^*(2317) and axial-vector D_{s1}^*(2460) charmed strange mesons are calculated consistently in the hadrogenesis conjecture. These mesons decay either strongly into the isospin-violating pi^0 D_s and…
We perform an analysis of Lattice QCD data on baryon octet and decuplet masses based on the chiral SU(3) Lagrangian. Low-energy constants (LEC) are adjusted to describe baryon masses from a large set of CLS ensembles, where finite-box and…
In this work, we make a study of the $\tau^- \to \omega\pi^-\nu_\tau$ decay in the framework of low-energy effective field theory. The $J^{\mathcal{P}G}$ decompositions of the quark currents and the $\omega\pi$ final state show that,…

We investigate the isospin symmetry breaking effects within a recently derived Nambu-Jona-Lasinio related model by fitting the measured pseudoscalar meson masses and weak decay couplings $f_\pi$, $f_K$. Our model contains the next to…
We consider the effective interaction of quarks with a new GeV-scale vector particle that couples to electroweak gauge bosons by the so-called effective Chern-Simons interaction. We call this particle the Chern-Simons (CS) boson. We…
We reconsider the Constituent Chiral Quark Model of Manohar and Georgi in the presence of $SU(3)_{L}\times SU(3)_{R}$ external sources. As recently emphasized by Weinberg, the corresponding effective Lagrangian is renormalizable in the…
I discuss the recent attempts to build an effective chiral Lagrangian incorporating massive resonance states. A useful approximation scheme to organize the resonance Lagrangian is provided by the large-Nc limit of QCD. Integrating out the…
After giving a short introduction to the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with an anomaly term, we show the importance of the scalar-scalar correlation in the low-energy hadron dynamics, which correlation may be summarized by a scalar-isoscalar…
Using quenched chiral perturbation theory, we compute the long-distance behaviour of two-point functions of flavour non-singlet axial and vector currents in a finite volume, for small quark masses, and at a fixed gauge-field topology. We…
