The behavior of the vector Adler function at spacelike momenta is studied in the framework of a covariant chiral quark model with instanton-like quark-quark interaction. The model reproduces the Adler function and $V-A$ correlator extracted…
Glueballs and hybrids are predicted to exist but searches for them have failed to provide conclusive evidence. One--gluon exchange is not an important part of strong interactions in this energy regime. Instead, quarks seem to interact…
