$g_{K N \Lambda}$ and $g_{K N \Sigma}$ are calculated using a QCD sum rule motivated method used by Reinders, Rubinstein and Yazaki to extract Hadron couplings to goldstone bosons. The SU(3) symmetry breaking effects are taken into account…
We present a QCD sum-rule determination of the heavy-quark kinetic energy inside a heavy meson, $-\lambda_1/2 m_Q$, which is consistent with the field-theory analog of the virial theorem. We obtain $-\lambda_1\approx (0.10\pm…
Using the expansion of the baryon wave function in a series of products of single quark bispinors (Dirac orbitals), the nonsinglet axial and tensor charge of the nucleon are calculated. The leading term yields ${G_A}/{G_V} = 1.27$ and in…
Two new QCD sum rules for nucleons in nuclear matter are obtained from a mixed correlator of spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 interpolating fields. These new sum rules, which are insensitive to the poorly known four-quark condensates, provide…
In-medium sum rules following from the chiral charge algebra of QCD are reviewed, and new sum rules are derived. The new sum rules relate the I^G(J^{PC})=1^-(0^{++}) excitations (quantum numbers of a_0(980)) to the scalar and isovector…
The matrix element of the isoscalar axial vector current, $\bar{u}\gamma_\mu\gamma_5u + \bar{d}\gamma_\mu\gamma_5d $, between nucleon states is computed using the external field QCD sum rule method. The external field induced correlator,…
The recent suggestion of a vanishing flavor-singlet axial charge of nucleon due to a nontrivial vacuum structure is further amplified. A perturbative QCD discussion, applicable for the heavy quark contributions, relates it to the physics of…
The existence of topological solutions and axial anomaly open a possibility of P and CP violation in QCD. For a reason that has not yet been established conclusively, this possibility is not realized in strong interactions - the…
