Density and thermal corrections to the mass of the pions are studied in the framework of the SU(2) low energy effective chiral lagrangian, in terms of the isospin chemical potential $\mu_\tin{I}$. We concentrate the discussion in the region…
We make a thermal analysis of the light scalar susceptibilities using SU(3)-Chiral Perturbation Theory to one loop taking into account the QCD source of isospin breaking (IB), i.e corrections coming from $m_u\neq m_d$. The value of the…
We have studied lattice QCD with an additional, irrelevant 4-fermion interaction having a U(1)xU(1) chiral symmetry, at finite temperatures. Adding this 4-fermion term allowed us to work at zero quark mass, which would have otherwise been…

We analyse the QCD chiral phase transition in the nonlinear and linear $\sigma$-model. The strategy is the same in both cases. We fix the parameters of the effective meson theory at temperature $T=0$ and extrapolate the models to…
A thermal Finite Energy QCD Sum Rule is used to determine the temperature behaviour of the $\omega \rho \pi$ strong coupling. This coupling decreases with increasing $T$ and vanishes at the critical temperature, a likely signal for quark…
In the first order of chiral perturbation theory the corrections to $F_{\pi^0}$ and $M_{\pi^0}$ in a magnetic field at finite temperature have been found. It was shown that they are shifted in such a manner that Gell-Mann - Oakes - Renner…
The temperature evolution of the chiral condensates in a gas made of pions, kaons and etas is studied within the framework of SU(2) and SU(3) Chiral Perturbation Theory. We describe the temperature dependence of the quark condensates by…
We calculate the masses and leptonic decay constants of the heavy vector quarkonia, $J/\psi$ and $\Upsilon$ mesons at finite temperature. In particular, considering the thermal spectral density as well as additional operators coming up at…
Pseudo-Goldstone modes appear in many physical systems and display robust universal features. First, their mass $m$ obeys the so-called Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner (GMOR) relation $f^2\,m^2=H\,\bar{\sigma}$, with $f$ the Goldstone stiffness, $H$…
