It is shown that the quark-gluon interaction induced by instantons leads to the quark anomalous chromomagnetic moment. In the instanton-liquid model for the QCD vacuum, the chromomagnetic moment is $\mu_a=-\frac{\pi f}{2\alpha_s}$, where f…

We performed the measurement of the inclusive electron scattering off the proton in the resonance region (W<2.5 GeV) at momentum transfer Q2 below 4.5 (GeV/c)^2 with the CLAS detector. The large acceptance of CLAS provided an access to a…
New Results on the measurement of the proton structure function F_2(x,Q^2) are reported for momentum transfers squared Q^2 >= 1.5 GeV^2 and Bjorken x >= 3.5 10^{-5} using data collected by the HERA experiments H1 and ZEUS in 1994. F_2…
An enhancement for the $\eta$ production in proton-neutron collisions as compared with that in proton-proton scattering has been recently observed. We present a calculation for the production cross section, in proton-neutron collisions near…
It is shown, that the hard component of quarks distribution functions induced by instantons gives the essential contribution to hard diffractive processes. We predict large polarization effects in these processes.
A simple model for the instanton ensemble at finite temperature T is proposed, including ``random" and strongly correlated ``molecular" component. T-dependence of fermionic zero modes naturally leads to chiral symmetry restoration, without…
This work is devoted to the study of the non-perturbative contributions in non-leptonic hyperon decays. We show that the instanton-induced 't Hooft interaction can naturally explain the Delta I=1/2 rule, by generating quark-diquark…
New results from the H1 and ZEUS collaborations on the measurement of cross-sections at very high Q^2 (up to 25000 GeV^2) and on the proton structure function F_2(x,Q^2) for momentum transfers squared Q^2 >= 1.5 GeV^2 and Bjorken x >= 3.5…
Phenomenological aspects of chirality violating processes induced by QCD instantons in deep inelastic scattering are discussed. First instanton searches and the prospects for their experimental discovery at HERA are presented.
The instanton induced interaction leads to a significant enhancement of the $A_0$ weak amplitude determining the $\Delta I=1/2$ rule, through the contribution of operators with dimension d=9, as we show in the weak $K\to \pi\pi$ decay.
We study the effects of instantons on the charged pion electro-magnetic formfactor at intermediate momenta. In the Single Instanton Approximation (SIA), we predict the pion formfactor in the kinematic region Q^2=2-15 GeV^2. By developing…
Instanton calculations in QCD are generically plagued by infrared divergencies associated with the integration over the instanton size $\rho$. Here, we demonstrate explicitly that the typical inverse hard momentum scale ${\mathcal Q}^{-1}$…
