The transverse spin of interacting light quarks is described by two independent non-perturbative inputs, twist-2 transversity and twist-3 quark-gluon correlators, while for free massive quarks they are related by the equations of motion.…
The momentum-transfer dependence of the slopes of the spin-non-flip and spin-flip amplitudes is analysed. It is shown that the long tail of the hadronic potential in impact parameter space leads for hadron-hadron interactions to a larger…
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 describe quenched spectroscopy in SU(2) gauge theory using smoothed gauge field configurations. We investigate the properties of quarks moving in instanton background field configurations, where the sizes and locations of the instantons…
The spinless Salpeter equation supplemented by an instanton induced force is used to describe the spectra of light mesons, including the pseudoscalar ones. The coupling constants of the instanton induced potential, as well as the quark…
We introduce a novel bootstrap method for classical Compton scattering amplitudes involving two massless gluon/graviton particles and two arbitrary-spin infinite-mass particles in a heavy-mass effective field theory context. Using a…
We investigate the spin contribution to light baryon ground states in three inequivalent large-$N$ limits: 't Hooft, QCD antisymmetric and QCD symmetric. Our framework is a constituent quark model with a relativistic Hamiltonian containing…
Instanton effects can give large contribution to strong interacting processes, especially at the energy scale where perturbative QCD is no longer valid. However instanton contribution to the gluon contribution in constituent quark and…
We consider quark-photon correlations that have been proposed as a source for single-spin asymmetries in inclusive deep-inelastic scattering. A new sum rule for these correlators is derived and its phenomenological consequences are…
Non-perturbative effects of instanton-like solutions are studied within the framework of supergravity theories with field-dependent gauge functions. Fermionic zero modes are constructed and some typical correlation functions are evaluated.…
We study the semi-inclusive production of real, high-$p_T$, isolated photons in unpolarized and polarized lepton-proton collisions, $\ell p\to \ell\gamma X$. In particular we analyze the transverse nucleon single-spin asymmetry within the…
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 ${\mathcal Q}^{-1}$…
We consider elastic quark-quark scattering at high energy with fixed momentum transfer $t$ and perform factorization of soft-gluon exchanges into a vacuum expectation value of Wilson lines. Taking into account nonperturbative corrections…
We consider mechanism for one-spin asymmetries observed in inclusive hadron production. The main role belongs to the orbital angular momentum of the quark-antiquark cloud in the internal structure of constituent quarks. We argue that the…
The work concerns the quasielastic charged current neutrino-neutron and antineutrino-proton interactions. Single, double, and triple spin asymmetries are computed and analyzed. The spin asymmetries are sensitive to the axial form factor of…
We are discussing the properties of the QCD vacuum which might be important especially for the understanding of hadrons with small quark core size $\sim0.3\,fm.$ We assume that at these distances the QCD vacuum can be described by the…
The main properties of the leading-twist transverse momentum dependent parton distributions in a light-cone constituent quark model of the nucleon are reviewed, with focus on the role of the spin-spin and spin-orbit correlations of quarks.…
We argue that if the growing part of hadron-hadron cross section (described phenomenologically by the supercritical soft Pomeron) is due to instanton/sphaleron mechanism, one should find certain qualitative features of the produced cluster…
The instanton approach to spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking is reviewed, with emphasis on the connection to chiral random matrix theory. We extend the approach to discuss the finite density, zero-temperature behaviour of quark matter.…
The origin of the fermion generations is discussed. A strong interactions spin $I_{S}$ is introduced which unifies the quarks and leptons as two multiplets of this spin. The electroweak vector bosons and gluons emerge as the fused states of…
