We study the asymmetry between the vector current and axial-vector current correlators in the colour-flavour locking (CFL) phase of QCD at finite density. Using Weinberg's sum rules, we compute the decay constant $f_\pi$ of the Goldstone…
We discuss the meson-meson scattering and finite energy sum rule(FESR), based on the one-loop calculation within U(3) chiral perturbation theory. First we obtain the pertinent resonance spectroscopy from the unitarized partial wave…
We show how such important features of QCD as chiral symmetry breaking or the formation of a mass-gap can be directly traced from QCD sum rules for two point functions assuming, in the large number of colors limit, exact duality between the…
The baryon masses on CLS ensembles are used to determine the LEC that characterize QCD in the flavor-SU(3) limit with vanishing up, down, and strange quark masses. Here we reevaluate some of the baryon masses on flavor-symmetric ensembles…
QCD sum rules on the light-cone are derived for the sum $f^+ + f^-$ of the $B\to \pi$ and $D\to \pi$ form factors taking into account contributions up to twist four. Combining the results with the corresponding $f^+$ form factors calculated…
The Adler-Weisberger sum rule for the nucleon axial-vector charge, $g_A$, offers a unique signature of chiral symmetry and its breaking in QCD. Its derivation relies on both algebraic aspects of chiral symmetry, which guarantee the…
We consider sum rules of the Weinberg type at zero and nonzero temperatures. On the basis of the operator product expansion at zero temperature we obtain a new sum rule which involves the average of a four-quark operator on one side and…
A sum rule for determining |V_us| from a combination of hadronic tau decay and electroproduction data is discussed. Indications of problems with analogous, purely tau-decay-based analyses, most likely associated with slow convergence of the…
Pseudo-scalar and scalar $D$ mesons are considered within the QCD sum rule approach. We present an analysis of the mass splitting of the pseudo-scalar D - D-bar mesons and the relation to QCD condensates. Weinberg type sum rules are derived…
A novel procedure for extracting hadron characteristics from QCD sum rules, based on effective continuum thresholds (necessary for the implementation of quark-hadron duality) which may depend on the involved momenta and on the Borel…
A classic sum rule by Das et al. is extended to seven of the low-energy constants $K_i$, introduced by Urech, which parameterize electromagnetic corrections at chiral order $O(e^2p^2)$. Using the spurion formalism, a simple convolution…
The chiral expansion of the low energy processes $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$ and $\eta\to\gamma\gamma$ is reconsidered with particular emphasis on the question of the evaluation of the two low-energy parameters from ${\cal L}^{WZ}_{(6)}$ which…
Tau decays into hadrons foresee the study of the hadronization of vector and axial-vector QCD currents, yielding relevant information on the dynamics of the resonances entering into the processes. We analyse tau -> (3 pion) nu_tau decays…
The compatibility of the QCD sum rules and effective hadronic models predictions are examined. For this purpose we have considered the results for the nucleon self-energy in a dense hadronic environment provided by two independent QCD…
The structure function of a heavy quark in a heavy hadron in electroproduction is calculated from QCD. Its deviation from the parton model prediction (a delta function) is shown to be governed by a shape function, similar to the one…
Sum rules for the variation of finite-density spectral density of vector channel with baryon density are derived based on dispersion relations and the operator product expansion. These sum rules may serve as constraints on the…
