The effective chiral theory of the in-medium NN interactions is considered. The shallow bound states, which complicate the effective field theory analysis in vacuum do not exist in matter. We show that the next-to-leading order terms in the…
We present recent results of hadron spectroscopy and hadron-hadron interaction from the perspective of constituent quark models. We pay special attention to the role played by higher order Fock space components in the hadron spectra and the…
Explicit chiral symmetry breaking is a natural feature of many QCD inspired models with multi-quark interactions. To carry out the 1/N expansion of these theories, one integrates over the quark fields. In the process of calculating the…
We use an effective quark model to describe both hadronic matter and deconfined quark matter. By calculating the equations of state and the corresponding neutron star properties, we show that the internal properties of the nucleon have…
In recent years a tentative description of the short-range part of hadron interactions with constituent quark interchange has been developed providing an alternative approach to meson physics. Quark interchange plays a role, for example, in…
This presentation starts with a brief review of our current picture of QCD phases, derived from lattice QCD thermodynamics and from models based on the symmetries and symmetry breaking patterns of QCD. Typical approaches widely used in this…
The problem of the structure of nucleons and their interaction in the concept of nonperturbative QCD is discussed as an approach to studying the transformation of current quarks into constituent ones and the search for the mechanism of such…
The nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) potential is the residual interaction of the strong interaction in the low-energy region and is also the fundamental input to the study of atomic nuclei. Based on the non-perturbative properties of the quantum…
In the first part we summarize the status of the nucleon-nucleon (NN) problem in the context of Hamiltonian based constituent quark models and present results for the l=0 phase shifts obtained from the Goldstone-boson exchange model by…
The $q\bar q$ spectrum is studied in a generalized constituent quark model constrained in the study of the $NN$ phenomenology and the baryon spectrum. An overall good fit to the available experimental data is obtained. A detailed analysis…
We discuss the properties of the nucleon (N) and its excited state with odd parity (N*) under the aspect of chiral symmetry, identifying them with suitable representations of the chiral group. It is shown that there are two distinctive…
The chiral quark model suggests that the baryon quark-sea is negatively polarized. This modifies the spin structure as given by the naive quark model and agrees with experimental data. However, for the magnetic moments, there is significant…
Twist-2 components of the real and virtual photon distribution amplitudes are evaluated in several chiral quark models. The results, obtained at the quark model scale, are then evolved to higher scales, probed in experiments or in lattice…
We present a new chiral power expansion scheme for the nuclear equation of state. The scheme is effective in the sense that it is constructed to work around nuclear saturation density. The leading and subleading terms are evaluated and are…
This is a brief summary of topics that were presented as lectures within the programme "New Frontiers in QCD 2010" at the Yukawa Institute of Theoretical Physics in Kyoto. The basic subject is phases and symmetry breaking patterns as they…
We present a microscopic description of the strong $\pi NN$, $\pi N\Delta$ and $\pi\Delta\Delta$ vertices. Our starting point is a constituent-quark model supplemented by an additional $3q\pi$ non-valence component. In the spirit of chiral…
The Interacting Instanton Liquid Model is used to explore the role of instanton induced dynamics in hadron structure. To support the validity of this model in the chiral regime, the quark mass dependencies of several properties are shown to…
The representation of quark distribution and fragmentation functions in terms of non-local operators is combined with a simple spectator model. This allows us to estimate these functions for the nucleon and the pion ensuring correct…
We show that, in a model based exclusively on constituent-quark degrees of freedom interacting via a potential, the full axial current is conserved if the spectrum of \bar QQ states contains a massless pseudoscalar. The current conservation…
We perform a systematic study of the bound state problem of $D\bar{D}$ and $B\bar{B}$ systems by using effective interaction in our chiral quark model. Our results show that both the interactions of $D\bar{D}$ and $B\bar{B}$ states are…
