Abstract

We provide a snapshot of recent progress in hadron physics made using QCD's Dyson-Schwinger equations, reviewing the generation of a quark anomalous chromomagnetic moment, which may explain the longstanding puzzle of the a1a_1-ρ\rho mass splitting, and the form of the pion and kaon valence-quark parton distribution functions.
