Vector and axial vector mesons in a nonlocal chiral quark model

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2016-09-07 v2

Abstract

Basic features of nonstrange vector and axial vector mesons are analyzed in the framework of a chiral quark model that includes nonlocal four fermion couplings. Unknown model parameters are determined from some input values of masses and decay constants, while nonlocal form factors are taken from a fit to lattice QCD results for effective quark propagators. Numerical results show a good agreement with the observed meson phenomenology.
