We present a calculation of the low energy constants describing the real and imaginary parts of the $K \to \pi \pi$ decay amplitudes $A_0$ and $A_2$. Leading and next leading order chiral perturbation theory is used and its applicability…
Hyperon non-leptonic weak decay amplitudes are studied in the chiral perturbation theory. We employ the low energy effective weak Hamiltonian which contains the perturbative QCD correction. To include the non-perturbative QCD effect, quark…
We report on our determination of the values of the one and two loop low energy constants appearing in the Chiral Perturbation Theory calculation of the pi-pi scattering amplitude. For this we use a precise sum rule determination of…
We study the unknown coupling constants that appear at order $p^4$ in the Chiral Perturbation Theory analysis of $K \to \pi \gamma^* \to \pi l^+ l^-$, $K^{+-} \to \pi^{+-} \gamma \gamma$ and $K \to \pi \pi \gamma$ decays. To that end, we…
We calculate the form factors of the $K \to \pi l \nu$ semileptonic decays in three-flavor lattice QCD, and study their chiral behavior as a function of the momentum transfer and the Nambu-Goldstone boson masses. Chiral symmetry is exactly…
Measurements of tau lepton, because of its long lifetime, large mass and parity sensitive couplings lead to broad physics interest. From the perspective of high-energy experiments such as at LHC, knowledge of tau lepton properties offers an…
The role of the quark condensate for the low energy structure of QCD is discussed in some detail. In particular, the dependence of M_pi on m_u and m_d and the low energy theorems for the pi-pi scattering amplitude are reviewed. The new data…
We study the masses of the doubly bottom baryons and the charmed bottom baryons up to $\mathcal{O}\left(p^{3}\right)$ in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. For the low-energy constants, $g_{A}$ was determined in the quark model, and…
Hadronic tau decay precision data are analyzed with account of both perturbative and power corrections of high orders within QCD. It is found that contributions of high order power corrections are essential for extracting a numerical value…
In the chiral limit, the $D=6$ contribution to the Operator Product Expansion (OPE) of the $\mathrm{VV-AA}$ correlator of quark currents only depends on two vacuum condensates, which can be related to hadronic matrix elements associated to…
We perform a detailed, fully-correlated study of the chiral behavior of the pion mass and decay constant, based on 2+1 flavor lattice QCD simulations. These calculations are implemented using tree-level, O(a)-improved Wilson fermions, at…
In this talk, I first motivate the use of Chiral Perturbation Theory in the context of Lattice QCD. In particular, I explain how partially quenched QCD, which has, in general, unequal valence- and sea-quark masses, can be used to obtain…
We discuss the truncation of low energy effective action of QCD below the chiral symmetry breaking (CSB) scale, including all operators of dimensionality less or equal to 6 which can be built with quark and chiral fields. We perform its…
Motivated by recent experimental advances in the corresponding measurements, non-leptonic hyperon decays are calculated, for the first time in a relativistic manner, in Chiral Perturbation Theory at next-to-leading order (NLO). On the one…
Recent developments and selected topics in low-energy QCD are summarized, from chiral effective field theory to systems with strange and charm quarks, from lattice QCD to precision experiments.
The QCD corrections to the R_{\tau}^{12} moment of the invariant mass distribution in hadronic decays of the tau lepton are discussed. The next-to-next-to-leading order prediction is shown to be stable with respect to change of the…
This talks contains a short introduction to Chiral Perturbation Theory and the existing calculations to two-loop order in the mesonic sector. I include a discussion on which quantities the expansion can be organized in. The present best…
I discuss the recent attempts to build an effective chiral Lagrangian incorporating massive resonance states. A useful approximation scheme to organize the resonance Lagrangian is provided by the large-Nc limit of QCD. Integrating out the…
In a continuation of an ongoing program, we use staggered chiral perturbation theory to calculate the one-loop chiral logarithms and analytic terms in the pseudoscalar meson leptonic decay constants, $f_{\pi^+_5}$ and $f_{K^+_5}$. We…
The order parameter of the chiral phase transition is directly related to the infrared part of the spectrum of the QCD Dirac operator. This part of the spectrum follows from the low energy limit of QCD which is given by a partition function…
