We explore the link between the chiral symmetry of QCD and the numerical results of the light-front quark model, analyzing both the two-point and three-point functions of the pion. Including the axial-vector coupling as well as the…
The chiral anomaly is a fundamental property of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). It governs the transition amplitudes for processes involving an odd number of Goldstone bosons of chiral symmetry breaking. In case of the coupling of three pions…
The partial widths of the decays $D^+_s \to \phi \pi^+$ and $D^+_s \to \pi^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$ - nonresonant are computed within the effective quark model with chiral symmetry involving Heavy quark effective theory (HQET) and Chiral perturbation…
The nonperturbative, Dyson-Schwinger equation approach to solving QCD provides a straightforward, microscopic description of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and confinement. It is an ideal tool for the study of pion observables. This is…
The lifetime measurement of pi+pi- atoms (A2pi) with 10% precision provides in a model independent way the difference between the S-wave pion-pion scattering lengths for isospin 0 and 2, |a0 -a2|, with 5% accuracy. The scattering lengths a0…
Within renormalizable theories the triangle diagram correctly reproduces the lifetime of the neutral pion $\pi ^0$. However, effective relativistic quark models which contain a second scale besides the quark mass seem unable to give the…
A simple matching procedure is proposed to extract constraints on effective meson theories. In this way, a QCD prediction for the pion decay constant is found, F(pi)=2 m(pi)/pi, i.e. approximately 90MeV. The same procedure also determines…
We evaluate the pion_0 into two gammas decay amplitude by an effective action derived from QCD in the quark composites approach, getting the standard value. We also verify that our effective action correctly reproduces the chiral anomaly.
The dimensionless parameter $\xi = M_\pi^2/(16 \pi^2 F_\pi^2)$, where $F_\pi$ is the pion decay constant and $M_\pi$ is the pion mass, is expected to control the convergence of chiral perturbation theory applicable to QCD. Here we…
In QCD with two massless quarks, the chiral phase transition is plausibly in the same universality class as the classical O(4) magnet. To test this hypothesis, critical exponents characterizing the behaviour of universal quantities near the…
The anomalous dimension $\gamma_m =1$ in the infrared region near conformal edge in the broken phase of the large $N_f$ QCD has been shown by the ladder Schwinger-Dyson equation and also by the lattice simulation for $N_f=8$ for $ N_c=3$.…
To date numerical simulations of lattice QCD have not found a chiral phase transition of first order which is expected to occur for sufficiently light pions. We show how the restoration of an exact global chiral symmetry can strongly…
The dimensionless parameter $\xi' = M^2/(16 \pi^2 F^2)$, where $F$ is the pion decay constant in the chiral limit and $M$ is the pion mass at leading order in the quark mass, is expected to control the convergence of chiral perturbation…
Violation of the $U(1)$ axial symmetry in QCD is stricter than the chiral $SU(2)$ breaking, simply because of the presence of the quantum axial anomaly. If the QCD gauge coupling is sent to zero, the strength of the $U(1)$ axial breaking…
We propose a formalism to extract the $\gamma\pi\to\pi\pi$ chiral anomaly $F_{3\pi}$ from calculations in lattice QCD performed at larger-than-physical pion masses. To this end, we start from a dispersive representation of the…
In the chiral limit of QCD, the pion decay constant F can be extracted from lattice gauge theory by means of a coupling to isospin chemical potential. Here we compute the leading correction due to finite volume in the epsilon-expansion of…
As increased statistics and new ensembles with light pions have become available within the CLS effort, we complete previous work by inspecting the chiral behaviour of the pion decay constant. We discuss the validity of Chiral Perturbation…
We explore the chiral aspects of extrapolation of observables calculated within lattice QCD, using the nucleon magnetic moments as an example. Our analysis shows that the biggest effects of chiral dynamics occur for quark masses…
We review two manifestations of chiral symmetry breaking in the pion sector. First, we examine the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude at threshold, which is completely determined by the chiral symmetry breaking part of the strong interaction,…
We perform a lattice QCD calculation of the \pi^0\to\gamma\gamma transition form factor and the associated decay width. We use a Euclidean time integral of the relevant three-point function to compute the decay amplitude for two-photon…
