We review recent developments in exploring possible precursory phenomena of partial restoration of chiral symmetry in nuclear medium by examining the spectral function in the scalar channel. We emphasize that the wave function…
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…
The pseudoscalar correlator is an ideal lattice probe for thermal modifications to quarkonium spectra, given that it is not compromised by a contribution from a large transport peak. We construct a perturbative spectral function…
We determine the volume and mass dependence of scalar and pseudoscalar two-point functions in N_f-flavour QCD, in the presence of an isospin chemical potential and at fixed gauge-field topology. We obtain these results at second order in…
The composite operator formalism is applied to QCD at finite temperature to calculate the masses of scalar and pseudoscalar mesons. In particular the ratio of the sigma mass to the pion mass is an interesting measure of the degree of chiral…
The dependence of the pseudoscalar meson mass and decay constant is compared to one-loop Partially Quenched Chiral Perturbation Theory (PQChPT) in a numerical simulation with two light dynamical quarks. The characteristic behaviour with…
We compute euclidean coordinate space correlation functions in a holographic model of QCD. We concentrate, in particular, on channels that are related to the U(1)_A problem, the flavor-singlet axialvector, pseudoscalar meson, and…
The chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) of pions is extended to include vector mesons as well as pertinent degrees of freedom. By counting the typical momentum scale of vector mesons as order of $Q$ and vector meson masses as of the order of…
The axial-vector mesons $a_1(1260)$, $b_1(1235)$, $f_1(1285)$, $h_1(1170)$, $h_1(1380)$, and $K_1(1270)$ are dynamically generated in the unitized chiral perturbation theory. Such a picture has been tested extensively in the past few years.…
We investigate mesonic screening correlators at T=2T_c using the overlap Fermions in the quenched approximation, where T_c is the QCD phase transition temperature. Using lattices with temporal extent up to 8, we found that both pseudoscalar…
We consider finite volume effects on the electromagnetic form factor of the pion. We compute the peudoscalar-vector-pseudoscalar correlator in the $\epsilon$ expansion of chiral perturbation theory up to the next-to-leading order and find a…
Temporal meson correlators and their spectral functions are calculated in the deconfined phase using the hard thermal loop resummation technique. The spectral functions exhibit strong medium effects coming from the hard thermal loop…
We measure correlations appropriate for favour-singlet mesons using dynamical quark configurations from UKQCD. Improved methods of evaluating the disconnected quark diagrams are presented. The scalar and pseudoscalar meson channels are…
We perform a complete one-loop calculation of meson-meson scattering, and of the scalar and pseudoscalar form factors in U(3) chiral perturbation theory with the inclusion of explicit resonance fields. This effective field theory takes into…
We report on the progress of understanding spatial correlation functions in high temperature QCD. We study isovector meson operators in $N_f=2$ QCD using domain-wall fermions on lattices of $N_s=32$ and different quark masses. It has…
Using quenched and unquenched chiral perturbation theory we compute vector and axial current two-point functions at finite volume and fixed gauge field topology, in the so-called \epsilon-regime of QCD. A comparison of these results with…
Corrections to $K\rightarrow\pi\pi\pi$ induced by vector and scalar meson exchange are investigated within chiral perturbation theory.
We calculate the vacuum-expectation-value, the meson mass and the meson decay constant to next-to-next-to-leading-order in the chiral expansion for QCD-like theories with general $N_F$ degenerate flavours for the cases with a complex…
We discuss meson-meson scattering at next-to-next-to-leading order in the chiral expansion for QCD-like theories with general $n$ degenerate flavours for the cases with a complex, real and pseudo-real representation. I.e. with global…
Pseudo-scalar and vector meson correlation functions were calculated at temperatures below and above the deconfinement transition using ${\cal O}(a)$ improved Wilson fermions in quenched lattice QCD. The spectral functions were…
