We consider the dependence of the pion and kaon decay constants on the up, down and strange quark masses in QCD with strict isospin symmetry. The role of dynamical vector meson degrees of freedom is scrutinized in terms of an effective…

Recent results on pion physics from lattice QCD are reviewed. We discuss quark mass dependences of pion mass and decay constant and compare them with the predictions from chiral perturbation theory. In particular we focus on the convergence…

We use low energy pion-pion phase-shifts in order to make distinction between the alternatives for the value of the quark-antiquark condensate $B_0$ in the chiral limit. We will consider the amplitude up to and including ${\cal O}(p^4)$…

We construct effective one-loop vertices and propagators in the linear sigma model at finite temperature, satisfying the chiral Ward identities and thus respecting chiral symmetry, treating the pion momentum, pion mass and temperature as…

We evaluate widths and shifts of pionic atoms using a theoretical microscopical potential in which the pion decay constant $f_\pi$ is changed by an in--medium density dependent one ($f_\pi(\rho)$), predicted by different partial Chiral…

An analysis of the pion mass and pion decay constant is performed using mixed-action Lattice QCD calculations with domain-wall valence quarks on ensembles of rooted, staggered n_f = 2+1 MILC configurations. Calculations were performed at…

We show that processes involving pions that remain very near their mass-shell can be reliably computed in the pionless effective field theory, with the pion integrated in as a heavy field. As an application, we compute the pion-deuteron…

We analyze the radiative pion decay pi+ -> e+ nu_e gamma within nonlocal chiral quark models that include wave function renormalization. In this framework we calculate the vector and axial-vector form factors FV and FA at q^2=0 --where q^2…

Pion transition form factor for the process $\gamma*\gamma*\to \pi^0$ at space-like values of photon momenta is calculated within the effective quark-meson model with the interaction induced by instanton exchange. The leading and…

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…

We revisit the renormalization prescription for the quark-meson model in an extended mean-field approximation, where vacuum quark fluctuations are included. At a given cutoff scale the model parameters are fixed by fitting vacuum…

We study in various chiral models the pion charge radius, $\pi_{e3}$ form factor ratio, $\pi^\circ \to \gamma \gamma$ amplitude, charge pion polarizabilities, $\gamma\gamma \to \pi^\circ \pi^\circ$ amplitude at low energies and the $\pi\pi$…

Using the fact that the contribution of the states with isospin I=0 in the difference of the amplitudes of the processes \gamma \gamma->\pi^+\pi^- and \gamma\gamma->\pi^0\pi^0 is very small, we have analyzed the dispersion sum rules for the…

We calculate the branching ratios of the yet unmeasured eta' decays into four pions, based on a combination of chiral perturbation theory and vector-meson dominance. The decays eta' --> 2(pi+ pi-) and eta' --> pi+ pi- 2pi0 are P-wave…

Pion pion scattering is studied in a generalized linear sigma model which contains two scalar nonets (one of quark-antiquark type and the other of diquark-antidiquark type) and two corresponding pseudoscalar nonets. An interesting feature…

We calculate pion mass, pion decay constant, PCAC quark mass and nucleon mass in two flavour lattice QCD with unimproved Wilson fermion and gauge actions. Simulations are performed using DD-HMC algorithm at two lattice spacings and two…

We study the lowest lying $\pi^+ \pi^-$ resonance R, bound by the long range Coulomb potential and destabilized by short range strong interactions mediating the dominant decay into two neutral pions. Parametrizing the corresponding partial…

We derive an asymptotic formula a la Luscher for the finite volume correction to the pion decay constant: this is expressed as an integral over the < 3 \pi | A_\mu|0 > amplitude after proper subtraction of the pion pole contribution. We…

We project onto the light-front the pion's Poincare'-covariant Bethe-Salpeter wave-function, obtained using two different approximations to the kernels of QCD's Dyson-Schwinger equations. At an hadronic scale both computed results are…

We consider the quadratic scalar radius of the pion, $<r^2_{{\rm S},\pi}>$, and the mixed $K-\pi$ scalar radius, $<r^2_{{\rm S},K\pi}>$. With respect to the second, we point out that the more recent (post-1974) experimental results in…
