متن کاملTHE FRANK KINETIC MODEL FOR SPONTANEOUS CHIRAL SYMMETRY BREAKING WITH VARIABLE CONCENTRATION OF THE ACHIRAL SUBSTRATE
This paper considers the possibility of spontaneous transition of aracemic mixture (composed of equal amounts of two enantiomeric species, say L and D) into a monochiral state (in which only one enantiomer, say L, is present). Transitions of this kind have been recently experimentally observed. A plausible approach to this phenomenon is a model put forward by Frank, based on simple laws of ...
متن کاملChiral Symmetry Breaking by Instantons
Instantons are certain configurations of the Yang–Mills potentials Aμ(x) satisfying the equations of motion D μ F b μν = 0 in euclidean space, i.e. in imaginary time. The solution has been found by Belavin, Polyakov, Schwartz and Tiupkin in 1975 [1]; the name ”instanton” has been suggested by ’t Hooft in 1976 [2], who also made a major contribution to the investigation of the instantons propert...
متن کاملChiral symmetry breaking in QCD Lite
A distinctive feature of the presence of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in QCD is the condensation of low modes of the Dirac operator near the origin. The rate of condensation must be equal to the slope of M πF 2 π/2 with respect to the quark mass m in the chiral limit, where Mπ and Fπ are the mass and the decay constant of the Nambu-Goldstone bosons. We compute the spectral density of th...
متن کاملChiral Symmetry Breaking in an External Field ∗
The effects of an external field on the dynamics of chiral symmetry breaking are studied using quenched, ladder QED as our model gauge field theory. It is found that a uniform external magnetic field enables the chiral symmetry to be spontaneously broken at weak gauge couplings, in contrast with the situation when no external field is present. The broken chiral symmetry is restored at high temp...
