On the dynamical breaking of chiral symmetry: a new mechanism
We consider a U(1) gauge theory, minimally coupled to a massless Dirac field, where a higher-derivative term is added to the pure gauge sector, as in the Lee-Wick models. We find that this term can trigger chiral symmetry breaking at low energy in the weak coupling regime. Then, the fermion field acquires a mass that turns out to be a function of both the energy scale associated to the higher-d...
متن کاملAspects of Dynamical Chiral Symmetry Breaking
Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking is a nonperturbative phenomenon that may be studied using QCD’s gap equation. Model-independent results can be obtained with a nonperturbative and symmetry preserving truncation. The gap equation yields the massive dressed-quark propagator, which has a spectral representation when considered as a function of the current-quark mass. This enables an explication ...
متن کاملNew Method for Dynamical Fermions and Chiral-Symmetry Breaking
where the fermionic degrees of freedom have been integrated out, and N f is number of flavors taking into account the species doubling. Spl is the plaquette energy [Spl = ∑ pRe(Up)/Nc, for a compact theory, and Spl = − ∑ p θ 2 p/2, for noncompact QED]. The fermionic determinant det∆(m,U) accounts for the effects of dynamical fermions; its numerical evaluation requires in general a huge CPU time...
متن کاملFermion determinant with dynamical chiral symmetry breaking
One -loop fermion determinant is discussed for the case in which dynamical chiral symmetry breaking caused by momentum dependent fermion self energy Σ(p2) take place. The obtained series generalizes the heat kernel expansion for hard fermion mass. PACS number(s): 03.65.Db, 11.10Ef, 11.30.Rd, 12.39.Fe In quantum field theory, 1-loop quantum correction of fermions is from fermion determinant. It ...
متن کاملThe decay τ → 3πντ as a probe of the mechanism of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking
The decays τ → 3π+ντ are analyzed at one loop order in the framework of Generalized Chiral Perturbation Theory, in order to test the sensitivity to the size of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking parameters, contained in the S-wave. The latter, due to a kinematical suppression, at threshold, of the P-wave, is relatively large enough to be detectable at high energy machines, through azimuthal l...
