Progress in Chiral Perturbation Theory

نویسنده

چکیده

After a short status report on chiral perturbation theory, I review recent progress in determining some of the low-energy couplings by matching the effective theory to QCD. Consequences for Kl3 decays and for the extraction of the CKM matrix element Vus are reported. Hadronic vacuum polarization at low energies and its impact on the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon are discussed.

ππ scattering, pion form factors and chiral perturbation theory

I discuss recent progress in our understanding of the ππ scattering amplitude at low energy thanks to the combined use of chiral perturbation theory and dispersion relations. I also comment on the criticism raised by Peláez and Ynduráin on this work.

The lowest-lying spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 baryon magnetic moments in chiral perturbation theory

We review some recent progress in our understanding of the lowest-lying spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 baryon magnetic moments (MMs) in terms of Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT). In particular, we show that at next-to-leading-order ChPT can describe the MMs of the octet baryons quite well. We also make predictions for the decuplet MMs at the same chiral order. Among them, the MMs of the ∆ and ∆ are fou...

Finite-volume meson propagators in quenched chiral perturbation theory

Recent progress in the formulation of chiral fermions on the lattice makes it possible to approach the regime of the physical light quark masses. However, lattice volumes V = L needed to ensure negligible finite size effects are prohibitively large for such light quarks. Only when L is very large compared to the Compton wavelength of the lightest particles of the theory (i.e. the pions) are the...
