Strong Interactions of Light Flavours
نویسنده
چکیده
After an introduction to chiral perturbation theory, the effective field theory of the standard model at low energies, a brief overview is given of applications to lightflavour physics. Three topics in the strong interactions of pseudoscalar mesons are then discussed in some detail: loops and chiral logs, pion-pion scattering and isospin violation. Lectures given at the Advanced School on QCD 2000, Benasque, Spain July 3 6, 2000 To appear in the Proceedings Work supported in part by TMR, EC-Contract No. ERBFMRX-CT980169 (EURODAΦNE).

HEAVY QUARKONIA – A Review of the Experimental Status
Because strong interactions are flavourindependent, it would appear that they can be equally well studied in the spectroscopy of light or heavy quarks. However, the highly relativistic nature of quarks in light-quark (u, d, s) hadrons, the large value of the strong coupling constant, αs (& 0.6), and the near equality of the masses of the u, d, s quarks, makes the light quark states strongly ove...
متن کاملWeak Interactions of Light Flavours 1
An overview is given of weak interaction physics of the light flavours. It starts with the definition of the CKM matrix and the measurement of its components in the light-flavour sector via semi-leptonic decays. The main part of the lectures is devoted to non-leptonic decays with a main emphasis on analytical calculations of K → ππ and K ↔ K0. It finishes with an overview of Chiral Perturbation...

متن کاملStrong Coupling QCD in the Continuum
A short overview of studies of strong coupling problems in hadron physics is presented. The Schwinger-Dyson/Bethe-Salpeter approach in the continuum allows the perturbative regime to be connected to the world of strong coupling that controls confinement and chiral dynamics that in turn determines the properties of light hadrons with just one scale, viz. ΛQCD, and with the addition of current ma...
