N ov 1 99 9 QCD SPECTRAL SUM RULES AND SPONTANEOUSLY BROKEN CHIRAL SYMMETRY ∗

چکیده
The gap ∆ = 4πf π ≃ 1.2 GeV of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking is introduced as a scale delineating resonance and continuum regions in the QCD spectral sum rules for vector mesons. Basic current algebra results are easily recovered, and accurate sum rules for the lower moments of the spectral distributions are derived. The in-medium scaling of vector meson masses finds a straightforward interpretation , at least in the narrow width limit.

Vector mesons in Quasilocal Quark Models
We consider the Quasilocal Quark Model of NJL type including vector and axial-vector four-fermion interaction with derivatives. In the presence of a strong attraction in the scalar channel the chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken and as a consequence the composite meson states are generated in the vector and axialvector channels. The appropriate set of Chiral Symmetry Restoration Sum Rules i...

Beyond the scale of spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry light and strange baryons should be considered as systems of three constituent quarks with confining interaction and a chiral interaction that is mediated by Goldstone bosons between the constituent quarks. The flavor-spin structure and sign of the short-range part of the Goldstone boson exchange interaction reduces the SU(6) F S symme...

We summarize recent developments in our understanding of low-mass quark-antiquark excitations in hadronic matter under various different conditions. This includes the ther-modynamics of the chiral condensate, pions as Goldstone bosons in normal nuclear matter, and excursions into extreme territory of the QCD phase diagram: lepton pair production from a fireball expanding through the transition ...
متن کاملStudy of Spectral Modification of Hadrons through Electromagnetic Probes
A fundamental property of QCD with two light quark flavours is the approximate chiral symmetry which plays a very important role in the understanding of low energy hadron physics. Since this symmetry is not manifest in the observed particle degeneracies it is believed that chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken by the vacuum. Under conditions of high temperature or density one expects that the...

When the number of colors, Nc, of the QCD gauge group is taken large, QCD simplifies. One may then hope to learn about the real world with Nc = 3, in an expansion in 1/Nc . The relevance of the large-Nc expansion for nuclear physics was first discussed in the seminal paper by Witten, where it was argued that the nucleon-nucleon (NN) potential grows as Nc in the large-Nc limit, and Hartree theor...
