Quark Propagation in the Random Instanton Vacuum

چکیده
This is the first of a series of papers devoted to a systematic study of QCD correlation functions in a framework of 'instanton vacuum' models. The topic of this paper is to work out approximate formulae for quark propagators in a multi-instanton environment. As an application, and also as a necessary step toward understanding the correlation functions, we study the propagators of scalar and spinor quarks, using the simplest possible model, the so called 'random instanton vacuum' (RIV). Results related to heavy-light mesons, are found to be very consistent with phenomenology.

Massive field contributions to the QCD vacuum tunneling amplitude
For the one-loop contribution to the QCD vacuum tunneling amplitude by quarks of generic mass value, we make use of a calculational scheme exploiting a large mass expansion together with a small mass expansion. The large mass expansion for the effective action is given by a series involving higher-order Seeley-DeWitt coefficients, and we carry this expansion up to order 1/(mρ)8, where m denotes...
متن کاملLow Energy Constants of Chiral Perturbation Theory from the Instanton Vacuum
In the framework of the instanton vacuum model we make expansion over the current mass m and number of colors Nc and evaluate O(1/Nc, m, m/Nc, m lnm/Nc)corrections to the dynamical quark mass M , the quark condensate 〈q̄q〉, the pion mass Mπ and decay constant Fπ. We found the SU(2) χPT low-energy constants l̄3, l̄4 in a good correspondence with the phenomenology and lattice calculations. Introduct...
متن کاملQuark distribution in the pion within the instanton liquid model
The leading-twist valence-quark distribution function in the pion is obtained at a low normalization scale of an order of the inverse average size of an instanton ρc. The momentum dependent quark mass and the quark-pion vertex are constructed in the framework of the instanton liquid model, using a gauge invariant approach. The parameters of instanton vacuum, the effective instanton radius and q...
متن کاملTwist – 4 quark – quark correlations in the pion from the instanton vacuum
The second moment of the isospin–2 structure function of the pion, F π+ 2 +F π− 2 −2F π 0 2 , is determined by the pion matrix element of a four–quark operator of twist 4. This isospin–2 operator cannot mix with lower–dimensional operators, and thus provides a clean probe of the quark–quark correlations in the pion. We calculate the matrix element in the effective chiral theory based on the ins...
متن کاملOff - diagonal quark distribution functions of the pion within an effective single instanton approximation
We develop a relativistic quark model for hadron structure which, incorporates the non-trivial structure of the vacuum of Quantum Chromodynamics as modelled by instantons, and is defined taking properly into account gauge invariance. Hadrons are boundstates of quarks and the strong quark-hadron vertices are determined from an instanton induced effective lagrangian. The parameters of the model, ...
