Integrating out strange quarks in ChPT

چکیده

We study three flavour chiral perturbation theory in a limit where the strange quark mass is much larger than the external momenta and the up and down quark masses, and where the external fields are those of two–flavour chiral perturbation theory. In this case, the theory reduces to the one of SU(2)L × SU(2)R. Through this reduction, one can work out the strange quark mass dependence of the LECs in the two–flavour case. We present the pertinent relations at two–loop order for F,B and li.

Partially Quenched Qcd with Non-degenerate Dynamical Quarks * Lattice Simulations

We discuss the importance of using partially quenched theories with three degenerate quarks for extrapolating to QCD, and present some relevant results from chiral perturbation theory. Simulations of lattice QCD have, to date, largely used the quenched (Q), or partially quenched (PQ), approximations. These approximations introduce unphysical artifacts, some of which can be analyzed using chiral...

Status of Chiral Perturbation Theory

A survey is made of semileptonic and nonleptonic kaon decays in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. The emphasis is on what has been done rather than how it was done. The theoretical predictions are compared with available experimental results. Talk given at the Workshop on Heavy Quarks at Fixed Target Rheinfels Castle, St. Goar, Germany Oct. 3 6, 1996 To appear in the Proceedings 1 Ph...

We discuss the range of validity of chiral perturbation theory when applied to the systems of heavy-light mesons. Having in mind the recent experimental evidence according to which the heavy-light scalar and axial states are closer to the ground states than anticipated, we revisited the prediction for the chiral behavior of the Bq −B 0 q mixing amplitude and examined the impact of nearness of t...

Physics of Strange Matter

All known nuclei are made of the two nucleons, the proton and the neutron. Besides those two lightest baryons there exist still a couple of other stable (but weakly decaying) baryons, the hyperons. These were found for the first time in cosmic ray experiments and were entitled as ‘strange’ because of their unusual long lifetimes of about 10−10 sec. For their notation in the hadron zoo of elemen...
