Operator Product Expansion and Quark-Hadron Duality: Facts and Riddles
نویسنده
چکیده
We review the status of the practical operator product expansion (OPE), when applied to twopoint correlators of QCD currents which interpolate to mesonic resonances, in view of the violations of local quark-hadron duality. Covered topics are: a mini-review of mesonic QCD sum rules in vacuum, at finite temperature, or at finite baryon density, a comparison of model calculations of current-current correlation functions in 2D and 4D with the OPE expressions, a discussion of meson distribution amplitudes in the light of nonperturbatively nonlocal modifications of the OPE, and a reorganization of the OPE which (partially) resums powers of covariant derivatives.

متن کاملViolation of Quark-Hadron Duality and Spectral Chiral Moments in QCD
We analyze the spectral moments of the V-A two-point correlation function. Using all known short-distance constraints and the most recent experimental data from tau decays, we determine the lowest spectral moments, trying to assess the uncertainties associated with the so-called violations of quark-hadron duality. We have generated a large number of “acceptable” spectral functions, satisfying a...
متن کاملDeep inelastic scattering and factorization in the ’t Hooft Model
We study in detail deep inelastic scattering in the ’t Hooft model. We are able to analytically check current conservation and to obtain analytic expressions for the matrix elements with relative precision O(1/Q2) for 1− x ≫ β/Q. This allows us to compute the electron-meson differential cross section and its moments with 1/Q precision. For the former we find maximal violations of quark-hadron d...

5 Quark-hadron duality 51 6 Conclusion 55 ii 0.1 Preface This Thesis is a review of the inclusive decays of heavy hadron. It is based on the author's study of two issues which are important in the description of the inclusive beauty decays given by the heavy quark expansion. • Evaluation of the expectation values of the four-quark operators in the heavy quark expansion, • Study on the validity ...
متن کاملNon leptonic heavy hadron decays and local duality
We discuss local duality for weak non leptonic B and Λb decays in themb → ∞ limit under the hypothesis of factorization and in the Shifman-Voloshin limit. We show that, under these hypotheses, local duality holds for the first two terms in the 1/mb expansion and at the order αs in the perturbative expansion. The possible relevance of these results for the operator product expansion evaluation o...
