The Georgi “Avatar” of Broken Chiral Symmetry in Quantum Chromodynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
We establish that in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) at zero temperature, SUL+R(NF ) exhibits the vector mode conjectured by Georgi and SUL−R(NF ) is realized in either the Nambu-Goldstone mode or else Q5 is also screened from view at infinity. The Wigner-Weyl mode is ruled out unless the beta function in QCD develops an infrared stable zero.

متن کاملFrom enemies to friends: chiral symmetry on the lattice
The physics of strong interactions is invariant under the exchange of left-handed and righthanded quarks, at least in the massless limit. This invariance is reflected in the chiral symmetry of quantum chromodynamics. Surprisingly, it has become clear only recently how to implement this important symmetry in lattice formulations of quantum field theories. We will discuss realizations of exact la...
متن کاملAbout the Realization of Chiral Symmetry in Qcd * 2
Two dimensional massless Quantum Chromodynamics presents many features which resemble those of the true theory. In particular the spectrum consists of mesons and baryons arranged in flavor multiplets without parity doubling. We analyze the implications of chiral symmetry, which is not spontaneously broken in two dimensions, in the spectrum and in the quark condensate. We study how parity doubli...
متن کاملGluon Condensates , Chiral Symmetry Breaking And Pion Wave - function
We consider here chiral symmetry breaking in quantum chromodynamics arising from gluon condensates in vacuum. Through coherent states of gluons simulating a mean field type of approximation, we show that the off-shell gluon condensates of vacuum generate a mass-like contribution for the quarks, giving rise to chiral symmetry breaking. We next note that spontaneous breaking of global chiral symm...
متن کاملChiral Symmetry Restoration and the Georgi Vector Limit
The chiral phase transition at high temperature and/or density is interpreted in terms of Georgi’s vector limit. We discuss three cases as possible support for this scenario: Quark-number susceptibility, cool kaons in heavy-ion process and an instanton-molecule picture for chiral restoration. Both the notion of “mended symmetry” and the Georgi vector limit are suggested to be relevant in nuclea...
