The Anomalous Magnetic Moment of Quarks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the case of massless current quarks we find that the breaking of chiral symmetry usually triggers the generation of an anomalous magnetic moment for the quarks. We show that the kernel of the Ward identity for the vector vertex yields an important contribution. We compute the anomalous magnetic moment in several quark models. The results show that it is hard to escape a measurable anomalous magnetic moment for the quarks in the case of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking.

Non-Relativistic Limit of Neutron Beta-Decay Cross-Section in the Presence of Strong Magnetic Field
One of the most important reactions of the URCA that lead to the cooling of a neutron star, is neutron beta-decay ( ). In this research, the energy spectra and wave functions of massive fermions taking into account the Anomalous Magnetic Moment (AMM) in the presence of a strong changed magnetic field are calculated. For this purpose, the Dirac-Pauli equation for charged and neutral fermions is ...
متن کاملAnomalous chromomagnetic moments of quarks and large transverse energy jets.
We consider the jet cross sections for gluons coupling to quarks with an anomalous chromomagnetic moment. We then apply this to the deviation and bounds from QCD found in the CDF and D0 Fermilab data, respectively, to find a range of possible values for the anomalous moments. The quadratic and quartic terms in the anomalous moments can fit to the rise of a deviation with transverse energy. Sinc...
متن کاملRadiative Transitions and the Quarkonium Magnetic Moment
I discuss heavy quarkonium radiative transitions and the related issue of the quarkonium magnetic moment inside effective field theories. Differences in set up and conclusions with respect to typical phenomenological approaches are outlined. Heavy quarkonium radiative transitions have been studied for long time in the framework of phenomenological models 1–14 (for a recent review see 15). In a ...
متن کاملHadronic loop corrections to the muon anomalous magnetic moment.
The dominant theoretical uncertainties in both the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and the value of the electromagnetic coupling at the Z scale, M(Z), arise from their hadronic contributions. Since these will ultimately dominate the experimental errors, we study the correlation between them, as well as with other fundamental parameters. To this end we present analytical formulas for the Q...
متن کاملShould the Strange Magnetic Moment of the Nucleon be Positive?
The strange magnetic moment of the nucleon (µ s) is examined as part of the nucleon's isoscalar anomalous moment. The dominant up and down quark effects in the anomalous moment may actually tend to favor µ s > 0, which is contrary to the negative values that generally result from model calculations. The possible origins of this apparent discrepancy are considered. Several years ago, Kaplan and ...
