Electromagnetic Emission Rates and Spectral Sum Rules ∗

چکیده
The electromagnetic emission rates at SPS energies satisfy spectral constraints in leading order in the pion and nucleon densities. These constraints follow from the strictures of broken chiral symmetry. We saturate these constraints using available data, leading to model independent emission rates from a hadronic gas. With a simple fire-ball scenario, only large nucleon densities may account for the present CERES data.

متن کاملNeural network parametrization of spectral functions from hadronic tau decays and determination of QCD vacuum condensates
The spectral function ρV −A(s) is determined from ALEPH and OPAL data on hadronic tau decays using a neural network parametrization trained to retain the full experimental information on errors, their correlations and chiral sum rules: the DMO sum rule, the first and second Weinberg sum rules and the electromagnetic mass splitting of the pion sum rule. Nonperturbative QCD vacuum condensates can...
متن کاملSpectral density functions and their sum rules in an effective chiral field theory
The validity of Weinberg’s two sum rules for massless QCD, as well as the six additional sum rules introduced into chiral perturbation theory by Gasser and Leutwyler, are investigated for the extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio chiral model that includes vector and axial vector degrees of freedom. A detailed analysis of the vector, axial vector and coupled pion plus longitudinal axial vector modes is g...
متن کاملChiral Sum Rules and Duality in QCD
The ALEPH data on the vector and axial-vector spectral functions, extracted from tau-lepton decays, is used in order to test local and global duality, as well as a set of four QCD chiral sum rules. These are the Das-Mathur-Okubo sum rule, the first and second Weinberg sum rules, and a relation for the electromagnetic pion mass difference. We find these sum rules to be poorly saturated, even whe...
متن کاملIsospin Breaking in the Extraction of Isovector and Isoscalar Spectral Functions from e+e− → hadrons
A finite energy sum rule (FESR) analysis of the isospin-breaking vector current correlator 〈0|T ( V 3 μ V 8 ν ) |0〉 is used to determine the isospin-breaking electromagnetic (EM) decay constants of the low-lying vector mesons. These results are used to evaluate the corrections required to extract the flavor diagonal 33 and 88 resonance contributions from the full resonance EM contributions to t...
