Journal ArticleDOI

Baryon Chiral Perturbation Theory in Manifestly Lorentz Invariant Form

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the standard low energy expansion in powers of meson momenta and light quark masses in general only converges in part of the low energy region.
Journal ArticleDOI

Charge correlations and topological susceptibility in QCD

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyze temperature effects and volume effects in the correlation functions of the vector and axial quark charges and of the winding number, using the large-volume expansion of the effective low-energy theory.

Phonons as Goldstone Bosons

TL;DR: In this article, the implications of the hidden, spontaneously broken symmetry for the properties of sound waves of a solid are analyzed, and it is shown that the equations of motion for a sound wave necessarily contain nonlinear terms, describing phonon-phonon scattering.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energy and momentum in chiral theories

TL;DR: In this article, the energy momentum tensor to order 4 in chiral perturbation theory was calculated and new terms not present in previous work entered the effective Lagrangian.
Journal ArticleDOI

Light Higgs particle in decays of K and η mesons

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a complete theoretical analysis of the decay amplitude K → π H and η → ΀ H, where H is a hypothetical light Higgs particle, based on the consistent use of the effective chiral lagrangian technique.
