TL;DR: In the low-energy frontier, the main goal is to perform precision tests of the standard theory and to make up for the smaller energies, high sensitivity is an indispensable requirement (factories).

TL;DR: An introduction to chiral perturbation theory is given in this article, including a discussion of power counting, the Wess-Zumino term, the values of the coupling constants and the inclusion of the effects of other resonances.

Abstract: Advances in particle physics are achieved on two experimental frontiers: Experiments using the highest available energies search for new degrees of freedom which are either expected in the standard theory (top, Higgs) or would point to new physics. At the low-energy frontier, the main goal is to perform precision tests of the standard theory. To make up for the smaller energies, high sensitivity is an indispensable requirement (factories).

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that only planar diagrams with the quarks at the edges dominate; the topological structure of the perturbation series in 1/N is identical to that of the dual models, such that the number 1/n corresponds to the dual coupling constant.

TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic study is made of the non-perturbative effects in quantum chromodynamics, where the basic object is the two-point functions of various currents and the terms of this series are shown to be of two distinct types.

TL;DR: In this article, the existing results concerning mesons and glue states in the large-N limit of QCD are reviewed, and it is shown how to fit baryons into this picture.
