2. Studies of the axial-vector transition form factors of the process Ω− → W−Ξ0 in chiral perturbation theory
University essay from Uppsala universitet/KärnfysikAbstract : This work is included in a broader research of the hadron theory group of Uppsala University and its collaborators tackling the quest for an understanding of the quark distribution inside hadrons by joining threedifferent approaches of QCD namely chiral perturbation theory, dispersion theory and lattice QCD. This thesis contributes by computing in chiral perturbation theory, the quark-masses dependence of form factors. READ MORE

3. On the vector transition form factors in the Ω- → Ξ0 W- decay
University essay from Uppsala universitet/KärnfysikAbstract : To learn more about the structure of hadrons we study form factors. In the semi-leptonic decay Ω- → Ξ0W- two types of form factors arise namely the vector and axial-vector transition form factors. READ MORE

4. Fitting the pion and kaon mass and decay constant to lattice data
University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisationAbstract : We use lattice QCD data to perform a fit of the pion and kaon mass and decay constant to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in three-flavor Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT). To improve our fits, we make use of finite volume corrections at both one- and two-loop order. This turns out to provide a small but noticeable improvement of our fits. READ MORE

5. Chiral Perturbation Theory for Neutron-Antineutron Oscillations
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisationAbstract : This thesis treats neutron-antineutron oscillations in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. An effective Lagrangian, using mesons and nucleons as degrees of freedom, is constructed to capture the low-energy behavior of the effective six-quark operators, which is the set of higher dimensional operators that can induce neutron to antineutron transitions at the quark level.
