Chiral symmetry breaking and the pion wave function

Abstract: We consider here chiral symmetry breaking through nontrivial vacuum structure with quark antiquark condensates. We then relate the condensate function to the wave function of pion as a Goldstone mode. This simultaneously yields the pion also as a quark antiquark bound state as a localised zero mode in vacuum. We illustrate the above with Nambu Jona-Lasinio model to calculate different pionic properties in terms of the vacuum structure for breaking of exact or approximate chiral symmetry, as well as the condens… Show more

“…The four fermi coupling is also renormalized as in Eq. (19), by subtracting out the vacuum contribution and relating it to the s-wave scattering length as in Ref.s [10,24,31]. This makes all the quantities well defined and finite.…”

“…In the following we shall discuss which phase is thermodynamically favorable at what density as the chemical potential difference is varied for a given coupling and a given average density. For numerical calculations, it is convenient to write the Eq.s (19)(20)(21)(22) in terms of dimensionless quantities. Thus we make the substitutions |k| = k f x, q = k f y, ∆ = ǫ f z,ν = ǫ f ν, δ ν = ǫ f δ, where, k f is the average fermi momentum and ǫ f is the corresponding fermi energy.…”

“…We have seen earlier that chiral symmetry breaking takes place with the formation of quark antiquark condensates in perturbative vacuum [9,10,[18][19][20][21][22]. We consider the quark field operator expansion in momentum space given as [9,10,18,19] …”
