abstract

We review the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) approach to the dynamical breaking of chiral symmetry in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). The subjects treated in Part I include the vacuum structure of QCD, mass spectra and coupling constants of hadrons, flavor mixing in mesons, the violation of the OZI rule in baryons, and the validity of the chiral perturbation in QCD. A subtle interplay between the axial anomaly and the current-quark masses is shown to play important roles, and a realistic evaluation of the strangeness and heavy quark contents of hadrons is given. In Part II, the NJL model is applied to the system at finite temperature ($T$) and density ($\rho$) relevant to the early universe, interior of the neutron stars and the ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. The subjects treated here include the quark condensates in the medium, meson properties at finite $T$ ($\rho$) and their experimental implications. A special attention is paid to fluctuation phenomena near the critical temperature. (to be published in Physics Reports)

Symmetry Energy Expansion with Strange Dense Matter

nucl-th · 2025-04-26 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

A redefinition of the symmetry energy expansion that incorporates finite strangeness consistent with SU(3) flavor symmetry and remains valid beyond typical neutron-star central densities.

The color force acting on a quark in the pion and nucleon

hep-ph · 2025-11-12 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

In the instanton liquid model, the color force on a struck quark in the pion and nucleon is derived from twist-3 operators, related to gravitational and transversity form factors, and mapped in the transverse plane with nucleon results matching recent lattice data.

FRG analysis of dense two-color QCD within the linear sigma model

hep-ph · 2026-06-30 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

FRG analysis in the linear sigma model for QC2D shows enhanced meson U(1)_A anomaly couplings with increasing mu_q but suppressed topological susceptibility following chiral restoration at high density or temperature.

Spectral function for pions in magnetic field

hep-ph · 2026-01-30 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

Pion spectral functions in magnetic fields develop multi-peak structures for neutral pions from Landau levels and Landau cuts for charged pions, with decay widths narrowing at higher temperatures indicating increased stability.
