Λ (1405) as a multiquark state

In the QCD sum rule approach we predict the Λ (1405) mass by choosing the π0Σ0 multiquark interpolating field. It is found that the mass is about 1.419 GeV from Π1 (q 2) sum rule which is more reliable than Πq (q 2) sum rule, where Πq (q 2) and Π1 (q …

Sign convention of residues in QCD sum rules

We show that signs of pole residues λN,λΛ,λΣ,λΞ for 12+ octet baryons are identical in the QCD sum rule approach. To do this we compare signs of meson-baryon coupling constants gKNΛ,gKNΣ, gπΛΣ and gKΛΞ each other.

fK/fpi Ratio from QCD Sum Rules

Using the correlation function of the axial vector mesons, we present a QCD sum rule calculation for the decay constants fπ and fK. Our calculations are only weakly dependent on the SU(3)-breaking parameter for the QCD vacuum and give the ratio fK/fπ …

gπΛΣ and gKΣΞ from QCD sum rules

The coupling constants gπΛΣ and gKΣΞ are calculated in the QCD sum rule approach using the three-point function method and taking into account the SU(3) symmetry breaking effects. The pattern of SU(3) breaking appears to be different from that based …

Multiquark states and QCD sum rules

There have been arguments about hadronic molecules, which are weakly-bound states of two or more hadrons. We investigate the possibility of some candidates (f0 (980), a0 (980), f0 (1500), f0 (1710), etc.) using QCD sum rule approach and compare our …

gKNΛ and gKNΣ from QCD sum rules

g KN Λ and g KN Σ are calculated using a QCD sum rule motivated method used by Reinders, Rubinstein, and Yazaki to extract hadron couplings to Goldstone bosons. The SU (3) symmetry breaking effects are taken into account by including the …

QCD sum rules and chiral logarithms

Standard QCD sum-rule analyses of the nucleon mass give results that are inconistent with chiral perturbation theory due to an overly simple continuum ansatz on the phenomenological side of the sum rule. We show that a careful treatment of the …

Twist-4 matrix elements of the nucleon from recent DIS data at CERN and SLAC

By using the next-to-leading order analyses of the precision lepton-hadron deep inelastic measurements at CERN and SLAC, we extract model independent constraints on the nucleon matrix elements of the twist-4 operators. We also study a …
