Chiral Symmetry
"... Abstract. Broken chiral symmetry has become the basis for a unified treatment of hadronic interactions at low energies. After reviewing mechanisms for spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking, I outline the construction of the low-energy effective field theory of the Standard Model called chiral perturb ..."

The Beginning of Chiral Symmetry
, 2008
"... For readers interested in the history of chiral symmetry we present the translation of two papers from 1955 and 1959 from German to English, in which chiral symmetry properties for weak and strong interactions have been postulated and discussed. 1 Chiral symmetry is one of the fundamental properties ..."

CONFINEMENT, CHIRAL SYMMETRY, AND THE LATTICE
, 2011
"... Two crucial properties of QCD, confinement and chiral symmetry breaking, cannot be understood within the context of conventional Feynman perturbation theory. Non-perturbative phenomena enter the theory in a fundamental way at both the classical and quantum levels. Over the years a coherent qualitati ..."

DILEPTON PRODUCTION AND CHIRAL SYMMETRY
, 2000
"... We discuss how dilepton production is related to chiral symmetry and its restoration. We then analyse presently available data by the CERES collaboration in this context. We find that the present data do not support any conclusions concerning the restoration of chiral symmetry. We finally provide a ..."

"... This article is a pedagogical exploration of the nonperturbative issues entwining lattice gauge theory, anomalies, and chiral symmetry. After briefly reviewing the importance of chiral symmetry in particle physics, the author discusses how anomalies complicate lattice formulations. Considerable i ..."

CHIRAL SYMMETRY IN MATTER ∗
, 2008
"... Soft-pion theorems are used to show how chiral symmetry constrains the contributions of low-momentum pions to the quark condensate, the pion decay constant and hadron masses, all of which have been proposed as signals of partial restoration of chiral symmetry in matter. These have contributions of o ..."

Chiral Symmetry and Quark Confinement
"... In the physical vacuum of QCD, the energy density of lightquark fields strongly coupled to slowly varying gluon fields can be negative, and so a condensate of pairs of quarks and antiquarks of nearly opposite momenta forms which breaks chiral symmetry, confines quarks, and makes gluons massive. Dece ..."
