Spectrum of QCD and chiral Lagrangians of the strong and weak interactions
Abstract
Chiral Lagrangians contain in their coefficients information concerning the underlying fundamental theory. We show that to a large measure this structure is determined by a duality with the low-mass spectrum of the theory. This is tested in some model theories and then applied to QCD. In the real world, only the vector mesons are light enough to pass our criteria for being low mass, and in practice they do seem to dominate the structure of the phenomenological Lagrangians. This raises the possibility of a fusion between vector-dominance ideas and rigorous chiral Lagrangian methods.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
