Very low energy matching of effective meson theories with QCD
Abstract
Description
A simple matching procedure is proposed to extract constraints on effective meson theories. In this way, a QCD prediction for the pion decay constant is found, F(pi)=2 m(pi)/pi, i.e. approximately 90MeV. The same procedure also determines other mesonic observables, like the decay width of the sigma meson to two photons. Finally, some information which can be gained about the hadronic light-by-light contributions to the muon anomalous moment are briefly commented.
