Comment on "Remark on the external-field method in QCD sum rules"

It is proved, that suggested by Jin modified formalism in the external-field method in QCD sum rules exactly coincides with the formalism used before. Therefore, unlike the claims of ref.1, this formalism cannot improve the predictability and reliability of external-field sum rule calculations in comparison with those, done by the standard approach.

Calculation of the pentaquark width by QCD sum rule

The pentaquark width is calculated in QCD sum rules. Result for $\Gamma_{\Theta}$ show, that $\Gamma_{\Theta}$ can vary in the region less than 1$MeV$. The main conclusion is, that if pentaquark is genuine states then sum rules really predict the narrow width of pentaquark $\theta^+$, and the suppression of the width is both parametrical and numerical.Comment: 8 Ppages, 3 figures,the numerical error was corrected, two figures are modified. In the limit of errors the result did not change significantl

Spontaneous violation of chiral symmetry in QCD vacuum is the origin of baryon masses and determines baryon magnetic moments and their other static properties

A short review is presented of the spontaneous violation of chiral symmetry in QCD vacuum. It is demonstrated, that this phenomenon is the origin of baryon masses in QCD. The value of nucleon mass is calculated as well as the masses of hyperons and some baryonic resonances and expressed mainly through the values of quark condensates -- $, ~q=u,d,s$ -- the vacuum expectation values (v.e.v.) of quark field. The concept of vacuum expectation values induced by external fields is introduced. It is demonstrated that such v.e.v. induced by static electromagnetic field results in quark condensate magnetic susceptibility, which plays the main role in determination of baryon magnetic moments. The magnetic moments of proton, neutron and hyperons are calculated. The results of calculation of baryon octet $\beta$-decay constants are also presented.Comment: 13 pades, 5 figures.

Quark distributions in QCD sum rules: unexpected features and paradoxes

Some very unusual features of the hadron structure functions, obtained in the generalized QCD sum rules, like the surprisingly strong difference between longitudinally and transversally polarized $\rho$ mesons structure functions and the strong suppression of the gluon sea in longitudinally polarized $\rho$ mesons are discussed. Also the problem of exact zero contribution of gluon condensates to pion and longitudinally polarized $\rho$ meson quark distributions is discussed.Comment: 9 pages, 5 fig

Pentaquark decay is suppressed by chirality conservation

It is shown, that if the pentaquark $\Theta^+ = uudd\bar{s}$ baryon can be represented by the local quark current $\eta_{\Theta}$, its decay $\Theta^+ \to n K^+ (p K^0)$ is forbidden in the limit of chirality conservation. The $\Theta^+$decay width $\Gamma$ is proportional to $\alpha^2_s < 0 | \bar{q} q | 0 >^2$, where $$, $q = u,d,s$ is quark condensate, and, therefore, is strongly suppressed. Also the polarization operator of the pentaquark current with isospin 1 is calculated using the operator product expansion and estimation for it mass is obtained .Comment: 4 pages, 1 fig, typos correcte

Estimates of md−mum_d - m_u and ⟨dˉd⟩−⟨uˉu⟩\langle\bar{d}d\rangle - \langle\bar{u}u\rangle from QCD sum rules for DD and D∗D^{\ast} isospin mass differences

The recent experimental data on $D^{+}-D^{0}$ and $D^{\ast\, +}-D^{\ast\,0}$ mass differences are used as inputs in the QCD sum rules to obtain new estimates on the mass difference of light quarks and on the difference of their condensates: $m_d -m_u =3\pm 1\, MeV$, $\langle\bar{d}d\rangle -\langle\bar{u}u\rangle = -(2.5\pm 1)\cdot 10^{-3}\langle\bar{u}u\rangle$ (at a standard normalization point, $\mu = 0.5\, GeV$).Comment: 6 pages, TPI-MINN-92/69-T and BUTP-93/
