Although some of such terms can be absorbed in the renormalization procedure, one such contribution is left in the expression for the pion decay constant. This arbitrariness is eliminated by chiral symmetry.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "2005-08-10T21:39:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.30.Rd", "12.39.Fe", "13.20.Cz" ], "keywords": [ "linear sigma model", "light quarks", "ambiguities", "pion decay constant", "renormalization procedure" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1142/S021773230601869X", "journal": "Modern Physics Letters A", "year": 2006, "volume": 21, "number": 4, "pages": 339 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 679055, "adsabs": "2006MPLA...21..339D" } } }
