We present a calculation of the $eta$-$eta$ mixing in the framework of large-$N_c$ chiral perturbation theory. A general expression for the $eta$-$eta$ mixing at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) is derived, including higher-derivative terms up to fourth order in the four momentum, kinetic and mass terms. In addition, the axial-vector decay constants of the $eta$-$eta$ system are determined at NNLO. The numerical analysis of the results is performed successively at LO, NLO, and NNLO. We investigate the influence of one-loop corrections, OZI-rule-violating parameters, and $mathcal{O}(N_c p^6)$ contact terms.

Baryon magnetic moments are computed in baryon chiral perturbation theory in the large-$N_c$ limit at one-loop order, where $N_c$ is the number of color charges. Orders $mathcal{O}(m_q^{1/2})$ and $mathcal{O}(m_q ln m_q)$ corrections are both evaluated including all the operator structures that participate at the physical value $N_c=3$. The complete expressions for octet and decuplet baryon magnetic moments in addition to decuplet-octet baryon transition moments are thus compared to their available counterparts obtained in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory for degenerate intermediate baryons in the loops. Theoretical expressions fully agree at the physical values $N_c=3$ and $N_f=3$ flavors of light quarks. Some numerical evaluations are produced via a least-squares fit to explore the free parameters in the analysis. Results point out the necessity of incorporating the effects of non-degenerate intermediate baryons in the loops for a consistent determination of these free parameters.
We have revisited glueball mixing with the pseudoscalar mesons in the MIT bag model scheme. The calculation has been performed in the spherical cavity approximation to the bag using two different fermion propagators, the cavity and the free propagators. We obtain a very small probability of mixing for the eta at the level of $0.04-0.1% and a bigger for the eta at the level of 4-12%. Our results differ from previous calculations in the same scheme but seem to agree with the experimental analysis. We discuss the origin of our difference which stems from the treatment of our time integrations.
In this paper, we consider two-flavor QCD at zero temperature and finite isospin chemical potential ($mu_I$) using a model-independent analysis within chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order. We calculate the effective potential, the chiral condensate and the pion condensate in the pion-condensed phase at both zero and nonzero pionic source. We compare our finite pionic source results for the chiral condensate and the pion condensate with recent (2+1)-flavor lattice QCD results and find that they are in excellent agreement.
The $eta to pi^+ pi^- pi^0 gamma$ decay is discussed in the general context of Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT), assuming that the low--energy constants (counter--terms) are saturated by vector-meson resonances. The $eta to pi^+ pi^- pi^0 gamma$ amplitude can be separated in two distinct pieces: the inner bremsstrahlung, $A^{(IB)}$, and the structure dependent (or direct emission), $A^{(SD)}$, amplitudes. The former -- which essentially contains the same physics as $A(eta to pi^+ pi^- pi^0)$ -- is found to dominate over the second one -- which looks more interesting from the ChPT point of view.
In this work, we calculate the branching ratios for the $eta(eta)rightarrowbar{ell}ell$ decays, where $ell = e,mu$. These processes have tiny rates in the standard model due to spin flip, loop, and electromagnetic suppression, for what they could be sensitive to New Physics effects. In order to provide a reliable input for the Standard Model, we exploit the general analytical properties of the amplitude. For that purpose, we invoke the machinery of Canterbury approximants, which provides a systematic description of the underlying hadronic physics in a data-driven fashion. Given the current experimental discrepancies, we discuss in detail the role of the resonant region and comment on the reliability of $chi$PT calculations. Finally, we discuss the kind of new physics which we think would be relevant to account for them.
