The saturation of QCD chiral sum rules of the Weinberg-type is analyzed using ALEPH and OPAL experimental data on the difference between vector and axial-vector correlators (V-A). The sum rules exhibit poor saturation up to current energies below the tau-lepton mass. A remarkable improvement is achieved by introducing integral kernels that vanish at the upper limit of integration. The method is used to determine the value of the finite remainder of the (V-A) correlator, and its first derivative, at zero momentum: $bar{Pi}(0) = - 4 bar{L}_{10} = 0.0257 pm 0.0003 ,$ and $bar{Pi}^{prime}(0) = 0.065 pm 0.007 {GeV}^{-2}$. The dimension $d=6$ and $d=8$ vacuum condensates in the Operator Product Expansion are also determined: $<{cal {O}}_{6}> = -(0.004 pm 0.001) {GeV}^6,$ and $<{cal {O}}_{8}> = -(0.001 pm 0.006) {GeV}^8.$

One of the advantages of the finite energy sum rules is the fact that every operator in the operator product expansion series can be selected individually by the use of an appropriate kernel function which removes other operator poles. This characteristic is maintained by QCD systems in the presence of external homogeneous magnetic field, providing interesting information about the magnetic evolution of QCD and hadronic parameters. In this work finite energy sum rules are applied on QCD in the light quark sector, combining axial and pseudoscalar channels in the presence of an external homogeneous magnetic field, obtaining the magnetic evolution of the light quark masses, pion mass, the pion decay constant, the gluon condensate and the continuum hadronic threshold.
The method of QCD sum rules at finite temperature is reviewed, with emphasis on recent results. These include predictions for the survival of charmonium and bottonium states, at and beyond the critical temperature for de-confinement, as later confirmed by lattice QCD simulations. Also included are determinations in the light-quark vector and axial-vector channels, allowing to analyse the Weinberg sum rules, and predict the dimuon spectrum in heavy ion collisions in the region of the rho-meson. Also in this sector, the determination of the temperature behaviour of the up-down quark mass, together with the pion decay constant, will be described. Finally, an extension of the QCD sum rule method to incorporate finite baryon chemical potential is reviewed.
The up and down quark masses are determined from an optimized QCD Finite Energy Sum Rule (FESR) involving the correlator of axial-vector divergences, to five loop order in Perturbative QCD (PQCD), and including leading non-perturbative QCD and higher order quark mass corrections. This FESR is designed to reduce considerably the systematic uncertainties arising from the (unmeasured) hadronic resonance sector, which in this framework contributes less than 3-4% to the quark mass. This is achieved by introducing an integration kernel in the form of a second degree polynomial, restricted to vanish at the peak of the two lowest lying resonances. The driving hadronic contribution is then the pion pole, with parameters well known from experiment. The determination is done in the framework of Contour Improved Perturbation Theory (CIPT), which exhibits a very good convergence, leading to a remarkably stable result in the unusually wide window $s_0 = 1.0 - 4.0 {GeV}^2$, where $s_0$ is the radius of the integration contour in the complex energy (squared) plane. The results are: $m_u(Q= 2 {GeV}) = 2.9 pm 0.2 $ MeV, $m_d(Q= 2 {GeV}) = 5.3 pm 0.4$ MeV, and $(m_u + m_d)/2 = 4.1 pm 0.2$ Mev (at a scale Q=2 GeV).
Thermal Hilbert moment QCD sum rules are used to obtain the temperature dependence of the hadronic parameters of charmonium in the vector channel, i.e. the $J$ / $psi$ resonance mass, coupling (leptonic decay constant), total width, and continuum threshold. The continuum threshold $s_0$, which signals the end of the resonance region and the onset of perturbative QCD (PQCD), behaves as in all other hadronic channels, i.e. it decreases with increasing temperature until it reaches the PQCD threshold $s_0 = 4 m_Q^2$, with $m_Q$ the charm quark mass, at $Tsimeq 1.22 T_c$. The rest of the hadronic parameters behave very differently from those of light-light and heavy-light quark systems. The $J$ / $psi$ mass is essentially constant in a wide range of temperatures, while the total width grows with temperature up to $T simeq 1.04 T_c$ beyond which it decreases sharply with increasing T. The resonance coupling is also initially constant and then begins to increase monotonically around $T simeq T_c$. This behaviour of the total width and of the leptonic decay constant provides a strong indication that the $J$ / $psi$ resonance might survive beyond the critical temperature for deconfinement.
Using the QCD sum rules we test if the charmonium-like structure Y(4260), observed in the $J/psipipi$ invariant mass spectrum, can be described with a $J/psi f_0(980)$ molecular current with $J^{PC}=1^{--}$. We consider the contributions of condensates up to dimension six and we work at leading order in $alpha_s$. We keep terms which are linear in the strange quark mass $m_s$. The mass obtained for such state is $m_{Y}=(4.67pm 0.09)$ GeV, when the vector and scalar mesons are in color singlet configurations. We conclude that the proposed current can better describe the Y(4660) state that could be interpreted as a $Psi(2S) f_0(980)$ molecular state. We also use different $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ currents to study the recently observed $Y_b(10890)$ state. Our findings indicate that the $Y_b(10890)$ can be well described by a scalar-vector tetraquark current.
