– It’s the most important mass generating mechanism for visible matter in the Universe. • Responsible for ≈98% of the proton’s mass.• Higgs mechanism is (almost) irrelevant to light-quarks.

– Just like gluons and quarks, and for the same reasons, condensates are confined within hadrons. • There are no vacuum condensates.

C.D. Roberts, Prog. Part. Nucl. Phys. 61 (2008) 50M. Bhagwat & P.C. Tandy, AIP Conf.Proc. 842 (2006) 225-227 In QCD, all “constants” of

quantum mechanics are actually strongly momentum dependent: couplings, number density, mass, etc.

So, a quark’s mass depends on its momentum.

Mass function can be calculated and is depicted here.

Continuum- and Lattice-QCD are in agreement: the vast bulk of the light-quark mass comes from a cloud of gluons, dragged along by the quark as it propagates.

Baryon Structure Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking (DCSB)

and prediction of baryon properties. DCSB is essentially a quantum field theoretical effect.

In quantum field theory Meson appears as pole in four-point quark-antiquark Green function

→ Bethe-Salpeter Equation Nucleon appears as a pole in a six-point quark Green function

→ Faddeev Equation. Poincaré covariant Faddeev equation sums all possible exchanges and

interactions that can take place between three dressed-quarks Tractable equation is based on the observation that an interaction

which describes colour-singlet mesons also generates nonpointlike quark-quark (diquark) correlations in the colour-antitriplet channel

Baryon Structure

Remarks Diquark correlations are not inserted by hand

Such correlations are a dynamical consequence of strong-coupling in QCD

The same mechanism that produces an almost massless pion from two dynamically-massive quarks; i.e., DCSB, forces a strong correlation between two quarks in colour-antitriplet channels within a baryon – an indirect consequence of Pauli-Gürsey symmetry

Diquark correlations are not pointlike– Typically, r0+ ~ rπ & r1+ ~ rρ

Effect driven primarily by electric form factor of doubly-represented u-quark

u-quark is 4-times more likely than d-quark to be involved in hard interaction

So … GEpu ≈ GEp

Singly-represented d-quark is usually sequestered inside a soft diquark correlation

So, although it also becomes parton-like more quickly as α increases, that is hidden from view

“Orthodox Vacuum”

Vacuum = “frothing sea” Hadrons = bubbles in that “sea”,

containing nothing but quarks & gluonsinteracting perturbatively, unless they’re near the bubble’s boundary, whereat they feel they’re trapped!

New Paradigm

Vacuum = hadronic fluctuations but no condensates

Hadrons = complex, interacting systemswithin which perturbative behaviour is restricted to just 2% of the interior

Regge Trajectories? Martinus Veltmann, “Facts and Mysteries in Elementary Particle Physics” (World Scientific,

Singapore, 2003): In time the Regge trajectories thus became the cradle of string theory. Nowadays the Regge trajectories have largely disappeared, not in the least because these higher spin bound states are hard to find experimentally. At the peak of the Regge fashion (around 1970) theoretical physics produced many papers containing families of Regge trajectories, with the various (hypothetically straight) lines based on one or two points only!
