• Chiral perturbation theory — (ChPT) is an effective field theory constructed with a Lagrangian consistent with the (approximate) chiral symmetry of quantum chromodynamics (QCD), as well as the other symmetries of parity and charge conjugation. ChPT is a theory which allows… …   Wikipedia

• Chiral anomaly — A chiral anomaly is the anomalous nonconservation of a chiral current. In some theories of fermions with chiral symmetry, the quantization may lead to the breaking of this (global) chiral symmetry. In that case, the charge associated with the… …   Wikipedia

• Chiral gauge theory — In quantum field theory, a chiral gauge theory is a quantum field theory with charged chiral (i.e. Weyl) fermions. For instance, the Standard Model is a chiral gauge theory. For topological reasons, chiral charged fermions cannot be given a mass… …   Wikipedia

• Chiral model — In nuclear physics, the chiral model is a phenomenological model describing mesons in the chiral limit where the masses of the quarks go to zero (without mentioning quarks at all). It s a nonlinear sigma model with the principal homogeneous space …   Wikipedia

• Chiral symmetry — In quantum field theory, chiral symmetry is a possible symmetry of the Lagrangian under which the left handed and right handed parts of Dirac fields transform independently. The chiral symmetry transformation can be divided into a component that… …   Wikipedia
