Chiral Invariance And Electroweak Interactions Of Pions And Kaons, Br Holstein

Barry R Holstein

Electroweak interactions of pions and kaons are studied in the context of chiral perturbation theory. We demonstrate that the effective Lagrangian framework allows a consistent and predictive picture of such processes as well as a succinct way in which to represent the many previous studies of these reactions which have been performed using chiral models.
