Chiral Perturbation Theory 0
Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) is an effective field theory that describes the low-energy interactions of pions and other light mesons, based on the approximate chiral symmetry of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). It systematically expands the QCD Lagrangian in terms of momentum and quark masses, allowing for precise predictions in the non-perturbative regime of QCD where traditional perturbative techniques fail.
