3 Confinement  Gluon and Quark Confinement –Empirical Fact: No coloured states have yet been observed to reach a detector Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 3 X 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56  However –There is no agreed, theoretical definition of light-quark confinement –Static-quark confinement is irrelevant to real-world QCD There are no long-lived, very-massive quarks But light-quarks are ubiquitous  Flux tubes, linear potentials and string tensions play no role in relativistic quantum field theory with light degrees of freedom.

4 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! 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 4 Phys.Rev.

5 Confinement  QFT Paradigm: Confinement is expressed through a dramatic change in the analytic structure of propagators for coloured particles & can almost be read from a plot of a states’ dressed-propagator –Gribov (1978); Munczek (1983); Stingl (1984); Cahill (1989); Roberts, Williams & Krein (1992); Tandy (1994); … Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 5 complex-P 2 o Real-axis mass-pole splits, moving into pair(s) of complex conjugate poles or branch points, or more complicated nonanalyticities … o Spectral density no longer positive semidefinite & hence state cannot exist in observable spectrum Normal particle Confined particle 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 timelike axis: P 2 <0

7 Dynamical Chiral Symmetry Breaking  Whilst confinement is contentious …  DCSB is a fact in QCD –It is the most important mass generating mechanism for visible matter in the Universe. Responsible for approximately 98% of the proton’s mass. Higgs mechanism is ( almost ) irrelevant to light- quarks.

8 Frontiers of Nuclear Science: Theoretical Advances In QCD a quark's effective mass depends on its momentum. The function describing this can be calculated and is depicted here. Numerical simulations of lattice QCD (data, at two different bare masses) have confirmed model predictions (solid curves) that the vast bulk of the constituent mass of a light quark comes from a cloud of gluons that are dragged along by the quark as it propagates. In this way, a quark that appears to be absolutely massless at high energies (m =0, red curve) acquires a large constituent mass at low energies.

14 Charting the interaction between light-quarks  Confinement can be related to the analytic properties of QCD's Schwinger functions.  Question of light-quark confinement is thereby translated into the challenge of charting the infrared behavior of QCD's universal β-function  Through QCD's DSEs, the pointwise behaviour of the β-function determines the pattern of chiral symmetry breaking.  DSEs connect β-function to experimental observables. Hence, comparison between computations and observations of o Hadron spectrum, Elastic & transition form factors, Parton distribution fns can be used to chart β-function’s long-range behaviour. Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 14 This is a well-posed problem whose solution is an elemental goal of modern hadron physics. The answer provides QCD’s running coupling. 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Process-independent α S (Q 2 ) → unified description of observables

15  Goldstone’s theorem has a pointwise expression in QCD; Namely, in the chiral limit the wave-function for the two- body bound-state Goldstone mode is intimately connected with, and almost completely specified by, the fully-dressed one-body propagator of its characteristic constituent The one-body momentum is equated with the relative momentum of the two-body system Dichotomy of the pion Goldstone mode and bound-state 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 15

17 Empirical status of the Pion’s valence-quark distributions  Owing to absence of pion targets, the pion’s valence-quark distribution functions are measured via the Drell-Yan process: π p → μ + μ − X  Three experiments: CERN (1983 & 1985) and FNAL (1989). No more recent experiments because theory couldn’t even explain these!  Problem Conway et al. Phys. Rev. D 39, 92 (1989)Phys. Rev. D 39, 92 (1989) Wijesooriya et al. Phys.Rev.

18 Models of the Pion’s valence-quark distributions  (1−x) β with β=0 (i.e., a constant – any fraction is equally probable! ) –AdS/QCD models using light-front holography –Nambu–Jona-Lasinio models, when a translationally invariant regularization is used  (1−x) β with β=1 –Nambu–Jona-Lasinio NJL models with a hard cutoff –Duality arguments produced by some theorists  (1−x) β with 0<β<2 – Relativistic constituent-quark models, with power-law depending on the form of model wave function  (1−x) β with 1<β<2 –Instanton-based models, all of which have incorrect large-k 2 behaviour 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 18 Pion

20 DSE prediction of the Pion’s valence-quark distributions  Consider a theory in which quarks scatter via a vector-boson exchange interaction whose k 2 >>m G 2 behaviour is (1/k 2 ) β,  Then at a resolving scale Q 0 u π (x;Q 0 ) ~ (1-x) 2β namely, the large-x behaviour of the quark distribution function is a direct measure of the momentum-dependence of the underlying interaction.  In QCD, β=1 and hence QCD u π (x;Q 0 ) ~ (1-x) 2 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 20 Pion

21  Consider a theory in which quarks scatter via a vector-boson exchange interaction whose k 2 >m G 2 behaviour is (1/k 2 ) β,  Then at a resolving scale Q 0 u π (x;Q 0 ) ~ (1-x) 2β namely, the large-x behaviour of the quark distribution function is a direct measure of the momentum-dependence of the underlying interaction.  In QCD, β=1 and hence QCD u π (x;Q 0 ) ~ (1-x) 2 DSE prediciton of the Pion’s valence-quark distributions 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 21 Pion

22 “Model Scale”  At what scale Q 0 should the prediction be valid?  Hitherto, PDF analyses within models have used the resolving scale Q 0 as a parameter, to be chosen by requiring agreement between the model and low- moments of the PDF that are determined empirically. 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 22 Pion  Modern DSE studies have exposed a natural value for the model scale; viz., the gluon mass Q 0 ≈ m G ≈ 0.6 GeV ≈ 1/0.33 fm which is the location of the inflexion point in the chiral-limit dressed-quark mass function Essentially nonperturbative domain

24 Reanalysis of q v π (x)  After first DSE computation, the “Conway et al.” data were reanalysed, this time at next-to-leading-order ( Wijesooriya et al. Phys.Rev. C 72 (2005) 065203 )Phys.Rev. C 72 (2005) 065203  The new analysis produced a much larger exponent than initially obtained; viz., β=1.87, but now it disagreed equally with model results and the DSE prediction NB. Within pQCD, one can readily understand why adding a higher-order correction leads to a suppression of q v π (x) at large-x. 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 24 Hecht, Roberts, Schmidt Phys.Rev. C 63 (2001) 025213  New experiments were proposed … for accelerators that do not yet exist but the situation remained otherwise unchanged  Until the publication of Distribution Functions of the Nucleon and Pion in the Valence Region, Roy J. Holt and Craig D. Roberts, arXiv:1002.4666 [nucl-th], Rev. Mod. Phys. 82 (2010) pp. 2991-3044 arXiv:1002.4666 [nucl-th]Rev. Mod. Phys. 82 (2010) pp. 2991-3044

25 Reanalysis of q v π (x)  This article emphasised and explained the importance of the persistent discrepancy between the DSE result and experiment as a challenge to QCD  It prompted another reanalysis of the data, which accounted for a long-overlooked effect: viz., “soft-gluon resummation,” –Compared to previous analyses, we include next-to-leading- logarithmic threshold resummation effects in the calculation of the Drell-Yan cross section. As a result of these, we find a considerably softer valence distribution at high momentum fractions x than obtained in previous next-to-leading-order analyses, in line with expectations based on perturbative-QCD counting rules or Dyson- Schwinger equations. 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 25 Distribution Functions of the Nucleon and Pion in the Valence Region, Roy J.

27 Current status of q v π (x)  Data after inclusion of soft-gluon resummation  DSE prediction and modern representation of the data are indistinguishable on the valence-quark domain  Emphasises the value of using a single internally- consistent, well- constrained framework to correlate and unify the description of hadron observables 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 27 Trang, Bashir, Roberts & Tandy, “Pion and kaon valence- quark parton distribution functions,” arXiv:1102.2448 [nucl-th], Phys.

30 Pion’s valence-quark Distribution Amplitude  Using simple parametrisations of solutions to the gap and Bethe-Salpeter equations, rapid and semiquantitatively reliable estimates can be made for φ π (x) –(1/k 2 ) ν=0 –(1/k 2 ) ν =½ –(1/k 2 ) ν =1  Again, unambiguous and direct mapping between behaviour of interaction and behaviour of distribution amplitude 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 30 Leading pQCD φ π (x)=6 x (1-x)

35 Unification of Meson & Baryon Properties  Correlate the properties of meson and baryon ground- and excited-states within a single, symmetry-preserving framework  Symmetry-preserving means: Poincaré-covariant Guarantee Ward-Takahashi identities Express accurately the pattern by which symmetries are broken Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 35 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56

36 Faddeev Equation  Linear, Homogeneous Matrix equation  Yields wave function (Poincaré Covariant Faddeev Amplitude) that describes quark-diquark relative motion within the nucleon  Scalar and Axial-Vector Diquarks...  Both have “correct” parity and “right” masses  In Nucleon’s Rest Frame Amplitude has s−, p− & d−wave correlations Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 36 diquark quark quark exchange ensures Pauli statistics composed of strongly- dressed quarks bound by dressed-gluons 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 R.T. Cahill et al., Austral. J. Phys. 42 (1989) 129-145

37 Contact Interaction 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 37  Symmetry-preserving treatment of vector×vector contact interaction is useful tool for the study of phenomena characterised by probe momenta less-than the dressed-quark mass, M. Because: For experimental observables determined by probe momenta Q 2 <M 2, contact interaction results are not realistically distinguishable from those produced by the most sophisticated renormalisation-group-improved kernels.  Symmetry-preserving regularisation of the contact interaction serves as a useful surrogate, opening domains which analyses using interactions that more closely resemble those of QCD are as yet unable to enter.  They’re critical in attempts to use data as tool for charting nature of the quark-quark interaction at long-range; i.e., identifying signals of the running of couplings and masses in QCD.

43 Spectrum of Diquarks with Strangeness  Solve Bethe-Salpeter equations for mesons and diquarks 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 43 arXiv:1204.2553 [nucl-th], arXiv:1204.2553 [nucl-th], Spectrum of hadrons with strangeness, Chen Chen, L. Chang, C.D. Roberts, Shaolong Wan and D.J. Wilson Level ordering of diquark correlations is same as that for mesons. In all diquark channels, except scalar, mass of diquark’s partner meson is a fair guide to the diquark’s mass: o Meson mass bounds the diquark’s mass from below; o Splitting always less than 0.13GeV and decreases with increasing meson mass Scalar channel “special” owing to DCSB

44 Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes  Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes are couplings in Faddeev Equation  Magnitudes for diquarks follow precisely the meson pattern 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 44 arXiv:1204.2553 [nucl-th], arXiv:1204.2553 [nucl-th], Spectrum of hadrons with strangeness, Chen Chen, L.

Wilson (1/2)+ (1/2)-  This level ordering has long been a problem in CQMs with linear or HO confinement potentials  Correct ordering owes to DCSB  Positive parity diquarks have Faddeev equation couplings 25- times greater than negative parity diquarks  Explains why approaches within which DCSB cannot be realised (CQMs) or simulations whose parameters suppress DCSB will both have difficulty reproducing experimental ordering

56  Confinement with light-quarks is not connected in any known way with a linear potential; not with a potential of any kind.  Confinement with light-quarks is associated with a dramatic change in the infrared structure of the parton propagators.  Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking, the origin of 98% of visible matter in universe, is manifested unambiguously and fundamentally in an equivalence between the one- and two- body problem in QCD  Working together to chart the behaviour of the running masses in QCD, experiment and theory can potentially answer the questions of confinement and dynamical chiral symmetry breaking; a task that currently each alone find hopeless. 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 56 QCD is the most interesting part of the standard model - Nature’s only example of an essentially nonperturbative fundamental theory,

58 Universal Misapprehensions  Since 1979, DCSB has commonly been associated literally with a spacetime- independent mass-dimension-three “vacuum condensate.”  Under this assumption, “condensates” couple directly to gravity in general relativity and make an enormous contribution to the cosmological constant  Experimentally, the answer is Ω cosm. const. = 0.76  This mismatch is a bit of a problem. 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 58

60 “Orthodox Vacuum”  Vacuum = “frothing sea”  Hadrons = bubbles in that “sea”, containing nothing but quarks & gluons interacting perturbatively, unless they’re near the bubble’s boundary, whereat they feel they’re trapped! 15.08.12: USC Summer Academy - 56 Craig Roberts: N & N* Structure in Continuum Strong QCD 60 u u u d u u d d u
