Summary
On the basis of the quark-gluon field theory we discuss the dynamical manifestations of gluons in hadron physics. Especially we concentrate on the Zweig rule for meson decays and the decays of the Ψ-resonances. Depending on the various possibilities for the spectrum of the glue mesons, we describe both the glue annihilation and the mixing mechanism for the Zweig-rule-violating meson decays. Furthermore we discuss the break-down of PCAC for the pseudoscalar analogue of the Ψ-meson and the importance of the glue mixing term for the mass spectrum of the pseudoscalar mesons.
Riassunto
Sulla base della teoria dei campi con quark-gluoni si discutono le manifestazioni dinamiche dei gluoni nella fisica degli adroni. Ci si concentra specialmente sulla regola di Zweig per i decadimenti dei mesoni ed i decadimenti delle risonanze Ψ. A seconda delle varie possibilità per lo spettro dei mesoni colla, si descrive sia l’annichilazione della colla sia il meccanismo di mescolanza per i decadimenti mesonici che violano la regola di Zweig. Inoltre si discutono la rottura di PCAC per l’analogo pseudoscalare del mesone Ψ e l’importanza del termine di mescolanza della colla per lo spettro di massa dei mesoni pseudoscalari.
