Partial wave analysis for the in-hadron condensate

Abstract

In-hadron condensates, defined as the scalar form factors at zero-momentum transfer, are investigated for flavor-symmetric mesons in pseudoscalar and vector channels under the rainbow-ladder truncation within the Dyson-Schwinger equations framework. We confirm the efficiency of the in-hadron condensates in describing the effects of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking from both global and structural perspectives by comparing the meson masses, the dimensionless in-hadron condensates, and the partial wave decompositions of in-hadron condensates as functions of current-quark mass. From partial wave analysis, we infer $\pi(1300)$ is a radial excitation dominated by $s$ waves and $\rho(1450)$ is not a $p$ wave-dominated excitation. This work provides a new insight into the studies of hadron properties with partial wave analysis for the in-hadron condensates.
