Abstract

We use the method of QCD sum rules in the presence of an external pion field to investigate isospin symmetry breakings in pion-nucleon couplings. Possible manifestations of such isospin symmetry breaking are examined in the context of low-energy nucleon-nucleon (NN) scattering. We discuss numerical results in relation to both the existing data and other theoretical predictions.
