Abstract:
We formulate the chiral perturbation theory at the one loop level in the effective lagrangian including the ρ\rho meson as a dynamical gauge boson of a hidden local symmetry(HLS). The size of radiative correction to the phenomenological parameter aa of HLS is estimated to be about 1010\%. The complete list of O(E 4){\cal O}(E~4) terms is given and the one loop counter terms are determined explicitly in the NN flavor model. We also obtain matching conditions to the conventional chiral perturbation of Gasser and Leutwyler in the chiral limit in a renormalization scale independent manner. We find that Gasser--Leutwyler's estimates for L9,10L_{9,10} are saturated by ρ\rho and its one loop contributions without introducing non-minimal couplings of π\pi-ρ\rho system, suggesting the absence of the tree level a1a_1 meson contributions.
