Prof. Francesco Giacosa (Jan Kochanowski University)

Description

In this talk, I recall the key moments, fundamental steps, and main considerations that led to the construction of the extended Linear Sigma Model. I compare the initial plans for this chiral model of QCD with what has been achieved, and highlight the main contributions to the development of the approach. Selected results for hadrons, both in vacuum and in medium, will also be presented.
