Constituent quark axial current couplings to light vector mesons in the vacuum and with a weak magnetic field

Unusual constituent quark axial current couplings to light vector mesons, $ρ$ and $ω$, are derived in the vacuum and under weak magnetic field by considering a quark-antiquark interaction mediated by a non perturbative gluon exchange. Similarly, light axial mesons are found to couple anomalously with the constituent quark vector current. These interactions are of the type of the Wess-Zumino-Witten terms, being strongly anisotropic and dependent on the vector (or axial) meson polarization. They also provide axial (vector) form factors for the vector (axial) mesons and are quite small, suppressed nearly by $1/{M^*}^2$ with respect to the vector mesons minimal coupling to the quark vector current. Some three leg meson vertices are also presented: $π-ρ-A_1$ and $V_1V_2 A$ (where $V_1,V_2$ are vector mesons and $A$ an axial meson). A vector and axial-vector mesons mixing is identified at non zero magnetic field which however can contribute only in the presence of a third particle or in a medium. Numerical results are presented for different effective gluon propagators.
