We implement the finite-volume $N/D$ representation to study two-baryon interactions from lattice QCD data. We include the left-hand cut induced by one-pion exchange in this formalism, and study the $H$-dibaryon at the…
We present an amplitude analysis of high-energy polarized photoproduction of $\pi^-\Delta^{++}$ within a Regge exchange framework. A Regge amplitude model incorporating $\pi$, $\rho$, $b_1$, and $a_2$ trajectory exchanges is fit…
The observation of hybrid mesons in photoproduction experiments can provide essential insight into the inner workings of quantum chromodynamics in the strong coupling regime. In particular, the study of final $\eta^{(\prime)}\pi$ states is…
Mathematical ambiguities in partial-wave analysis present a significant challenge to the extraction of resonance properties in hadronic reactions. Recent work has shown that while linear photon polarization can resolve continuous…
Both positive and negative charge conjugation glueball spectra are computed with a constituent gluon approach. We first compute the spectrum of the Hamiltionian describing two-gluon bound states having $C=+$, before tackling the three-gluon…
We report ring resonators on a silicon germanium on silicon platform operating in the mid-infrared wavelength range around 3.5 - 4.6 {\mu}m with quality factors reaching up to one million. Advances in fabrication technology enable us to…
The construction of general amplitudes satisfying symmetries and $S$-matrix constraints has been the primary tool in studying the spectrum of hadrons for over half a century. In this work, we present a new parameterization, which can…
The Reggeized pion is expected to provide the main contribution to the forward cross section in light meson photoproduction reactions with charge exchange at high energies. We discuss the Reggeization of pion exchange in charged pion…
Forward photoproduction of $\pi^+\pi^-$ pairs with invariant mass of the order of $m_\rho\sim 770$ MeV is traditionally understood to be produced via Pomeron exchange. Based on a detailed analysis of the CLAS photoproduction data, it is…
A theoretical model of two-pion photoproduction is presented. The model encodes the prominent $\rho(770)$ resonance and the expected leading background contribution coming from the Deck mechanism. To validate the model, angular moments are…
A calculation of the angular moments of two-pion photoproduction is presented. The underlying theoretical model encodes the prominent $\rho(770)$ resonance and the expected leading background contribution coming from the Deck mechanism. The…
We outline the physics opportunities provided by the Electron Ion Collider (EIC). These include the study of the parton structure of the nucleon and nuclei, the onset of gluon saturation, the production of jets and heavy flavor, hadron…
The last two decades have witnessed the discovery of a myriad of new and unexpected hadrons. The future holds more surprises for us, thanks to new-generation experiments. Understanding the signals and determining the properties of the…
Recent decades have seen a resurge of interest in hadron spectroscopy, driven by new, high-luminosity experiments which have identified many new hadrons, both expected and unexpected. The large number of unexpected hadrons suggest…
We highlight the need for the development of comprehensive amplitude analysis methods to further our understanding of hadron spectroscopy. Reaction amplitudes constrained by first principles of $S$-matrix theory and by QCD phenomenology are…
We investigate the properties of the hidden charm pentaquark-like resonances first observed by LHCb in 2015, by measuring the polarization transfer KLL between the incident photon and the outgoing proton in the exclusive photoproduction of…
The LHCb has reported the observation of a resonancelike structure, the Pc(4450), in the J/psi p invariant masses. In our work, we discuss the feasibility of detecting this structure in J/psi photoproduction, e.g. in the measurements that…
It appears that there are two resonances with $J^P= 1/2^-$ quantum numbers in the energy region near the $\Lambda(1405)$ hyperon. The nature of these states is a topic of current debate. To provide further insight we use Regge phenomenology…
The Joint Physics Analysis Center is a collaboration between theorists and experimentalists working in hadronic physics. In order to facilitate the exchange of information between the different actors in hadron spectroscopy, we created an…
The collimation of energy inside medium-modified jets is investigated in the leading logarithmic approximation of QCD. The Dokshitzer-Gribov-Lipatov-Altarelli-Parisi (DGLAP) evolution equations are slightly modified by introducing splitting…
