The physics of charm has become one of the best laboratories exposing the limitations of the naive constituent quark model and also giving hints into a more mature description of meson spectroscopy, beyond the simple quark--antiquark…
We review the most recent results from experiments studying systems containing charmed quarks. The selection reflects the presenter's bias, and there is an emphasis on decays of open charm. We discuss precision measurements of various…
Our knowledge on the possible existence in nature of stable exotic particles depends solely upon experimental observation. Guided by this general principle and motivated by theoretical hypotheses on the existence of stable particles of…
The implications of chiral symmetry breaking and SU(3) symmetry breaking have been studied in the chiral constituent quark model ($\chi$CQM). The role of hidden strangeness component has been investigated for the scalar matrix elements of…
These proceedings present highlighted results from PHENIX shown at the Quark Matter 2017 conference.
This writeup follows the presentation at the Symposium, with emphasis on topics and ideas discussed there. It is purposefully informal, not a review of the field, and neither does it include a complete list of references. However, I hope…
In this concluding talk, the advances in the Flavour Problem studies are discussed, following the structure of the presentations in the Conference. The subjects touched are organized as follows: Baryons, K-physics, Charm and Beauty…
Strange quark matter (SQM) may be the true ground state of matter. According to this SQM hypothesis, the observed neutron stars actually should all be strange quark stars. But distinguishing between neutron stars and strange quark stars by…
The QCD phase transition has important consequences in the context of both the early universe as well as compact stars. Such transitions are being studied for high temperature and small chemical potential scenario in the laboratory. There…
The chiral quark model describes the strangeness components of the light quarks as fluctuations into strange mesons and quarks. The single strange pseudoscalar and vector meson loop fluctuations of the constituent $u$- and $d$-quarks give…
In this talk we discuss possible signatures for the existence of strange quark matter stars (strange stars).
In these proceedings, I highlight some selected results from the STAR experiment that were presented in the Quark Matter 2012 conference.
The HERMES collaboration in Phys. Rev. D89 (2014) 097101 extracted information about the strange quark density in the nucleon. One of the main results is an observation that the shape of the extracted density is very different from the…
New results on particle correlations and event-by-event fluctuations presented at Quark Matter 2004 are reviewed.
The classical quenched quark models with three constituent quarks provide a good description for the baryon spatial ground states, but fail to reproduce the spectrum of baryon excited states. More and more evidences suggest that unquenched…
These proceedings contain research results presented during the Workshops "Quark Matter in Astro- and Particle Physics" held at the University of Rostock, November 27-29, 2000 and "Dynamical Aspects of the QCD Phase Transition" held at the…
I review the current status of Lattice QCD calculations and the progress that we have made in consolidating the 'lattice QCD revolution' of four years ago. Significant results from formalisms other than the improved staggered formalism,…
We review the state of our knowledge concerning the contribution of strange quarks to various nucleon properties. In the case of the electric and magnetic form factors, the level of agreement between theory and experiment is very…
A proposal for an experiment to look at some possibly novel aspects of quantum interference is presented, along with some Engineering applications that might result.
I give a summary of Section E of the sixth edition of the Conference "Quark confinement and the hadron spectrum". Papers were presented on different subjects, from spectroscopy, including pentaquarks and hadron structure, to new physics…
