We investigate dilepton production in transport-based approaches and show that the baryon couplings of the $\rho$ meson represent the most important ingredient for understanding the measured dilepton spectra. At low energies (of a few GeV),…
We discuss the latest theoretical results on direct photon and dilepton production from relativistic heavy-ion collisions. While the dilepton spectra at low invariant mass show in-medium effects like a collisional broadening of the vector…
The long distance vector-meson-dominance (VMD) effects on the weak radiative decays $\bb\to\rho\gamma$ and $\bb^0\to D^{*0}\gamma$ are studied. For $\bb\to\rho\gamma$ decays, the VMD contribution is $(10-20)\%$ of the short-distance penguin…

We study the photoproduction of vector mesons off proton and off nuclear targets. We work within the colour dipole model in an approach that includes subnucleon degrees of freedom, so-called hot spots, whose positions in the…
This letter proposes an anti-disturbance control scheme for rotor drones to counteract voltage drop (VD) disturbance caused by voltage drop of the battery, which is a common case for long-time flight or aggressive maneuvers. Firstly, the…
In this paper, a theoretical calculation of thermal di-lepton production rate (DPR) is reported from a hot and dense, unbounded rotating quark gluon plasma in the presence of very strong uniform background magnetic field typically generated…
The measured forward slope in elastic and inelastic leptoproduction of vector mesons differ by a substantial amount. In an attempt to describe this phenomenon we construct a two radii model for the target proton, and estimate the effective…
The dominant mechanism for the central exclusive production of vector meson in $p p$ and $p \bar p$ collisions is the $\gamma$ $I P$ fusion. As a building block for the pp reaction, the amplitude for photoproduction $ \gamma p \to V p $ is…
We present the color dipole phenomenology of diffractive photo- and electroproduction $\gamma^{*} N\to V(V') N$ of vector mesons ($V(1S) = \phi^0, \omega^0, \rho^0, J/\Psi, \Upsilon$) and their radial excitations ($V'(2S) = \phi', \omega',…
