We study the properties of fully-heavy baryons in the vacuum and the hot QCD medium, which is created in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Masses and wave functions of $\Omega_{ccc}$, $\Omega_{ccb}$, $\Omega_{bbc}$, and $\Omega_{bbb}$ up…
The decay $B \to X_s \gamma$ is studied at the Next to Leading Order in QCD in a class of models containing at least two Higgs doublets and with only one charged Higgs boson non-decoupled at low-energy. The two-loop matching condition is…
Finite density lattice QCD usually relies on extrapolations in baryon chemical potential ($\mu_B$), be it Taylor expansion, T' expansion (\cite{Borsanyi:2021sxv}) or analytical continuation. However, their range of validity is difficult to…
We determine the next-to-leading order dispersion laws for slow-moving quarks in hard-thermal-loop perturbation of high-temperature QCD where weak coupling is assumed. Real-time formalism is used. The next-to-leading order quark self-energy…
We present lattice QCD results for ratios of net-baryon number cumulants along the pseudo-critical line and compare them with STAR measurements from the RHIC BES-II program. The ratio of first and second order cumulants, $R_{12}^B$, agrees…
We report on a recent study of the ground-state octet baryon masses using the covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory with the extended-on-mass-shell renormalization scheme up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. By adjusting the…

We exhibit the existence of stable, saturated nuclear matter in the large $N_{c}$ and heavy quark mass limits of QCD. In this limit, baryons (with the same spin flavor structure) interact at leading order in $N_{c}$ via a repulsive…
We apply strong-coupling perturbation theory to the QCD lattice Hamiltonian. We begin with naive, nearest-neighbor fermions and subsequently break the doubling symmetry with next-nearest-neighbor terms. The effective Hamiltonian is that of…
In this work, we calculate the mass spectrum of doubly heavy baryons with the diquark model in terms of the QCD sum rules. The interpolating currents are composed of a heavy diquark field and a light quark field. Contributions of the…
I review recent new lattice QCD results on a few selected topics which are relevant to the heavy ion physics community. Special emphasis is put on the QCD phase diagram towards the chiral limit and at nonzero baryon density as well as the…
We study physical properties of strongly coupled massive quantum liquids from their spectral functions using the AdS/CFT correspondence. The generic model that we consider is dense, heavy fundamental matter coupled to SU(N_c) super…
Correlation functions of QCD currents with quantum numbers of nucleon and $\Delta$-isobar are considered at finite temperatures. Corrections of order $T^4$ to the correlators are calculated and interpreted in terms of thermal mass shifts…
High-order perturbative calculations for thermodynamic quantities in QCD are complicated by the physics of dynamical screening that affects the soft, long-wavelength modes of the system. Here, we provide details for the evaluation of this…
QCD sum rules are studied for the vector-isovector current at finite baryon density in the limit of large number of colors N_c. For the condensate side it is shown that in this limit the four-quark condensate factorizes also for the finite…
In this review I cover recent developments concerning the construction of non-relativistic effective theories for perturbative heavy quark-antiquark systems and heavy quark mass definitions. I then discuss next-to-next-to-leading order…

The improved light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) of the $\Lambda$ baryon are examined on the basis of the QCD conformal partial wave expansion approach. The calculations are carried out to the next-to-leading order of conformal spin…
This thesis deals with the study of baryon spectra in the context of the $1/N_c$ expansion. The standard tool to study baryon properties is the constituent quark model. The results are naturally model dependent. The $1/N_c$ expansion…
