In the framework of nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization, we compute both the polarized and the unpolarized decay widths for the processes $\eta_b(\chi_{bJ})\to J/\psi J/\psi$, accurate up to next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) in…

We compute the total cross section of a heavy quarkonium on a hadron target in leading twist QCD, including target mass corrections. Our method relies on the analytical continuation of the operator product expansion of the scattering…
It is conventionally assumed that the negative mass squared term in the linear sigma model version of the pion Lagrangian is $M^2 \sim \Lambda_{\rm QCD}^2$ in powers of $N_c$. We consider the case where $M^2 \sim \Lambda^2_{\rm QCD}/N_c$ so…

In earlier publications we have analyzed the strong and radiative decays of heavy hadrons in a formalism which incorporates both heavy-quark and chiral symmetries. In particular, we have derived a heavy-hadron chiral Lagrangian whose…
We use the recently proposed supersymmetric expansion algorithm (SEA) to obtain a complete analytical solution to the Schr\"{o}dinger equation with the Cornell potential. We find that the energy levels $E_{nl}(\lambda)$ depend on $n^{2}$…
We compute the decay rates for the processes $Z\to V+\gamma$, where $Z$ is the $Z$ boson, $\gamma$ is the photon, and $V$ is one of the vector quarkonia $J/\psi$ or $\Upsilon(nS)$, with $n=1$, $2$, or $3$. Our computations include…
