As a test of the conjectured QCD/supergravity duality, we consider mass gaps in the supergravity construction of QCD_2. We find a mass gap in the dual field theory both when using non-rotating and rotating black D2-branes as backgrounds in…
The monopole order parameter of QCD is computed in terms of gauge invariant field strength correlators. Both quantities are partially known from numerical simulations on the lattice. A new insight results on the structure of the confining…
QED vacuum can be polarized and magnetized by an external electromagnetic field, therefore acting as a birefringent medium. This effect has not yet been measured. In this paper, after having recalled the main facts concerning Vacuum…

Quantum electrodynamics (QED) becomes nonlinear when the magnetic field strength surpasses the critical Schwinger limit $B_Q \approx 4.41\cdot 10^{13}$ G. This limit is surpassed, for example, in the magnetospheres of a specific class of…
In two - loop effective Lagrangian, the low - temperature expansion of the $QED_{3+1}$ with a constant magnetic field and a finite chemical potential is performed. We then calculate the total fermion density, some components of polarization…
We report on evidence from lattice simulations that confinement is produced by dual superconductivity of the vacuum in full QCD as in quenched QCD. Preliminary information is obtained on the order of the deconfining phase transition.
The order parameter for monopole condensation is computed in terms of gauge invariant field strength correlators. Important properties emerge of the correlators in the confined phase, which could not be extracted by existing numerical…
Hadronic vacuum polarization is a key observable in low-energy QCD, and is famously the greatest contributor to the theoretical uncertainty in the muon magnetic moment. Its long-distance part in particular is a weak point of the current…
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…
Using an extended Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model as a low--energy effective model of QCD, we show that the vacuum in a strong external magnetic field (stronger than 10^{16} Tesla) experiences a spontaneous phase transition to an…
The effect of suppression of static magnetization of an anisotropic hard superconductor by alternating magnetic field is analyzed theoretically. The magnetic moment suppression dynamics is described with respect to the magnetization loop of…
We obtain a simple relation between massless and massive scattering amplitudes in gauge theories in the limit where all kinematic invariants are large compared to particle masses. We use this relation to derive the two-loop QED corrections…
Perturbative QCD has made significant progress over the last few decades. In the first part, we present an introductory overview of perturbative QCD as seen from a modern viewpoint. We explain the relation between purely perturbative…
