We develop a procedure to analytically calculate higher-order contributions to the high-temperature real-time static potential in QCD. It is based on the introduction of a semi-hard external scale, which lies between the hard scale (the…
QCD permits the existence of hybrid mesons that are made up of both quarks and gluons, including exotic states, i.e., quantum numbers prohibited for pure quark-antiquark states, with possible candidates found in experiments. We present…
