The QCD string model is employed to evaluate the masses of orbitally and radially excited heavy-light mesons and lightest hybrids in the spectrum of charmonium and bottomonium. The number of parameters of the model is reduced to only seven…
We present the analytic expressions for the two-loop form factors for the production or decay of pseudo-scalar quarkonia, in a scheme where the quarks are produced at threshold. We consider the two-loop amplitude for the process $\gamma…
Within the NRQCD framework, we calculate the exclusive production of double heavy quarkonium(double charmonium and double bottomonium) at future super $Z$ factory and at the CEPC/FCC-ee. The color-octet(CO) channels in the…
Recent results in studies of bottomonium especially relevant to charmonium are reviewed. This report covers dipion transition matrix elements, $\eta$ production in $\Upsilon$ transitions, $\Upsilon$ decays to invisible particles, a search…
We report the results on the searches of exclusive production of low- and high-mass pairs with the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV. The analyses comprise the central exclusive…
A precision determination of the neutral-pion width would improve determinations of the splitting between the up- and down-quark masses, and matrix elements for the decay of neutral mesons into two photons could play a role in the attempt…
We calculate the decay rates of $B$ mesons into P-wave charmonium states using new factorization formulas that are valid to leading order in the relative velocity of the charmed quark and antiquark and to all orders in the running coupling…
The decays of $\chi_{cJ} \to \pi^+\pi^-, K^+K^-$ $(J=0,2)$ are discussed within the standard and modified hard scattering approach when including the contributions from twist-3 distribution amplitudes and wave functions of the light…
The hadronic decays $B\to J/\psi K(K^*)$ are interesting because experimentally they are the only color-suppressed modes which have been measured, and theoretically they are calculable by QCD factorization even the emitted meson $J\psi$ is…
In this paper the processes $e^+ e^- \to J/\Psi J/\Psi, J/\Psi \psi', \psi' \psi'$ are considered in the framework of light cone formalism. An important distinction of this approach in comparison to the approaches used in other papers is…
Mechanism of di-pion transitions $nS\to n'S\pi\pi(n=3,2; n'=2,1)$ in bottomonium and charmonium is studied with the use of the chiral string-breaking Lagrangian allowing for the emission of any number of $\pi(K,\eta),$ and not containing…
I briefly review Non-Relativistic QCD and related effective theories, and discuss applications to heavy quarkonium decay, and production in electron-positron colliders.
We investigate the recently reported threshold enhancement in top-antitop production at the LHC in a finite, gauge-covariant, entire-function-regulated nonlocal quantum field theory framework. Our results demonstrate that the observed…
We study the phenomenology of the ground-state (pseudo-)scalar charmonia $\eta_c$ and $\chi_{c0}$ in the framework of a $U(4)_r \times U(4)_l$ symmetric linear sigma model with (pseudo-)scalar and (axial-) vector mesons. Based on previous…
We outline the proofs of the factorization theorems for exclusive two-body charmonium production in B-meson decay and e^+e^- annihilation to all orders in perturbation theory in quantum chromodynamics. We find that factorized expressions…
Quarkonium production at a given large p_T is dominated by parton fragmentation: a parton which is produced with transverse momentum p_T/z fragments into a quarkonium state which carries a fraction z of the parton momentum. Since parton…
We compute the in-medium partial decay widths of the bottomonium states to open bottom mesons ($B\bar B$) using a field theoretical model for composite hadrons with quark constituents. These decay widths are calculated by using the explicit…
We update the allowed parameter space of the CP-violating 2HDM with Type II Yukawa couplings, that survives the current experimental and theoretical constraints on the model. For a representative set of allowed parameter points, we study…
We investigate E1 radiative transitions within charmonium in a relativistic approach based on light-front QCD. In quantum field theory, two sets of processes are pure E1: $\chi_{c0} \to J/\psi \gamma$ ($\psi\to \chi_{c0}\gamma$) and $h_c…
We revisit QCD calculations of radiative heavy meson decay form factors by including the subleading power corrections from the twist-two photon distribution amplitude at next-to-leading-order in $\alpha_s$ with the method of the light-cone…
