We report the first Dyson-Schwinger equation predictions for the leading-twist distribution amplitudes of the $B^*$, $B_s^*$, and $B_c^*$ mesons, and extend the investigation to a broader set of heavy-light pseudo-scalar/vector mesons.…
The amplitudes for photoproduction of two pseudoscalars on a nucleon are expanded in the overall c.m. frame in a model independent way with respect to the contribution of the final state partial wave of total angular momentum $J$ and its…
We calculate the vector and axial-vector form factors of $B_{u,d,s}$ decays into P-wave axial-vector mesons in the light-cone sum rule approach. For the sum rule results, we have included corrections of order $m_A/m_b$, where $m_A$ is the…
Gravitational waves from coalescing binary black holes encode the evolution of their spins prior to merger. In the post-Newtonian regime and on the precession timescale, this evolution has one of three morphologies, with the spins either…
We investigate the dynamical generation of the $b_1$ meson in the $\pi\omega$ interaction, using the fully off-mass-shell coupled-channel formalism with the $\pi\omega$, $\eta\rho$, $\pi\phi$, and $K\bar{K}^*$ channels included. We first…
We compute the renormalization and evolution of the soft-quark function that appears in the factorization theorem for Higgs-boson decays to two photons through a $b$-quark loop. Our computation confirms a conjecture by Liu, Mecaj, Neubert,…
In specific kinematics, hard exclusive amplitudes may be factorized into a short distance dominated part computable in a perturbative way on the one hand, and universal, confinement related hadronic matrix elements on the other hand. The…
The $\phi$ meson spectrum, which in vacuum is dominated by its coupling to the $\bar{K} K$ system, is modified in nuclear matter. Following a model based on chiral SU(3) dynamics we calculate the $\phi$ meson selfenergy in nuclear matter…
We study transitions between the three universal limiting kernels Airy, Pearcey and sine kernel, arising in Random Matrix Theory at edge, cusp and bulk points of the spectrum. Under appropriate rescalings, we provide complete asymptotic…
We present a summary of measurements sensitive to the CKM angle \phi 2 (\alpha), performed by the BaBar and the Belle experiments which both collect B\bar{B} pairs produced at the \Upsilon(4S) resonance in asymmetric e+e- collisions. We…
The invariant mass spectra of $\phi \to K^{+}K^{-}$ are measured in 12 GeV $p+A$ reactions in order to search for the in-medium modification of $\phi$ mesons. The observed $K^{+}K^{-}$ spectra are well reproduced by the relativistic…
Moments of the renormalized B-meson shape function provide a natural way to define short-distance, running heavy-quark parameters such as the b-quark mass and kinetic energy. These parameters are particularly well suited for studies of…
Some discrepancies between theory and experiment in the B -> pi K decays suggest the possibility of a new physics contribution with the structure of an electroweak penguin amplitude. If such a scenario is realised in nature, the branching…
We study the decay $J/\psi\to\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{0}$ within the framework of the Khuri-Treiman equations. We find that the BESIII experimental di-pion mass distribution in the $\rho(770)$-region is well reproduced with a once-subtracted…
Results are presented for the lowest moment of the distribution amplitude for the K-star vector meson. Both longitudinal and transverse moments are investigated. We use two flavours of O(a) improved Wilson fermions, together with a…
Production of $\phi$ mesons is considered in the course of heavy-ion collisions at SPS energies. We investigate the possible difference in momentum distributions of $\phi$ mesons measured via their leptonic ($\mu^+\mu^-$) and hadronic…
We consider density fluctuations of a two-fluid model consisting of hydrogen plasma and radiation prior to the cosmic hydrogen recombination. As investigation method that of the dispersion relations is applied, which have been derived from…
A set of well known once subtracted dispersion relations with imposed crossing symmetry condition is used to modify unitary multichannel $S$ ($\pi\pi$, $K \bar K$, and $\eta\eta$) and $P$ ($\pi\pi$, $\rho 2\pi$, and $\rho\sigma$) wave…

We study the angular distributions of the baryon-antibaryon low-mass enhancements in the three-body baryonic B decays of $B\to p\bar{p}M$ (M=K and $\pi$) in the framework of the perturbative QCD. By writing the most general forms for the…
