Quarkonium resonances in the complex-mass scale are studied. Relativistic quark potential model is used to describe the quark-antiquark system. The complex-mass formula is obtained from two exact asymptotic solutions for the QCD motivated…
It is reviewed pedagogically how a very successful description of the eta-eta' mass matrix can be achieved in the consistently coupled Schwinger-Dyson and Bethe-Salpeter approach in spite of the limitations of the ladder approximation. This…
I report on recent progress in calculating electroweak processes within the framework of QCD in the 1/Nc expansion.
Neutrino masses are yet unknown. We discuss the present state of effective electron anti-neutrino mass from $\beta$ decay experiments; effective Majorana neutrino mass from neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments; neutrino mass squared…
The paper collects the various pieces of information concerning the relative size of m_u, m_d and m_s. A coherent picture results, which constrains the mass ratios to a rather narrow range: m_u/m_d = 0.553 \pm 0.043, m_s/m_d = 18.9 \pm 0.8.

An overview of lattice results for the strange quark mass, $B_K$, $B_6$, $B_7$, and $B_8$ is presented. I give my assessment of the reliability of various estimates and prospects for future improvements.
Two dimensional QCD is quantized on the light front coordinate. We solve the Einstein-Schr\"odinger equation by the use of Tamm-Dancoff truncation and find that the simplest wavefunction produces the $M/g$ versus $m/g$ relation in agreement…

We describe the effects of the strange quark mass and of the color and electric neutrality on the superconducing phases of QCD.
We apply the QCD factorization approach to exclusive, radiative B meson decays in the region of small invariant photon mass. We calculate factorizable and non-factorizable corrections to leading order in the heavy quark mass expansion and…
In this talk I report recent results on hadronic B decays obtained with the QCD factorization approach. In the first part I update the fit of the Wolfenstein parameters (\bar\rho,\bar\eta) to CP-averaged B -> pi pi, pi K branching…
I review recent insights and open questions connected with the production of eta--mesons from hadrons.
We highlight the progress, current status, and open challenges of QCD-driven physics, in theory and in experiment. We discuss how the strong interaction is intimately connected to a broad sweep of physical problems, in settings ranging from…
In recent years, the decay eta --> 3 pi has received considerable attention from experimental and theoretical side. It is of particular theoretical interest because it allows for the determination of (m_u - m_d). In addition, for many years…
We calculate the quantum mass corrections to the solitons in the C_2^(1) Affine Toda field theory. We find that the ratio of the masses of the two solitons is not constant.
Current experimental data suggest some relations between the Kobayashi-Maskawa Matrix and the quark mass ratios, namely $|V_{us}| \sim \sqrt{m_d / m_s}$, $|V_{ub} / V_{cb}| \sim \sqrt{m_u / m_c}$ and $|V_{cb}| \sim m_s / m_b$. We consider…
