We discuss a new family of multi-quanta bound states in the Standard Model, which exist due to the mutual Higgs-based attraction of the heaviest members of the SM, namely, gauge quanta $W,Z$ and (anti)top quarks, $\bar t, t $. We use a…
We derive classically an expression for a hadron width in a two-phase region of hadron gas and quark-gluon plasma (QGP). The presence of QGP gives hadrons larger widths than they would have in a pure hadron gas. We find that the $\phi$…
