Recently, it has been demonstrated that the chemical composition of jets in heavy ion collisions is significantly altered compared to jets in the vacuum. This signal can be used to probe the medium formed in nuclear collisions. In this…
Employing scalar QCD we study the gluon emission of heavy quarks created by the interaction with light quarks considered as dynamical scattering centers. We develop approximation formulas for the high energy limit and study when the full…
Heavy quarks created in heavy-ion collisions serve as an excellent probe of the produced quark-gluon plasma (QGP). The radiation pattern of jets formed from heavy quarks as they traverse the QGP exhibits a particularly interesting structure…
We review many of the recently developed applications of Heavy Quark Effective Theory techniques. After a brief update on Luke's theorem, we describe striking relations between heavy baryon form factors, and how to use them to estimate the…
The instanton vacuum picture is used to study hadronic matrix elements of the twist-3 (dimension-4, spin-1) QCD operators measuring the quark spin density and spin-orbit correlations. The QCD operators are converted to effective operators…
We discuss the role of instantons in the spectroscopy of ordinary and exotic hadrons as well as in high energy reactions. We argue that the instanton induced flavor- and spin-dependent quark-quark and quark-gluon interactions can explain…
The diffusion coefficients of heavy quarks from the coherent color electromagnetic fields which are generated in the early stage of relativistic heavy-ion collisions are calculated at midrapidity, and compared with those obtained from…
We investigate the mass spectra of ordinary heavy mesons, based on a nonrelativistic potential approach. The heavy-light quark potential contains the Coulomb-type potential arising from one-gluon exchange, the confining potential, and the…
The light-front QCD is studied using the method of flow equations. Solving the light-front gluon gap equation, the effective gluon mass is generated dynamically. The effective interaction between static quark and antiquark, generated…
We investigate the effect of a non-perturbative gluon condensate on the spectrum of bound states of extremely heavy quarks using Non-Relativistic-QCD (NRQCD). Simulations are done with an improved gluon action on small lattices. We compare…
We consider instanton contributions to chiral correlators, such as <0| Tr \lambda^2 (x) Tr \lambda^2(x') |0>, in N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with either light adjoint or fundamental matter. Within the former model, extraction of…
We investigate the structure of charmonium, bottomonium, and $\rm B_c$ meson systems within the Basis Light-Front Quantization (BLFQ) approach, including both the quark-antiquark ($|q\bar{q}\rangle$) and quark-antiquark-gluon…
We analyse the possible existence of non-perturbative contributions in heavy $\bar Q Q$ systems ($\bar Q$ and $Q$ need not have the same flavour) which cannot be expressed in terms of local condensates. Starting from QCD, with well defined…
We apply the gradient flow on a color-electric two-point function that encodes the heavy quark momentum diffusion coefficient. The simulations are done on fine isotropic lattices in the quenched approximation at $1.5\,T_c$. The continuum…
The interaction of light quarks and instanton liquid in the phase of nonzero values of chiral condensate is studied at finite quark/baryon density. Calculating the generating functional in the tadpole approximation we investigate the…
The effective quark Lagrangian is derived from the QCD action by means of averaging over the vacuum fields. In the limit of large N_c and keeping for simplicity the lowest order gluonic correlator one obtains nonlinear equations for the…
The fermion determinant in an instanton background for a quark field of arbitrary mass is determined exactly using an efficient numerical method to evaluate the determinant of a partial wave radial differential operator. The bare sum over…

We have studied the three quark systems in an Effective Hamiltonian approach in QCD. With only two parameters: the string tension sigma and the strong coupling constant alpha_s we obtain a good description of the ground state light and…
The Schwinger-Dyson formalism is used to check the consistency of instanton model solutions for the quark propagator with recent models of confining gluon propagators. We find that the models are not consistent. A major discrepancy is the…
