We analyze the ground state of the heavy-quark hybrid system composed of three quarks and a gluon. The known string tension K and approximately-known gluon mass M lead to a precise specification of the long-range non-relativistic part of…
We have searched for a light vector boson $U$, the possible carrier of a "dark force", with the KLOE detector at the DA$\Phi$NE \epm\ collider, motivated by astrophysical evidence for the presence of dark matter in the universe. Using \epm\…
Standard-Model Higgs bosons are dominantly produced via the gluon-fusion mechanism $gg \to H$ at the LHC, i.e. in a loop-mediated process with top loops providing the dominant contribution. For the measured Higgs boson mass of $\sim 125$…
On the basis of hydrodynamic model of evolution we consider emission of lightest (\pi,K,\eta,\rho,\omega,K^*) mesons directly from the surface of quark-gluon plasma, created in the heavy ion collision, with accounting of their absorption by…
A review of recent electroweak results from hadron colliders is given. Properties of the W and Z gauge bosons using final states containing electrons and muons based on large integrated luminosities are presented. The emphasis is placed on…
The QCD-vacuum is characterized by the Higgs phenomenon for colored scalar fields. In this dual picture the gluons appear as the octet of vector mesons. Also quarks and baryons are identified. Gluon-meson and quark-baryon duality can…
Central nuclear collisions at energies far above 1 GeV/nucleon may provide for conditions, where the transition from highly excited hadronic matter into quark matter or quark-gluon plasma can be probed. Here I review our current…
A search for a light charged Higgs boson (H$^+$) decaying to a W boson and a CP-odd Higgs boson (A) in final states with e$\mu\mu$ or $\mu\mu\mu$ is performed using data from pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$ 13 TeV, recorded by the CMS detector…
The relativistic nine-quark equations are found in the framework of the dispersion relation technique. $ ^3 He$ nucleus is described by these equations. We consider the $ ^3 He$ as the system of interacting quarks and gluons. The…
We compute the energy density radiated by a quark undergoing circular motion in strongly coupled $\mathcal N = 4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma. If it were in vacuum, this quark would radiate a beam of strongly coupled radiation whose…
This is the reply to a comment by Andreas Aste [hep-th/0302103] on a previous article of mine in Can.J.Phys. The counter-arguments used by Aste utilize a mathematical limit without physical meaning. We still contend that in QCD, the…
In this talk, I discuss some recent results obtained in Heavy Ion Collisions and what they tell us -- or what questions they raise -- about the physics of the system of quarks and gluons formed in these collisions.
Electroweak Precision Measurements are stringent tests of the Standard Model and sensitive probes to New Physics. Accurate studies of the $Z$-boson couplings to the first-generation quarks, which are currently constrained from LEP data to a…
The possibility of a light charged Higgs boson $H^\pm$ that decays predominantly to quarks ($cs$ and/or $cb$) and with a mass in the range 80 GeV $\le m_{H^\pm} \le 90$ GeV is studied in the context of Three-Higgs-Doublet Models (3HDMs). At…
A comprehensive review of physics at an e+e- Linear Collider in the energy range of sqrt{s}=92 GeV--3 TeV is presented in view of recent and expected LHC results, experiments from low energy as well as astroparticle physics.The report…
We present the results of a search for a very light CP-odd Higgs boson $a_1^0$ originating from top quark decays t -> H^+ b -> W^+ a_1^0 b, and subsequently decaying into tau-tau. Using a data sample corresponding to an integrated…
We present analytic results for one-loop Higgs boson + $n$-gluon amplitudes for $n\le 5$ in the full theory including all dependence on the (top) quark mass. In this paper we consider only the case where the gluons all have the same…
A light Higgs boson, with mass of the order of 100 GeV, is still not excluded by the existing experimental data, provided its coupling to gauge bosons is strongly suppressed compared to a SM-like Higgs boson at the same mass. Also other…
An overview is given on the experimental study of quark-gluon matter produced in relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions, with emphasis on recent measurements at the Large Hadron Collider.
Long term plans for the investigation of the quark and gluon structure of matter have for some time focussed on the possibility of an electron-ion collider, with the nuclear physics communities associated with JLab and BNL being…
