The calculation of the masses of the lightest nucleon resonances using lattice QCD is surveyed. Recent results for the mass of the first radial excitation of the nucleon, the Roper resonance, are reviewed and the interpretation in terms of…
Here we develop the hadron resonance gas model with the Gaussian width of hadron resonances. This model allows us to treat the usual hadrons and the quark gluon bags on the same footing and to study the stability of the results obtained…
We have calculated microscopically bulk viscosity of hadronic matter, where equilibrium thermodynamics for all hadrons in medium are described by Hadron Resonance Gas (HRG) model. Considering pions and nucleons as abundant medium…
The hadron resonance gas model with hadron-type dependent eigenvolume corrections is employed to fit the hadron yield data of the NA49 collaboration for central Pb+Pb collisions at the c.m. energy per nucleon pair Ecm=6.3, 7.6, 8.8, 12.3,…
Mean-field model quantum field theories of hadrons were traditionally developed to describe cold and dense nuclear matter and are by now very well constrained from the recent neutron star merger observations. We show that when augmented…
In a hadronic gas with three conserved charges (electric charge, baryon number, and strangeness) we employ the hadron resonance gas model to compute both diagonal and off-diagonal susceptibilities. We model the effect of chemical freeze-out…
Investigation of the spacelike and timelike electromagnetic form factors of hadrons, within a relativistic microscopical model characterized by a small set of hypothesis, could shed light on the components of hadron states beyond the…
We revisit the problem of particlization of a QCD fluid into hadrons and resonances at the end of the fluid dynamical stage in relativistic heavy-ion collisions in a context of fluctuation measurements. The existing methods sample an ideal…
We study the internal structure of resonance states in a complex 2D matrix model. We show that the geometry with "exceptional points" in the complex-parameter space can be useful to discuss parameter dependence of the structures within…
Relativistic heavy ion collisions are studied assuming that particles can be described by a hadron gas in thermal and chemical equilibrium. The exact conservation of baryon number, strangeness and charge are explicitly taken into account.…

We study the resonance properties within chiral perturbation theory by explicitly taking into account the U_A(1) anomaly effect. This assures we have the appropriate degrees of freedom of low energy QCD in the large Nc limit. We calculate…
In the Regge phenomenology, the radial spectrum of light mesons is given by a linear relation $M_n^2=a(n+b)$, where $a$ is a universal slope, the dimensionless intercept $b$ depends on quantum numbers, and $n$ enumerates the excited states…
A simple thermal model with single freeze-out and flow is used to analyze the ratios of hadron yields and the hadron transverse-mass spectra measured in 130 GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC. An overall very good agreement between the model…
We review the present situation with hadron form factors in space-like and time-like regions. The possibility to transfer high momenta, and therefore to access small internal nucleon distances, allows to test nucleon models in particular…
