We study the real-time evolution of an electron influenced by intense electromagnetic fields using the time-dependent basis light-front quantization (tBLFQ) framework. We focus on demonstrating the non-perturbative feature of the tBLFQ…
We propose an effective field theory for heavy quark-antiquark bound states once the soft gluons have been integrated out. We also give new results for the matching between QCD (QED) and NRQCD (NRQED).
Fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states, known for their robust topological order and the emergence of non-Abelian anyons, have captured significant interest due to the appealing applications in fault-tolerant quantum computing. Bottom-up…
Electromagnetism becomes a nonlinear theory having (effective) photon-photon interactions due at least to electron-positron fluctuations in the vacuum. We discuss the consequences of the nonlinearity for the force felt by a charge probe…
Motivated by a special consideration in quantum measurement, we present a new improved energy-momentum tensor. The new tensor differs from the traditional canonical and symmetric ones, and can be derived as Nother current from a Lagrangian…
We show the system of a heavy charged particle and a neutral atom can be described by a low-energy effective field theory where the attractive $1/r^4$ induced dipole potential determines the long-distance/low-energy wave functions. The…
We develop a non-relativistic quantum field theory of electrons and nuclei based on the Coulomb Hamiltonian. We derive the exact equations of motion and write these equations in the form of Hedin's equations for all species of identical…

We present the quantum field description of Galilean electrodynamics minimally coupled to massless Galilean fermion in (3 + 1) dimensions. At the classical level, the Lagrangian is obtained as a null reduction of a relativistic theory in…

The orthopositronium decay to three photons is studied in the phase-space region where one of the photons has an energy comparable to the relative three-momentum of the e+e- system (w ~ m alpha). The NRQED computation in this regime shows…
We derive Spinless Salpeter equation for the positronium using the NRQED Lagrangian. Consequently, we consider the Spinless Salpeter wavefunction instead of the Schrodinger wavefunction to show that the NRQED calculation can be done easier.…

We consider a field theory describing interacting nonrelativistic particles of two types, which map to each other under time reversal, with point-like interaction. We identify a new type of interaction which depends on the relative velocity…
We show that an all-optical configuration of the laser-electron collision in the $\lambda^{3}$ configuration based on 10 PW-class lasers presents a viable platform for reaching the range of parameters where a perturbative QED in strong…
A relativistic quantized particle model avoids difficulties through (1) a Hamiltonian undecomposable into H=H(0)+H(I), (2) a separation of the evolution parameter s from dynamics, (3) "leptons" and "hadrons" composed of "quarks," and (4)…
We derive a mean-field model that is based on a two-component Pauli-like equation and incorporates quantum, spin, and relativistic effects up to second order in $1/c$. Using a Lagrangian approach, we obtain the self-consistent charge and…
The Lagrangian density of Relativistic Hadrodynamics (RHD) is extended by introducing non-linear derivative (NLD) interactions of the nucleon with the meson fields. As a consequence, the nucleon selfenergy becomes both momentum and density…
