We report on the calculation of the next-lo-leading order QCD corrections to Higgs boson production and decay in association with top quarks. We consider leptonic decays of top quarks leading to the hadronic process $pp\to e^+\nu_e\,…
We improve the theoretical predictions for the decays of the Higgs boson to an $S$-wave vector quarkonium plus a photon by calculating the relativistic correction of order $v^2$, where $v$ is the heavy-quark velocity in the quarkonium rest…
Several methods for studying the nature of a resonance are applied to resonances recently discovered in the bottonomium and charmonium sectors. We employ the effective-range expansion, the saturation of the width and compositeness of a…
The radiative decay is believed to be an ideal lab to study hadronic structure of newly observed resonances because the reactions are governed by only the electromagnetic interaction (tree level). However, to obtain correct theoretical…

Some of the non-relativistic QQ/bar interaction potentials and its isospectral partner-potentials have been employed to evaluate the masses and leptonic decay widths of Charmonium and Upsilon states. An attempt has been made to develop a…
Hybrid mesons are exotic mesons in which the color field is not in the ground state. Their understanding deserves interest from a theoretical point of view, because it is intimately related to nonperturbative aspects of QCD. Moreover, it…
We consider heavy meson-antimeson pairs and their coupling to quarkonium in the context of nonrelativistic EFTs incorporating the adiabatic expansion. We work out all the leading order couplings of quarkonium to heavy meson-antimeson pairs…
