Within the composite operator formalism we derive a formula for the pion decay constant $f_{\pi}$, as defined directly from the residue at the pion pole of the meson propagator, rather than from the matrix element of the axial current. The…
A review of our works providing a theoretical description of incoherent pion photoproduction on the deuteron is presented. The existing $\gamma d\to\pi NN$ data are analysed, especially those obtained more recently by the CLAS Collaboration…
Scattering at physical pion mass is still an exploratory field in lattice QCD. This generally involves the extraction of excited states through multi-particle correlators on systems with resonances. In that context, distillation has been…
The photon -- induced interactions, present in $ep$, $eA$, $pp$, $pA$, $AA$ and $e^+ e^-$ collisions, are expressed within the color dipole approach in terms of the photon wave function, which describes the transition of the photon into a…
We point out some properties of the amplitude of the dipion transition $\Upsilon(3S) \to \Upsilon(1S) \pi \pi$ in relation to the recently reported results of a CLEO analysis of form factors in this amplitude. We find that the reported…
We suggest to update the expansion coefficients of 2$\pi$DAs with the distribution amplitudes of light mesons evaluated from lattice QCD, with which we revisit $\overline{B}^0 \to \pi^+\pi^0$ transition form factors from light-cone sum…
We study the light generated by spontaneous emission into a mode of a cavity QED system under weak excitation of the orthogonally polarized mode. Operating in the intermediate regime of cavity QED with comparable coherent and decoherent…
We discuss the simulation of non-perturbative cavity-QED effects using systems of trapped ions. Specifically, we address the implementation of extended Dicke models with both collective dipole-field and direct dipole-dipole interactions,…
In particle collider experiments, elementary particle interactions with large momentum transfer produce quarks and gluons (known as partons) whose evolution is governed by the strong force, as described by the theory of quantum…
We develop a comprehensive framework for extracting the pole position and properties of the doubly-charmed tetraquark $T_{\rm cc}^+(3875)$ from lattice QCD data using the relativistic three-particle formalism. This approach incorporates the…
In studies of the QCD deconfining phase transition or cross-over by means of heavy ion experiments, one ought to be concerned about non-equilibrium effects due to heating and cooling of the system. In this paper we extend our previous study…
We point out kaon decays to multiple charged leptons as a novel probe of light dark particles $X$. Previously neglected channels, such as $K^+\to \pi^+ \left(XX \to 2(e^+e^-)\right)$, $K_L\to \pi^0 \left( XX \to 2(e^+e^-)\right)$, and…
We study the exclusive decay of $1^{--}$ heavy quarkonium into one photon and two pions in the kinematic region, where the two-pion system has a invariant mass which is much smaller than the mass of heavy quarkonium. Neglecting effects…
We investigate the spontaneous emission of a two-level system coupled to a photonic waveguide, showing that dynamical dephasing in the photon modes profoundly alters the decay law. In the absence of dephasing, the emitter displays…
We propose a low energy effective field theory of QCD at the scale of pion mass for the $N_B=2$ sector, $N_B$ being the baryon number, which contains two dibaryon fields in addition to the nucleons and pions. It has a well defined counting,…
We analyze the quasi-two-body decays $B\to K\rho\to K\pi\pi$ in the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach, in which final-state interactions between the pions in the resonant regions associated with the $P$-wave states $\rho(770)$ and…
In order to model pions of two-flavor QCD we consider a lattice field theory involving two flavors of staggered quarks interacting strongly with U(1) gauge fields. For massless quarks, this theory has an $SU_L(2)\times SU_R(2) \times…
We present a method to evaluate on the lattice the leading isospin breaking effects due to both the small mass difference between the up and down quarks and the QED interaction. Our proposal is applicable in principle to any QCD+QED gauge…
Neutrinoless double beta decay, if detected, would prove that neutrinos are Majorana fermions and provide the direct evidence for lepton number violation. If such decay would exist in nature, then $\pi^-\pi^-\to ee$ and $\pi^-\to\pi^+ ee$…
Near threshold neutral pion electroproduction on the deuteron is studied in the framework of baryon chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order in the chiral expansion. We develop the multipole decomposition for pion production off…
