We present a lattice QCD calculation of the ground-state energy shifts of various baryons in a medium of pions or kaons at a single value of the quark mass corresponding to a pion mass of m_\pi~390 MeV and a kaon mass of m_K~540 MeV, and in…
An important ingredient of parton or string cascade models for ultrarelativistic heavy-ion reactions is a parton description of the baryon. Whereas previous models needed the concept of a diquark in an essential way, we have developed a new…
The four-nucleon bound state and scattering below three-body breakup threshold are described based on the realistic coupled-channel potential CD Bonn + $\Delta$ which allows the excitation of a single nucleon to a $\Delta$ isobar. The…
There is evidence that the properties of hadrons are modified in a nuclear medium. Information about the medium modifications of the internal structure of hadrons is fundamental for the study of dense nuclear matter and high-energy…
We present results from recent calculations of the QCD equation of state by the HotQCD Collaboration and review the implications for hydrodynamic modeling. The equation of state of QCD at zero baryon density was calculated on a lattice of…
We construct BPS-exact solutions of the worldvolume Born-Infeld plus WZW action of a D5-brane in the background of N D3-branes. The non-trivial background metric and RR five-form field strength play a crucial role in the solution. When a…
We develop a new relativistic mean field (RMF) model including explicit three-body couplings and apply it to hyperonic systems and neutron star matter. The recent observation of the massive mass neutron star has given us a puzzle; when…

We review the results obtained in an Effective Hamiltonian (EH) approach for the three-quark systems. The EH is derived starting from the Feynman--Schwinger representation for the gauge-invariant Green function of the three quarks…
We discuss the central and, mostly, spin-dependent potentials in heavy quarkonia $\bar b b, \bar c c$, with two goals in mind. The first is phenomenological: using the splitting between the 1S and 2S pairs, as well as the 1P and 2P quartet…
Background: The development of SU(3) chiral effective field theory has opened the way to a systematic exploration of three-baryon forces (3BFs), a key ingredient in hypernuclear and dense matter physics. However, $\Xi NN$ 3BF based on SU(3)…
This paper is devoted to the study of QCD equation of state in external magnetic field and nonzero baryon density. Our study is carried out by means of lattice simulation with 2+1 dynamical staggered quarks at the physical masses. The…
Fully converged calculations of deuteron-deuteron elastic scattering observables are performed at energies above three- and four-body breakup threshold. Differential cross sections and analyzing powers are obtained using realistic…
A simple class of unitary renormalization group transformations that force hamiltonians towards a band-diagonal form produce few-body interactions in which low- and high-energy states are decoupled, which can greatly simplify many-body…
We report on recent results of the QCDSF/UKQCD Collaboration on investigations of baryon structure using configurations generated with N_f=2+1 dynamical flavours of O(a) improved Wilson fermions. With the strange quark mass as an additional…
We present results of a systematic study of the capture process through the barrier penetration model. The nucleus-nucleus interaction potential is calculated using the double-folding model (DFM) with the M3Y Paris NN forces. The nucleon…

In this work, we investigate the weak decays of ground-state triply heavy baryons. We first obtain the form factors using the light-front quark model in the three-quark picture, and then apply them to arrive at some phenomenological…
We study the effect of the nucleon-nucleon-lambda (NN$\Lambda$) three-body force on neutron stars. In particular, we consider the NN$\Lambda$ force recently derived by the J\"{u}lich--Bonn--Munich group within the framework of chiral…
We study a configuration in matrix theory carying longitudinal fivebrane charge, i.e. a D0-D4 bound state. We calculate the one-loop effective potential between a D0-D4 bound state and a D0-anti-D4 bound state and compare our results to a…
