We study the propagation of charm quarks, produced from the initial fusion of partons, in an equilibrating quark-gluon plasma which may be formed in the wake of relativistic collisions of gold nuclei. Initial conditions are taken from a…
We propose a qualitatively new mechanism for quarkonium production, motivated by the global features of the experimental data and by the successes/failures of existing models. In QCD, heavy quarks are created in conjunction with a…
QCD perturbation theory using quark and gluon propagators that have an extra term at zero four-momentum is equivalent to standard PQCD in the presence of massless quark and gluon pairs in the perturbative vacuum. We verify at low orders in…
We present a determination of the strange, charm and bottom quark masses as well as the strong coupling constant in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD simulations using highly improved staggered quark action. The ratios of the charm quark mass to the…
In quantum chromodynamics (QCD), axial charge is known to be non-conserved due to chiral anomaly and non-vanishing quark mass. In this paper, we explore the role of quark mass in axial charge fluctuation and dissipation. We present two…
We calculate the contribution to the gravitational form factors (GFFs) from the gluon part of the energy-momentum tensor in QCD. We take a simple spin $1/2$ composite state, namely a quark dressed with a gluon. We use the light-front…
We combine the recently introduced Non-Abelian Quasi-Particle Model (NAQPM) for gluons with an ideal Fermi gas of three quark species with the aim to describe the equation of state (energy density vs. temperature) of $2+1$ - flavour…
It is shown that inelastic process of the exchange with two massless gluons is formally equivalent to the process of the exchange with one massive particle. Thus, using the Laplace's method, a new mechanism of mass generation in inelastic…
We describe a new technique to determine the contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon coming from the hadronic vacuum polarization using lattice QCD. Our method reconstructs the Adler function, using Pad\'{e} approximants,…
The heavy quarks constitutes a unique probe of the quark-gluon plasma properties. Both at RHIC and LHC energies a puzzling relation between the nuclear modification factor $R_{AA}(p_T)$ and the elliptic flow $v_2(p_T)$ has been observed…
We calculate the dynamically generated up quark mass in some QCD-like theories with $F=3$ light flavors, obtained from supersymmetric QCD perturbed via anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking. We match the low-energy effective theory to the…
We investigate the influence of quark anomalous magnetic moments (AMMs) on the mass spectra of neutral pseudoscalar mesons ($\pi$, $K$, $\eta$, $\eta^{'}$) under external magnetic fields, finite temperatures, and quark chemical potentials…
We present the two-loop virtual QCD corrections to the production of heavy quarks in gluon fusion. The results are exact in the limit when all kinematical invariants are large compared to the mass of the heavy quark up to terms suppressed…
We revisit the anomalous chromomagnetic dipole moment in the Standard Model and show that its triple gluon vertex contribution, with the on-shell gluon ($q^2=0$), generates an infrared divergent pole. Consequently, the chromomagnetic dipole…
The empirical identification of bound states of gluons has remained a central goal of hadron spectroscopy. We suggest an experimentally challenging, but model--independent way to assess which zero charge, isospin-zero mesons have a large…
We report results on the proton mass decomposition and also on related quark and glue momentum fractions. The results are based on overlap valence fermions on four ensembles of $N_f = 2+1$ DWF configurations with three lattice spacings and…
We study the generation of baryon inhomogeneities in regions of the quark gluon plasma which have a charge imbalance. We find that the overdensity in the baryon lumps for positively charged particles is different from the overdensity due to…
