We investigate the spectroscopic properties of the strange particle kaon in the framework of hot and dense QCD. To this end, first, we find the perturbative spectral density, which is connected with both the temperature $T$ and the baryon…
It is shown that a perturbative treatment of nonabelian Debye screening at high temperature suffers from infrared problems already at the next-to-leading order, which is given by ring-resummed one-loop diagrams. Superficial infrared power…
Baryon production is studied within the framework of quantized fragmentation of QCD string. Baryons appear in the model in a fairly intuitive way, with help of causally connected string breakups. A simple helical approximation of QCD flux…
We perform a quark model calculation of the $b\bar{b}$ and $c\bar{c}$ spectra from a screened funnel potential form suggested by unquenched lattice calculations. A connection between the lattice screening parameter and an effective gluon…
We consider the difficulties of finite density QCD from the canonical formalism. We present results for small baryon numbers, where the sign problem can be controlled, in particular by supplementing the mu=0 sampling with imaginary mu…
We consider gauge theories with scalar matter with and without supersymmetry at nonzero chemical potential. It is argued that a chemical potential plays a role similar to the FI term. We analyze theory at weak coupling regime at large…
Z3 gauge theory with dynamical (bosonic) matter is studied in 4 dimensions with a finite chemical potential. This theory could be viewed as an effective theory describing the centre vortex picture of QCD colour confinement, but it is…
We study the effect of Debye screening of hypercharge when a net fermion number is reflected from a domain wall during a first order phase transition, which may be relevant for electroweak baryogenesis. We give a simple method for computing…
The subleading term of the heavy quark potential (the analogue of the Luscher term) is computed in a string model for the case of three quarks. It turns out to be positive in 2+1 dimensions, making the potential non-concave as a function of…
In this article we will discuss numerical results on screening masses and thermodynamic quantities in 2 + 1 dimensional SU(3) gauge theory. We will also compare them to perturbation theory and the dimensionally reduced model.
We discuss the spectrum of screening masses in a pure gauge theory near the deconfinement temperature from the point of view of the dimensionally reduced model describing the spontaneous breaking of the center symmetry. Universality…
We study the Debye mass, $m_D$, and the topological susceptibility, $\chi$, at high temperatures in non-abelian gauge theory. Both exhibit, at some order in the perturbation expansion, infrared sensitivity. As a result, a perturbative…
The effect of plasma screening on the electronic and vibrational properties of the H2+ molecular ion was analyzed within the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. When a molecule is embedded in a plasma, the plasma screens the electrostatic…
We study the spectrum of screening masses in the deconfined phase of (3+1)D SU(2) pure gauge theory near criticality and compare it with the spectrum of bound states in the broken symmetry phase of the 3D Ising model, which is related to…
We report on our analytical study of two-color QCD with an even number of flavors at high baryon density. Based on the pattern of chiral symmetry breaking induced by BCS-type diquark pairing we construct the low-energy effective Lagrangian…
The finite temperature spectrum of pseudo-scalar glueballs in a plasma is studied using a holographic model. The $ 0^{-+}$ glueball is represented by a pseudo-scalar (axion) field living in a five dimensional geometry that comes from a…
We continue our program of describing hadrons as rotating strings with massive endpoints. In this paper we propose models of baryons and confront them with the baryon Regge trajectories. We show that these are best fitted by a model of a…
We reexamine the quark mass induced term in chiral Lagrangian in color-flavor locking phase in dense QCD, and show that the meson mass term is determined by three independent invariants under chiral-axial symmetry, and a meson mass is given…
I review at a non-technical level the use of the gauge-string duality to study aspects of heavy ion collisions, with special emphasis on the trailing string calculation of heavy quark energy loss. I include some brief speculations on how…
