We give a simplified method to generate two types of zero-norm states in the old covariant first quantized (OCFQ) spectrum of open bosonic string. Zero-norm states up to the fourth massive level and general formulas of some zero-norm tensor…

We compute three and four point functions of the non-BPS scattering amplitudes, including a closed string Ramond-Ramond, gauge/scalar and tachyon in type IIA (IIB) superstring theories. We then discover a unique expansion for tachyon…
We construct the states and symmetries of N = 4 super-Yang-Mills by tensoring two N = 1 chiral multiplets and introducing two extra SUSY generators. This allows us to write the maximal N = 8 supergravity as four copies of the chiral…

We calculate, using the group theoretic approach to string theory, the tree and one loop scattering of four open and closed arbitrary bosonic string states. In the limit of high energy, but fixed angle, the multi-string vertex at tree and…
We uncover a relation between the scattering amplitudes of massive strings and the $\alpha'$ expansion of the massless string amplitude at tree level. More precisely, the n-point tree amplitude of n-1 massless and one massive state is…
We show that the scattering amplitude of four open string scalars or tachyons on the world-volume of a D$_p$-brane in the bosonic string theory can be written in a universal form. The difference between this amplitude and the corresponding…
We compute scattering amplitudes of leading Regge trajectory states in open superstring theories. Highest spin states at mass level n with spin s=n+1 for bosons and s=n+1/2 for fermions are generated by particularly simple vertex operators.…
The $s-$wave meson-baryon scattering is analyzed for the isospin-strangeness $I=1/2, S=0$ and $I=0,S=-1$ sectors, in a Bethe-Salpeter coupled channel formalism incorporating Chiral Symmetry. For both sectors, four channels have been…
We study systems of two and three mesons composed of pions and kaons at maximal isospin using four CLS ensembles with $a\approx 0.063\;$fm, including one with approximately physical quark masses. Using the stochastic Laplacian-Heaviside…

We study the possibility that the scalar mesons exist as four-quark states. The energy shift of two pseudoscalar mesons as a function of spatial lattice size makes a distinction between bound states and scattering states of four-quark…
Explicit expressions for one-loop five supergraviton scattering amplitudes in both type II superstring theories are determined by making use of the pure spinor formalism. The type IIB amplitude can be expressed in terms of a doubling of…
