We present a new method for the study of heavy-light mesons in the static approximation of lattice QCD which is optimally effective in isolating ground and excited states. With ``MOST'' (Maximal Operator Smearing Technique), the heavy quark…
The energies of different angular momentum states of a heavy-light meson were measured on a lattice by Michael and Peisa in Phys. Rev. D 58, 34506 (1998). We have now repeated this study using a larger, quenched lattice to check that there…
We propose a novel approach to construction of hadron spectroscopy. The case of light nonstrange mesons is considered. By assumption, all such mesons above 1 GeV appear due to creation of constituent quark-antiquark pairs inside the pi or…
We study meson spectrum obtained from massive open string modes in a holographic dual of QCD constructed on the basis of a D4/D8-brane configuration in type IIA string theory. The spectrum includes mesons with spin higher than one. Taking…
We calculate production cross sections of a single rotating string from a collision of two light states in bosonic string theory. We find that the cross sections are written in terms of the modified Bessel function of the first kind with…
A simple matching procedure is proposed to extract constraints on effective meson theories. In this way, a QCD prediction for the pion decay constant is found, F(pi)=2 m(pi)/pi, i.e. approximately 90MeV. The same procedure also determines…
