Using the QCD string theory, we investigate the physical reason of the narrow width of penta-quark baryons in terms of the large gluonic-excitation energy. In the QCD string theory, the penta-quark baryon decays via a gluonic-excited state…
We study strong decays of nonstrange baryons by making use of the algebraic approach to hadron structure. Within this framework we derive closed expressions for decay widths in an elementary-meson emission model and use these to analyze the…
It is shown that naive two stage scenario of the soft multiparticle production in hadronic and nuclear collisions at high energy, when at first stage the colour strings are formed and at the second stage these strings, or some other (higher…
We analyze the mass spectra of hadrons and demonstrate that the physical spectra of mesons and baryons are well described by the exponential spectrum of open strings. The open-string spectrum, derived from string theory, is characterized by…
We have studied numerically the evolution and decay of axion strings. These global defects decay mainly by axion emission and thus contribute to the cosmological axion density. The relative importance of this source relative to misalignment…
With the advent of the LHC there is widespread interest in the discovery potential for physics beyond the standard model. In TeV-scale open string theory, the new physics can be manifest in the excitation and decay of new resonant…
In this review article we present the calculation of the splitting rate in flat space of a macroscopic fundamental string either intersecting at a generic angle a Dp-brane or lying on it. The result is then applied, in the context of the…
We evaluate the widths for the strong decays $\Sigma_c\to\Lambda_c \pi$, $\Sigma_c^*\to\Lambda_c \pi$ and $\Xi_c^{*}\to\Xi_c \pi$. The calculations have been done within a nonrelativistic constituent quark model with wave functions that…
A chiral effective theory of scalar and vector diquarks is formulated, which is based on $SU(3)_R\times SU(3)_L$ chiral symmetry and includes interactions between scalar and vector diquarks with one or two mesons. We find that the diquark…
Using the exisiting experimental data for hyperon semileptonic decays and the flavor-singlet axial-vector charge $g_{A}^{(0)}$ from polarized deep inelastic scattering of the proton, we derive the decay width of the $\Theta^{+}$ pentaquark…
We study the decay process of large-spin mesons in the context of the gauge/string duality, using generic properties of confining backgrounds and systems with flavour branes. In the string picture, meson decay corresponds to the…
In this letter we generalise the baryon vertex configuration of AdS/CFT by adding a suitable instantonic magnetic field on its worldvolume, dissolving D-string charge. A careful analysis of the configuration shows that there is an upper…
We study hadronic decays of mesons and baryons in the context of the Dyson-Schwinger equations of QCD. Starting from a well-established effective interaction in rainbow-ladder truncation, we consistently calculate all ingredients of the…
We consider "super no-scale models" in the framework of the heterotic string, where the N=4,2,1 --> 0 spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry is induced by geometrical fluxes realizing a stringy Scherk-Schwarz perturbative mechanism.…
We study the decay of fundamental string loops of arbitrary size L/min(n,m)>>\sqrt{\alpha'}, labelled by (n,m;\lambda_n,\bar{\lambda}_m), where n,m correspond to left- and right-mover harmonics and \lambda_n,\bar{\lambda}_m to polarisation…
Understanding flux string dynamics can provide insight into quark confinement and hadronization. First-principles quantum and numerical simulations have mostly focused on toy-model Abelian lattice gauge theories (LGTs). With the advent of…
Properties of single beauty baryons ($\Sigma_{b},\Lambda_{b}$) are studied based on the quark-diquark structure. The confinement potential is assumed as two body colour coulomb plus power potential with exponent $\nu$. We find a strong…
Massless chiral excitations can arise from the interactions between a fermion and an axion string, propagating along the string and allowing it to superconduct. The properties of these excitations, or zero modes, dictate how the string…
The question of classical topological stability of the gauge vortex defects is reanalyzed upon taking into account the quantum perturbative effects. The purely Abelian Higgs string remains stable while the coupling of the effectively…
We introduce spin-1/2 baryons in the string+${}^3P_0$ model of hadronization, previously restricted to the production of pseudoscalar and vector mesons. Baryons are modeled as quark-diquark bound states and baryon production is described by…
