Non-equilibrium radiation is addressed theoretically by means of a stochastic lattice-gas model. We consider a resonating transmission line composed of a chain of radiation resonators, each at a local equilibrium, whose boundaries are in…
We use the Bodwin-Braaten-Lepage factorization scheme to separate the long- and short-distance factors that contribute to the decay rates of $\Upsilon$, $\eta_b$ (S-wave) and $\chi_b$,$h_b$ (P-wave). The long distance matrix elements are…
We show that a theoretical description of radial Rydberg wave packets in alkali-metal atoms based solely on hydrogenic wave functions and energies is insufficient to explain data that could be obtained in pump-probe experiments with current…
The radiative decay is believed to be an ideal lab to study hadronic structure of newly observed resonances because the reactions are governed by only the electromagnetic interaction (tree level). However, to obtain correct theoretical…
In this paper, we presented an approximate analytical treatment of the Coulomb plus logarithmic potential using perturbation theory to investigate the mass spectra of bottomonium and charmonium mesons for the low-order quantum states. The…
We show how radiative QCD corrections calculated in terms of quarks can be incorporated at the hadron level in inclusive semileptonic B-meson decays. The bound state effects are described by a momentum distribution function of the $b$…
Some recent issues in the theory of heavy quarkonium are discussed. Many of these deal with the need to extend the description of charmonium and bottomonium states beyond the simple quark-antiquark picture. Some recent progress on radiative…
We consider decays of the lowest-lying radially excited baryons. Assuming a single-quark decay approximation, and negligible configuration mixing, we make model-independent predictions for the partial decay widths to final states with a…
Radiative decays of the spin 1/2 baryonic resonances R with the decay mode R -> KN in case of small energy release are considered. Pentaquark is an example of such resonance. It is shown that in case of positive resonance parity corrections…
The long-distance electromagnetic radiative corrections to tau- -> pi- pi0 nu are re-evaluated. A meson dominance model is used to describe the emission of real photons in this decay. Results obtained for the hadronic spectrum and the decay…
We report a recent calculation of the heavy quarkonium energy levels and decay widths in a quark- gluon plasma whose temperature is much smaller than the inverse radius of the bound state, based on a Non-Relativistic Effective Field theory…
We study nonleptonic decays of the orbitally excited, \su6 \rep{70}-plet baryons in order to test the hypothesis that the successes of the nonrelativistic quark model have a natural explanation in the large-$N_c$ limit of QCD. By working in…
The strong decay amplitudes and radiative partial widths of orbital and radially excited states of $B$ and $B_s$ mesons are presented. These results are obtained with a nonrelativistic potential quark model, the nonrelativistic reduction of…
The leptonic decay widths of heavy quarkonia are complementary observables to the semileptonic decays of heavy mesons and provide additional insight into the possible lepton flavor universality breaking. We analyze the former in the…
We consider the Pauli-Fierz Hamiltonian with dynamical nuclei and investigate the transitions between the resonant electronic energy levels under the assumption that there are no free photons in the beginning. Coupling the limits of small…
In this paper we revisited phenomenological potentials. We studied S-wave heavy quarkonium spectra by two potential models. The first one is power potential and the second one is logarithmic potential. We calculated spin averaged masses,…
We present results for kaon decay widths of baryon resonances from a relativistic study with constituent quark models. The calculations are done in the point-form of Poincare-invariant quantum mechanics with a spectator-model decay…
We generalize the pointwise decay estimates for large data solutions of the defocusing semilinear wave equations which we obtained earlier under restriction to spherical symmetry. Without the symmetry the conformal transformation we use…
I give an overview of phenomenological heavy quark results obtained in NRQCD on the lattice. In particular I discuss the bottomonium and the b-light hadron spectrum. I also review recent results on the decay constants f_B and f_B_s.
This study examines the properties of heavy quarkonia $X$ by treating them as bound states of $Q$ and $\bar{Q}$ at the LO level within the NRQCD framework, where $Q$ represents either a charm or a bottom quark. The branching ratios for the…
