The fully charmed hadronic scalar molecules $\mathcal{M}_1=\eta_c \eta_c$ and $\mathcal{M}_2=\chi_{c0}\chi_{c0}$ are studied in the context of the QCD sum rule method. The masses $m$, $\widetilde{m}$ and current couplings $f$, $…
From a diabatic bound state approach to $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ and $(0,1,2)^{++}$ charmoniumlike resonances below $4.1$ GeV, formulated in terms of ${c\overline{c}}$ and closed meson-meson channels, we calculate mass shifts and widths due to open…

We report the continuum limits of the speed of sound, c_s, and the specific heat at constant volume, c_v, in quenched QCD at temperatures of 2Tc and 3Tc. At these temperatures, c_s is within 2-sigma of the ideal gas value, whereas c_v…
Finite temperature lattice QCD indicates that the charmonium ground state J/psi can survive in a quark-gluon plasma up to 1.5 T_c or more, while the excited states chi_c and psi-prime are dissociated just above T_c. We assume that the chi_c…
We report first results for spectral functions of charmonium in 2-flavour QCD. The spectral functions are determined from vector and pseudoscalar correlators on a dynamical, anisotropic lattice. J/psi and eta_c are found to survive well…
