We review how the rho meson can be modeled in an effective theory and discuss the implications of applying this approach to heavier spin-one resonances. Georgi's vector limit is explored, and its relationship to locality in a deconstructed…
In many calculations of the two--photon decay of hadronic molecules, the decay matrix element is estimated using the wave function at the origin prescription, in analogy to the two-photon decay of parapositronium. We question the…
We perform an analysis on the electromagnetic form factors of the $\Lambda$ hyperon in the time-like reaction $e^+e^-\rightarrow \Lambda\bar\Lambda$ by using a modified vector meson dominance model. We consider both the intrinsic structure…
In 2015, Archdeacon proposed the notion of Heffter arrays in view of its connection to several other combinatorial objects. In the same paper he also presented the following variant. A weak Heffter array $\mathrm{W}\mathrm{H}(m,n;h,k)$ is…

In this talk we briefly summarize our theoretical understanding of in-medium selfenergies of hadrons. With the special case of the $\omega$ meson we demonstrate that earlier calculations that predicted a significant lowering of the mass in…
The electromagnetic form factors of the $\Lambda$ hyperon in the time-like region are determined precisely through a dispersion-theoretical analysis of the world data for the cross section of the annihilation process $e^+e^-\to…
We study hyperon resonances by solving coupled channel scattering equations. The coupled systems include pseudoscalar- and vector-baryon channels. The parameters of the model are restricted by making a $\chi^2$-fit to the cross section data…
We summarize some features of the vector meson dominance model which was recently proposed for studying radiative decays involving the scalar mesons. Using the experimental values of $\Gamma(a_0 \to \gamma\gamma)$, $\Gamma(f_0 \to…
Among the light baryons, the $J^\pi = \frac{1}{2}^-$ $\Lambda(1405)$ hyperon is an important special case as it sits just below the $N\bar{K}$ threshold and decays almost exclusively to $\Sigma\pi$. Some long-standing hypotheses for…
In the Aharonov-Albert-Vaidman (AAV) weak measurement, it is assumed that the measuring device or the pointer is in a quantum mechanical pure state. In reality, however, it is often not the case. In this paper, we generalize the AAV weak…
We investigate the decays of the excited $(b\bar q)$ mesons as probes of the short-distance structure of the weak $\Delta B=1$ transitions. These states are unstable under the electromagnetic or strong interactions although their widths are…
We evaluate the radiative decay into a pseudoscalar meson and a photon of the whole set of the axial-vector mesons dynamically generated from the vector-pseudoscalar meson ($VP$) interaction. We take into account tree level and loop…
This is a review of electroweak precision physics with particular emphasis on low-energy precision measurements in the neutral current sector of the electroweak theory and includes future experimental prospects and the theoretical…
The density dependent relativistic hadron field (DDRH) theory is applied to strongly asymmetric nuclear matter and finite nuclei far off stability. A new set of in-medium meson-nucleon vertices is derived from Dirac-Brueckner Hartree-Fock…
We review the status of the theory and phenomenology of heavy-quark symmetry, exclusive weak decays of $B$ mesons, inclusive decay rates and lifetimes of $b$ hadrons, and CP violation in $B$-meson decays.
We consider the fidelity of the vector meson dominance (VMD) assumption as an instrument for relating the electromagnetic vector-meson production reaction $e + p \to e^\prime + V + p$ to the purely hadronic process $V + p \to V+p$. Analyses…
The density dependent relativistic hadron (DDRH) theory is introduced as an effective field theory for nuclei and hypernuclei. A Dirac-Brueckner approach to in-medium nucleon-hyperon interactions is presented. Density dependent meson-baryon…
Inspired by the recent observation of the $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ by LHCb collaboration, we explore the "decay constants" of doubly heavy baryons in the framework of QCD sum rules. With the $\Xi_{cc}, \Xi_{bc}, \Xi_{bb}$, and $\Omega_{cc},…
Physical reason behind the mass-shift of vector mesons ($\rho$, $\omega$, $\phi$) in nuclear matter is discussed in the Walecka model and in QCD sum rules. Using analytic formulas for the mass-shift valid at low densities, it is shown that…
