Charmonia produced in initial hard parton scatterings during heavy ion collisions move with respect to the medium rather than flow with the medium. Lattice studies suggest that charmonium bound states at the rest are dissociated at…
We present a QCD sum-rule determination of the heavy-quark kinetic energy inside a heavy meson, $-\lambda_1/2 m_Q$, which is consistent with the field-theory analog of the virial theorem. We obtain $-\lambda_1\approx (0.10\pm…
Charmonium-like resonances and bound states with isospin zero and $J^{PC}=0^{++},~1^{--},~2^{++},~3^{--}$ are extracted on the lattice. Coupled $D\bar D$ and $D_s\bar D_s$ scattering suggests three charmonium-like states with…
Gluon fragmentation to heavy $J^{PC}=2^{-+}$ quarkonia is studied herein. We compute these D-wave states' polarized fragmentation functions and find that they are enhanced by large numerical prefactors. The prospects for detecting the…
We determine the charm quark mass $\hat{m}_c$ from QCD sum rules of moments of the vector current correlator calculated in perturbative QCD at ${\cal O} (\hat\alpha_s^3)$. Only experimental data for the charm resonances below the continuum…
We investigate the effect of a small, gauge-invariant mass of the gluon on the anomalous chromomagnetic moment of quarks (ACM) by perturbative calculations at one loop level. The mass of the gluon is taken to have been generated via a…
Verifying the existence of bound states of gluons and distinguishing them from conventional quark-antiquark, hybrid or tetraquark states has remained a key problem in QCD. We show that QCD counting rules for the power-law fall-off of…
We study the properties of charmonium states at finite temperature in quenched lattice QCD on large and fine isotropic lattices. We perform a detailed analysis of charmonium correlation and spectral functions both below and above Tc. Our…
Motivated by the gluon-chain model of flux tube formation, we compute and diagonalize the transfer matrix in lattice SU(2) gauge theory for states containing heavy static quark-antiquark sources, with separations up to one fermi. The…
The charmonium system has several excited states below the energy threshold for decay into $D$ and $\bar{D}$ mesons, which can in principle be studied accurately in lattice QCD. Studies that include many states in the spectrum have…
Lattice QCD results on the spectroscopy of charmonium(like) states and open charm mesons are reviewed. Near-threshold states X(3872) and D_{s0}^*(2317) were treated rigorously for the first time and the searches for Z_c^+(3900), X(4140) and…
Charmonium spectroscopy with Kogut-Susskind valence quarks are carried out for quenched QCD at $\beta=6.0$ and for two-flavor full QCD at $\beta=5.7$. Results for 1P--1S mass splitting and estimates of $\alpha^{(5)}_{\overline{MS}}(m_Z)$…
We determine the charm quark mass ${\hat m}_c({\hat m}_c)$ from QCD sum rules of moments of the vector current correlator calculated in perturbative QCD. Only experimental data for the charm resonances below the continuum threshold are…
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the theory of strong interactions, in principle describes the interaction of quark and gluon fields. However, due to the self-coupling of the gluons, quarks and gluons are confined into hadrons and cannot exist…
We extract the charm quark mass and the strong coupling constant from the charmonium current correlators calculated with $n_f = 2 + 1$ Mobius domain wall fermions. We match our lattice calculation for the temporal moments of the correlator…
By using a single formalism to handle charm, strange and light valence quarks in full lattice QCD for the first time, we are able to determine ratios of quark masses to 1%. For $m_c/m_s$ we obtain 11.85(16), an order of magnitude more…
In this work, we study the $1^{--}$ double-gluon charmonium ($\bar{c}ggc$) and bottomonium ($\bar{b} gg b$) hybrids in terms of QCD sum rules. We find that the mass of $\bar{c}ggc$ hybrid lies in $M_{H_{c}}$ = $5.33 \sim 5.90$ GeV, while in…
We study the dependence on the charm quark mass of the leading-order low-energy constants of the $\Delta S=1$ effective Hamiltonian, with the aim of elucidating the role of the charm mass scale in the $\Delta I=1/2$ rule for $K\to\pi\pi$…
Results for the equation of state in 2+1 flavor QCD at zero net baryon density using the Highly Improved Staggered Quark (HISQ) action by the HotQCD collaboration are presented. The strange quark mass was tuned to its physical value and the…
