To know and understand form factors of hadronic currents is of decisive importance for analysing exclusive weak decays. The ratios of different form factors of a given process depend on the relativistic spin structure of initial and final…
In this article we review the basic formulation of light-front field theory and light-front phenomena in strong interaction. We also explore various approaches to the understanding of these phenomena and the associated problems of hadronic…
In this thesis a general relativistic framework for the calculation of the electroweak structure of mesons of arbitrary constituent-quark masses is presented. The physical processes in which the structure is measured, i.e. electron-meson…
The in-pseudoscalar-meson condensate can be represented through the pseudoscalar-meson's scalar form factor at zero momentum transfer. With the aid of a mass formula for scalar mesons, revealed herein, the analogue is shown to be true for…
We determine the invariant expression of the force density that the electromagnetic field exerts on dipolar matter and construct the non-symmetric energy-momentum tensor of the electromagnetic field in matter which is consistent with that…
We study the analytic structure of light-front wave functions (LFWFs) and its consequences for hadron form factors using an explicitly Lorentz-invariant formulation of the front form. The normal to the light front is specified by a general…
We present and demonstrate a version of Levinson's theorem especially dedicated to the asymptotic behavior of form factor phases. Indeed, as required by analyticity, form factors are multi-valued complex functions of a square four-momentum…
The Casimir force between conducting plates at rest in an inertial frame is usually computed in equal-time quantization, the natural choice for the given boundary conditions. We show that the well-known result obtained in this way can also…

We compute the radial distributions of the vector and axial charge density as well as of the matter density in the heavy-light mesons on the lattice. The results for the lowest lying static heavy-light mesons and their first excited…
We observe that the linear potential used as a leading approximation for describing color confinement in the instant form of dynamics corresponds to a quadratic confining potential in the front form of dynamics. In particular, the…
We investigate the different decompositions of the angular momentum in QCD for a relativistic spin $1/2$ composite state, namely a quark dressed with a gluon. We use light-front Hamiltonian perturbation theory, and in the light-front gauge,…

A relativistic light front formulation of nuclear dynamics is applied to infinite nuclear matter. A hadronic meson-baryon Lagrangian, consistent with chiral symmetry, leads to a nuclear eigenvalue problem which is solved, including…
We analyze the hard scattering amplitude of gravitational form factors (GFFs) of hadrons within QCD factorization at large momentum transfers, focusing on their conformal field theory (CFT) description. These form factors are key to…
The importance of the tensor force for nuclear structure has been recognized long ago. Recently, the interest for this topic has been revived by the study of the evolution of nuclear properties far from the stability line. However, in the…
An ideal compressible fluid is considered, with an equilibrium density being a given function of coordinates due to presence of some static external forces. The slow flows in such system, which do not disturb the density, are investigated…
