Recently BESIII collaboration discovered a charged strange hidden-charm state $Z_{cs}$(3985) in the $D_s^-D^{*0} + D_s^{*-}D^{0}$ spectrum. A higher $Z'_{cs}$ state coupling to $\bar{D}_s^{*-}D^{*0}$ is expected by SU(3)-flavor symmetry,…
We consider Exclusive Double Diffractive Events (EDDE) as a powerfull tool to study the picture of the $pp$ interaction. Calculations of the cross-sections for the process $p+p\to p+M+p$ are presented in the convenient form for further…
We investigate the hadron-hadron total cross sections at high energies in the framework of holographic QCD. In our model setup, the involved strong interaction is described by the Brower-Polchinski-Strassler-Tan Pomeron exchange kernel, and…
We propose the asymmetry in the fractional energy of charm versus anticharm jets produced in high energy diffractive photoproduction as a sensitive test of the interference of the Odderon (C = -) and Pomeron (C = +) exchange amplitudes in…
We investigate the form-factor dependence of Reggeized tensor Pomeron and Odderon exchanges in high-energy elastic $pp$ and $p\bar p$ scattering. The spin structure is implemented through explicit covariant spin-2 and spin-3 projectors,…
We study the perturbative Odderon in the quasidiffractive process gamma(*) gamma(*) to eta_c eta_c. At high energies this process is dominated by Odderon exchange and can be viewed as the theoretically cleanest test of the perturbative…
On March 19-21, 1998, a workshop devoted to questions of the pomeron and the odderon in high energy scattering was held in Heidelberg. This note gives a personal account of some of the issues discussed at this workshop. Of course,…
Odd viscoelasticity arises in parity-violating nonequilibrium materials, where it leads to unconventional mechanical responses and oscillatory relaxation even in overdamped systems. While many living and active chiral materials present…
Exclusive $C=+1$ scalar, axial-vector, and tensor quarkonium production in high-energy electron-proton scattering requires a $C$-odd $t$-channel exchange of a photon or a three gluon ladder. We derive the expressions for the corresponding…
Recent results on the slope of the $pp$ diffraction cone measured by TOTEM at $7$ and $8$ GeV show an unexpected rapid rise in $s$, close to $B(s)\sim \ln^2$, rather than $\ln s$, typical of the Regge-pole predictions. We show that the new…
The TOTEM experiment at the LHC measures the total proton-proton cross section with the luminosity-independent method and the elastic proton-proton cross-section over a wide |t|-range. It also performs a comprehensive study of diffraction,…
We present the result of a search for a massive color-octet vector particle, (e.g. a massive gluon) decaying to a pair of top quarks in proton-antiproton collisions with a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. This search is based on 1.9…
Unconventional superconductivity arising from electron-electron interaction can manifest exotic symmetry and topological properties. We investigate the superconducting pairing symmetry problem based on the 3D cubic $O_h$ symmetry with both…
In studies of high energy $pp$ and $\bar pp$ scattering, the odd (under crossing) forward scattering amplitude accounts for the difference between the $pp$ and $\bar pp$ cross sections. Typically, it is taken as…
At high baryonic density with the formation of a diquark condensate $\Delta \neq 0$, the QCD color symmetry is spontaneously broken. Being massive by the Anderson-Higgs mechanism, gluon and photon should mix together within two linear…
The unique SLD CCD vertex detector combined with the highly-polarised electron beam allow us to search for an anomalous chromomagnetic coupling of the b-quark, as well as P-odd, T_N-odd and CP-odd processes at the b bbar g vertex.
The application of a modified gluon propagator and an infrared frozen running co upling constant in the description of the proton-proton elastic scattering is in vestigated. The model based on the exchange of the Pomeron as a pair of…
The superconducting state and mechanism are among the least understood phenomena in twisted graphene systems. For instance, recent tunneling experiments indicate a transition between nodal and gapped pairing with electron filling, which is…
The spectrum of the glueball with $J^{PC}=0^{--}$ is computed using different bottom-up holographic models of QCD. The results indicate a lowest-lying state lighter than in the determination by other methods, with mass $m \simeq 2.8$ GeV.…
Hadrons with explicit gluonic degrees of freedom, such as charmonium hybrids, are key to understanding nonperturbative behavior of strong interaction, yet they remain experimentally elusive. Within a constituent gluon model treating the…
