We have investigated the spectra of light-heavy quarkonia with the use of a quantum-chromodynamic potential model which is similar to that used earlier for the heavy quarkonia. An essential feature of our treatment is the inclusion of the…
I present one-loop level calculations of the Isgur-Wise functions for B -> D^{(*)} + e + nu, of the matrix elements of isovector twist-2 operators in B and D mesons, and the matrix elements for the radiative decays D^* -> D + gamma in…
In this work we study the Higgs mechanism and the Debye shielding for the Bopp-Podolsky theory of electrodynamics. We find that not only the massless sector of the Podolsky theory acquires a mass in both these phenomena, but also that its…

We calculate all those QCD $N$-point functions which are relevant for a three-loop QCD thermodynamics calculation with finite quark masses within the hard the thermal loop approximation. Using the effective quark propagator, we also…
We discuss quark antiquark energies and the screening mass in hot QCD using the non-perturbative lattice approach. For this purpose we analyze properties of quark antiquark energies and entropies at infinitely large separation of the quark…
We argue that in QCD, the Debye mass requires not only a mathematical definition but also a physical one and temporal axial gauge could provide for a physical screening potential for this purpose. Unfortunately, this gauge is spoiled by…
We compute corrections to the hard thermal (or dense) loop photon polarization tensor associated to a small mass $m$ of the fermions of an electromagnetic plasma at high temperature $T$ (or chemical potential $\mu$). To this aim we use the…
We calculate the Debye mass of massless \phi^4-theory to order g^6 at weak coupling. The contributions to the Debye mass arise from the hard momentum scale of order T and the soft momentum scale of order gT. Effective field theory methods…
