Perturbative gluon exchange interaction between quark and antiquark, or in a 3q system, is enhanced in magnetic field and may cause vanishing of the total q\bar q or 3q mass, and even unlimited decrease of it - recently called the magnetic…
We compute the QCD running coupling on the lattice as defined from the 3-gluon vertex. We present the results of an exploratory study at $\beta=6.0$ on a $16^4$ lattice, which show that for momenta larger than 2 \Gev, the coupling runs…
The axion-gluon coupling is the defining feature of the QCD axion. This feature induces additional and qualitatively different interactions of the axion with standard model particles -- quadratic couplings. Previously, hadronic quadratic…
For full QCD vacuum expectation values we construct an expansion in quark loop count and in powers of a coupling constant. The leading term in this expansion is the valence (quenched) approximation vacuum expectation value. Higher terms…

Studying the diffusion and kinetic equilibration of heavy quarks within a hot QCD medium profits from the knowledge of a coloured Lorentz force that acts on them. Starting from the spatial components of the vector current, and carrying out…
