A significant discrepancy, spanning multiple orders of magnitude, exists between the leading order contribution to the $D^0\overline{D^0}$ mixing parameters and experimental values. This is largely due to the Glashow-Iliopoulos-Maiani (GIM)…
Observables in the $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ mixing can be theoretically analyzed by the operator product expansion (OPE), in which $1/m_c$ is regarded as an expansion parameter. Since the contributions of four-quark operators are strongly suppressed…
We re-visit the problem of non-perturbative contribution to the mass difference in D0-D0bar mixing within the Standard Model (SM). There are two known approaches to take this contribution into account. In the long long-distance approach one…
The study of neutral $D$-meson mixing provides a unique probe of long-distance effects in the charm sector, where Standard Model contributions are dominated by nonperturbative effects. In this work, we investigate the feasibility of using…
We investigate the effects of flavor SU(3)-symmetry breaking on the QCD condensates, based on the nonlocal effective chiral action from the instanton vacuum, focusing on the quark-gluon mixed one. We employ two different parameterizations…
D mesons serve as excellent probes of hot and/or dense strongly interacting matter. They can provide insight into the restoration of chiral symmetry. The chiral condensate as well as other chirally odd condensates, such as certain…
The screening masses of mesons provide a gauge invariant and definite order parameter of chiral symmetry restoration. Different mesonic correlation lengths for flavor non-singlets, at least up to NLO, are well-defined gauge invariant…
It is usually argued that the Standard Model predicts slow D^0-\bar D^0 oscillations with \Delta M_D, \Delta \Gamma_D < 10^{-3}*\Gamma_D$ and that New Physics can reveal itself through \Delta M_D exceeding 10^{-3}*\Gamma_D. It is believed…
We show that the perturbation series for quarkonia energies diverges at large orders. This results in a perturbative ambiguity in the energy that scales as e^(-1/a*Lambda) where a is the Bohr radius of quarkonium and Lambda is the QCD scale…
We consider the possibility that D^0 - anti-D^0 mixing undergoes resonant enhancement. Various scenarios are explored, including the potential effects of nearby pseudoscalar or scalar quark-antiquark (Q - anti-Q) resonances as well as of…
We study the Standard Model short-distance prediction for the mass and lifetime differences between the two neutral D meson mass eigenstates. We find that, despite \alpha_s/4\pi suppression, next-to-leading order (NLO) short-distance QCD…
We provide a comprehensive, up-to-date analysis of possible New Physics contributions to the mass difference $\Delta M_D$ in $D^0$-${\bar D}^0$ mixing. We consider the most general low energy effective Hamiltonian and include leading order…
The thermal effects on the quark-gluon mixed condensate g<\bar{q} \sigma G q>, which is another chiral order parameter, are studied using the SU(3)c lattice QCD with the Kogut-Susskind fermion at the quenched level. We perform the accurate…
The Cornell potential with the best fitted parameters $\alpha_{s}$ and $\kappa$ are modified by adding terms derived from non-perturbative QCD, which are characterized by a series of non-vanishing vacuum condensates of quarks and gluons. In…
We calculated next-to-leading-order (NLO) QCD perturbative contributions to a $J^{PC}=0^{+-}$, $d u\bar d\bar u$ tetraquark (diquark-antidiquark) correlator in the chiral limit of massless $u$ and $d$ quarks. At NLO, there are four quark…
Gaussian QCD sum-rules are ideally suited to the study of mixed states of gluonium (glueballs) and quark ($q\bar q$) mesons because of their capability to resolve widely-separated states of comparable strength. The analysis of the Gaussian…
We start with the QCD sum rules which are originally based on the idea that it is the power-like corrections to the parton model which are related to the confinement. The naive use of the Operator Product Expansion ensures that there is a…
We analyse the impact of systematic effects due to the scale dependence of QCD corrections in combination with the use of different jet clustering algorithms in the measurement of the $W^\pm$ mass in the fully hadronic decay mode of…
The propagation of long-wavelength gluons through a dense QCD medium at high baryon chemical potential mu_B is qualitatively modified by the effects of screening, arising from scatterings off the high-momentum quarks in the medium. This…
We consider the scattering of two color dipoles (e.g., heavy quarkonium states) at low energy - a QCD analog of Van der Waals interaction. Even though the couplings of the dipoles to the gluon field can be described in perturbation theory,…
