The electronic structures of the Heusler type compounds Fe$_{3-x}V$_x$Si in the concentration range between x = 0 and x = 1 have been probed by photoemission spectroscopy (PES). The observed shift of Si 2p core- level and the main valence…
We study the diffractive electroproduction of quarkonia from quark-antiquark-gluon states in the photon wave function. We show that these states contribute to the leading-power and leading-logarithm level. We suggest the measurement of…
We study the $D_s^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \, \pi^+ \, \pi^-$ and $D_s^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \, K^+ \, K^-$ decays adopting a mechanism in which the $D_s^+$ meson decays weakly into a $\pi^+$ and a $q\bar{q}$ component, which hadronizes into two…
The structure functions of real and virtual photons are derived from cross section measurements of the reaction e^+e^ -> e^+e^- + hadrons at LEP. The reaction is studied at \sqrt{s} ~ 91 GeV with the L3 detector. One of the final state…
We fit lattice-QCD data for light-pseudoscalar masses and decay constants, from HISQ configurations generated by MILC, to SU(3) staggered chiral perturbation theory. At present such fits have rather high values of chi^2/d.o.f., possibly due…
The diffractive dissociation of 500 GeV/c $\pi^-$ into di-jets is described as a way to measure the momentum distribution of quarks in the pion. The measurements of the pion diffractive dissociation were carried out using data from Fermilab…

We calculate diffractive photo- and leptoproduction of $\rho$-, $\rho'$- and $\rho''$-mesons. The incoming photon dissociates into a $q\bar{q}$-dipole which scatters on the nucleon and transforms into a vector meson state. The scattering…
We extend the formalism for the low-energy analysis of the $\gamma p\rightarrow K^{+}\pi\Sigma$ photoproduction reaction to include the strangeness $S=-1$ meson-baryon p-wave final-state interaction with total angular momentum…
We report here differential cross sections for the reaction $\gamma p \to K^{*0}\Sigma^+$ for the first time with high statistics. The measurements were done using the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab. Data were…
The MILC collaboration has been performing realistic simulations of full QCD with 2+1 flavors of improved staggered quarks. Our simulations allow for controlled continuum and chiral extrapolations. I present results for the light…
We present new results for light quark masses. The calculations are performed using two flavours of $O(a)$ improved Wilson fermions. We have reached lattice spacings as small as $a \sim 0.07$fm and pion masses down to $m_{\pi} \sim 340$MeV…
Two new excited states, $\Omega_c(3185)^0$ and $\Omega_c(3327)^0$, are observed in the $\Xi_c^{+}K^{-}$ invariant-mass spectrum using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity…

A unitary coupled-channel effective Lagrangian model is applied to the combined analysis of the $(\pi,\gamma) N \to K\Lambda$ reactions in the energy region up to 2 GeV. To constrain the resonance couplings to the $K\Lambda$ final state the…
Rare $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ decays provide some of the most sensitive tests of the Standard Model and require precise and systematically improvable hadronic input from lattice QCD. For the phenomenologically important channel $B\to…
