By fitting the two-point correlation functions of topological charge density operators calculated on two $2+1$-flavor gauge ensembles with physical pion mass, we determine both the $\eta$ and $\eta'$ masses and also the mixing angle to be…

We present a lattice calculation of the $\eta$ and $\eta^{\prime}$ meson masses at the physical point and in the continuum limit, based on $N_f = 2+1+1$ flavors of rooted staggered quarks. Our analysis includes gauge ensembles at the…

Two-body bound states such as mesons are described by solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation. We discuss recent results for the pseudoscalar and vector meson masses and leptonic decay constants, ranging from pions up to c\bar{c} bound…

We discuss the role of QCD symmetries and confinement in understanding eta and etaprime mesic nuclei. Eta and etaprime bound states in nuclei are sensitive to the flavour-singlet component in the meson. The bigger the singlet component, the…

We report on the first lattice determination of the pseudoscalar meson $\eta_c$ light-cone distribution amplitude, using a set of three CLS $N_f=2$ ensembles at a pion mass $m_{\pi} \sim 270~\text{MeV}$ and lattice spacings $a \sim…

We study the ground states of low-density hadronic matter and high-density color-flavor locked color superconducting phase in three-flavor QCD at finite baryon chemical potential under rotation. We find that, in both cases under…

We show that color can leak from a QCD bag if we allow for pseudoscalar isoscalar singlet ($\eta'$) coupling at the surface. To enforce total confinement of color an additional boundary term is suggested. New relations between the $\eta'$…
