In a style of popular article, we discuss models of hadronic structure and their relation with models of the QCD vacuum and lattice simulations. Borrowing two main characters from G.Gamow, Mr.Thompson and Professor, we make a travel in the…
Lattice QCD determinations appropriate to hadron spectroscopy are reviewed with emphasis on the glueball and hybrid meson states in the quenched approximation. Hybrids are discussed for heavy and for light quarks. The effects of sea quarks…
This thesis deals with the study of properties and interactions of light mesons. Specifically, we focus on hadronic decay and scattering processes, which are dominated by effects of the strong interaction in the low-energy regime. A…
A microscopic model of deconfined matter based on color interactions between semi-classical quarks is studied. A hadronization mechanism is imposed to examine the properties and the disassembly of a thermalized quark plasma and to…
I give a brief comment on the LHCb's discovery of $P_c$ and $P_{cs}$ pentaquark states. These pentaquark states not only reveal a new kind of hadronic molecules, but also shed new light on the possible structure of pentaquark components in…

Using gauge invariant hadronic two- and three- density correlators we extract information on the spatial distributions of quarks in hadrons, and on hadron shape and multipole moments within quenched lattice QCD. Combined with the…
A brief review is given of the lattice QCD calculation of the hadron spectrum. The status of current attempts toward inclusion of dynamical up, down and strange quarks is summarized focusing on our own work. Recent work on the possible…

We review some aspects of weak decays of hadrons containing one heavy quark. The main emphasis is on $B$ physics, in particular in the framework of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory.
For a long time, investigation into the weak interactions of quarks has guided us toward understanding the Standard Model we know today. Now in the era of high precision, these studies are still one of the most promising avenues for peering…
Weak decays and mixing of B-hadrons play a special role in our understanding of the physics of the Standard Model and beyond. The measured amplitudes, however, result from a complicated interplay of weak and strong interaction effects.…
