We study excited states of the nucleon in quenched lattice QCD with the spectral analysis using the maximum entropy method. Our simulations are performed on three lattice sizes $16^3\times 32$, $24^3\times 32$ and $32^3\times 32$, at…

Bound upsilon states and their decays provide a unique laboratory for testing QCD, LQCD, and quarkonium potential models. I review recent results, some of which are significant improvements in precision over previous measurements and others…
