We propose a string theory construction for the system of two heavy quarks and two light antiquarks. The potential of the system is a function of separation between the quarks. We define a critical separation distance below which the system…
Masses of the p-wave excited heavy baryons have been calculated to the Lambda_{QCD}/m_Q order using QCD sum rule method within the framework of heavy quark effective theory. Numerical results for kinetic energy lambda_1 and chromo-magnetic…

We evaluate the static $qq\bar{q}\bar{q}$ and $qqqq\bar{q}$ potentials in the quenched theory at $\beta=5.8$ and $\beta=6.0$ on a lattice of size $16^3\times 32$. We compare the static potentials to the sum of two meson potentials for the…

We study the pair description of heavy tetraquark systems $|QQ\bar Q \bar Q\rangle$ in the frame of a non-relativistic potential model. By taking the two heavy quark pairs $(Q\bar Q)$ as colored clusters, the four-quark Schr\"odinger…

Low energy precision experiments provide significant tests of the laws of nature that can reveal physics beyond the Standard Model. A good theoretical understanding of the low energy properties of QCD is required for this purpose. The…
We explore the compact U(1) lattice gauge theory with staggered fermions and gauge field action -\sum_P [\beta \cos(\Theta_P) + \gamma \cos(2\Theta_P)], both for dynamical fermions and in the quenched approximation. (\Theta_P denotes the…
I describe the recent success in performing accurate calculations of the effects of the strong force on particles containing bottom and charm quarks. Since quarks are never seen in isolation, and so cannot be studied directly, numerical…
Measurements and theoretical calculations of meson form factors are essential for our understanding of internal hadron structure and QCD, the dynamics that bind the quarks in hadrons. The pion electromagnetic form factor has been measured…
