A phenomenological estimate is derived such that the binding energies of dimesons are expressed as combinations of masses of different mesons and baryons. The estimate is almost model-independent, the only major assumptions being that the…
The quark condensate is calculated in terms of the effective string tension and the constituent quark mass. For 3 colors and 2 light flavors, the constituent mass is bounded from below by the value of 460 MeV. This value is only accessible…
The binding energy spectra of the heavy quarkonia are calculated by solving the Schr\"odinger equations with Coulomb plus confining potentials. Statistical properties of the obtained spectra are studied by plotting nearest level spacing…
The effective quark Lagrangian is written for a light quark in the field of a static antiquark, explicitly containing field correlators as coefficient functions of products of quark operators. At large N_c the closed system of equations for…
The static gluon-quark-antiquark interaction is investigated using lattice QCD techniques. A Wilson loop adequate to the static hybrid three-body system is developed and, using a $24^3 \times 48$ periodic lattice with $\beta = 6.2$, the…
Recent lattice calculations on the interaction energy of two heavy-light mesons (Q^2\bar{q}^2) are interpreted in terms of the potential of the corresponding single heavy-light meson (Q\bar{q}). This model leads to a large overestimate of…
The confining string in presence of dynamical quarks can behave in different ways, depending on the quark masses and on the number N_f N_c of charge species. For light masses and large N_f N_c the creation of quark pairs produces…
We study the relationship between the entanglement, mixedness and energy of two-qubit and two-mode Gaussian quantum states. We parametrize the set of allowed states of these two fundamentally different physical systems using measures of…
A model for string breaking on the lattice is formulated using strong coupling ideas. It gives an explicit picture of string breaking, in the presence of dynamical quarks, as a mixing process between a string state and a two-meson state. An…
The possibility of $QQ\bar{q}\bar{q}$ heavy-light four-quark bound states has been analyzed by means of the chiral SU(3) quark model, where $Q$ is the heavy quark ($c$ or $b$) and $q$ is the light quark ($u$, $d$ or $s$). We obtain a bound…
The dynamics of two heavy quarks inside the same hadron is probed against the double charm baryon results of SELEX. This can be seen as a part of the mechanism to bind tetraquarks with two heavy quarks and two light antiquarks. In the…
We investigate the dynamics of a kicked particle in an infinite square well undergoing frequent measurements of energy. For a large class of periodic kicking force, constant diffusion is found in such a non-KAM system. The influence of…
First results of an ongoing high statistics study of the colour flux distribution around static quark sources in SU(2) gauge theory are presented. The flux tube profiles and widths have been investigated for several quark separations at…
The QCD string model is employed to evaluate the masses of orbitally and radially excited heavy-light mesons and lightest hybrids in the spectrum of charmonium and bottomonium. The number of parameters of the model is reduced to only seven…
The 4He3 system is investigated using a hard-core version of the Faddeev differential equations and realistic 4He-4He interactions. We calculate the binding energies of the 4He trimer but concentrate in particular on scattering observables.…
We extend a previous numerical study of SU(3) Yang-Mills theory in which we measured the spatial distribution of all components of the color fields surrounding a static quark-antiquark pair for a wide range of quark-antiquark separations,…
For over 50 years attempts have been made to explain the properties of nuclear matter in terms of constituent nucleons with very little success. Here we will investigate one class of many possible models, string-flip potential models, in…
At the heart of quark confinement and hadronization, the physics of flux strings has recently become a focal point in the field of quantum simulation of high-energy physics (HEP). Despite considerable progress, a detailed understanding of…
A detailed study is made of four dimensional SU(2) gauge theory with static adjoint ``quarks'' in the context of string breaking. A tadpole-improved action is used to do simulations on lattices with coarse spatial spacings $a_s$, allowing…
Analysing two models of four-quark interactions which are of intrinsic difference in the behaviours of their correlation lengths some issues of quark condensations are considered. It is demonstrated that the quark condensates substantially…
