The system of light quark and heavy antiquark source is studied in 1+1 QCD in the large N_C limit. The situation is demonstrated to be the two dimensional analogue of the problem in 3+1 QCD corresponding to the essentially nonlocal case of…
In this talk, an SU(Nf)xSU(Nf)Yang-Mills model with a compact extra-dimension is used to describe the spin-1 mesons and pions of massless QCD in the large-Nc. The right 4D symmetry and symmetry-breaking pattern is produced by imposing…
Tau decays into hadrons have a twofold interest: On the one hand, they are a clean environment for studying the hadronization of the left-handed current of QCD, while, on the other side, provide relevant dynamical information of the…
A thermal Finite Energy QCD Sum Rule is used to determine the temperature behaviour of the $\omega \rho \pi$ strong coupling. This coupling decreases with increasing $T$ and vanishes at the critical temperature, a likely signal for quark…

The transition form factor, decay width and charge form factor of pion are calculated within the model of induced nonlocal quark currents based on the assumption that the nonperturbative QCD vacuum can be characterized by a homogeneous…
The nonleptonic heavy meson decays $B\to D^{(*)}\pi(\rho), J/\psi K^{(*)}$ and $D\to K^{(*)}\pi$ are studied based on the three-scale perturbative QCD factorization theorem developed recently. In this formalism the Bauer-Stech-Wirbel…
We study the decays $\pi^{+}\to l^{+}\nu_{l}$ in the presence of a background electromagnetic plane wave with circular polarization. We find that, in the presence of this background, the number of hadronic form factors required to describe…
Evaluation of Borelized QCD sum rules in the so-called local-duality limit of infinitely large Borel mass parameter provides an alternate route for extraction of the dependence of the decay constants of heavy-light mesons on the mass $m_q$…
In this paper we evaluate strong decay amplitudes and partial widths of strange mesons (strangeonia and kaonia) in the 3P0 decay model. We give numerical results for all energetically allowed open-flavor two-body decay modes of all nsbar…
In this study, the strong coupling constants of the unobserved heavy axial tensor mesons to the heavy vector and pseudoscalar $\pi$ and $K$ mesons, $D_2 D^* \pi$, $D_{s2} D^* K$, $B_2 B^* \pi$, $B_{s2} B^* K$ as well as a heavy axial tensor…
The ladder-rainbow truncation of the set of Dyson-Schwinger equations is used to study light mesons. The parameters in the effective interaction are constrained by the chiral condensate and f_\pi; the current quark masses are fitted to…
We discuss strategies to determine hadronic decay couplings from lattice studies. As an application, we explore the decay of a vector meson to two pseudoscalar mesons with $N_f=2$ flavours of sea quark. Although we are working with quark…
We investigate the 2-flavor QCD with non-degenerate quark masses at low-energy, using the chiral perturbation theory including the $\eta$ meson and anomaly effects. For the fixed $m_d\not=0$, the neutral pion becomes massless at two values…
We discuss applications of gauge/gravity duality to describe the spectrum of light hadrons. We compare two particular 5-dimensional approaches: a model with an infrared deformed Anti-de Sitter metric and another one based on a dynamical…
A theory of tau mesonic decays is proposed. The general formula of the axial-vector currents of mesons is presented. The meson vertices are obtained from an effective chiral theory of mesons. The vertices depend on momentum. Many decay…
We analyze the vacuum structure of N=2, SU(2) QCD with massive quark hypermultiplets, once supersymmetry is softly broken down to N=0 with dilaton and mass spurions. We give general expressions for the low energy couplings of the effective…
The pure leptonic or semileptonic character of tau decays makes them a good laboratory to test the structure of the weak currents and the universality of their couplings to the gauge bosons. The hadronic tau decay modes constitute an ideal…
