We explore the phase diagram of SU(2) Lattice Gauge Theory with dynamical fermions in the temperature, mass, chemical potential space. We observe qualitative changes of the dependence of the particle density on $\mu$ and $T$, which is…
We study the QCD phase diagram, in particular we study the critical points of the two main QCD phase transitions, confinement and chiral symmetry breaking. Confinement drives chiral symmetry breaking, and, due to the finite quark mass, at…

Potential-NRQCD offers an effective-theory based approach to heavy-quark physics. While meson Q-anti_Q computations are tractable in pure alpha_s-perturbation theory, more complex many-body quark systems transcend it. A possibility…
We study the phase diagram of QCD with the help of order parameters for chiral symmetry breaking and quark confinement. We also introduce a new order parameter for the confinement phase transition, which is related to the quark density. It…
A scheme is developed which shows how one would, given a light-front Hamiltonian for QCD, extract the $Q\overline{Q}$ potential, i.e. the quantity which corresponds to the potential between two infinitely heavy quarks in a rest frame, from…
The electric dipole transitions $\chi_{bJ}(1P)\to \gamma\Upsilon(1S)$ with $J=0,1,2$ and $h_{b}(1P)\to \gamma\eta_{b}(1S)$ are computed using the weak-coupling version of a low-energy effective field theory named potential non-relativistic…
