A confirmation of the long-standing muon $g$-2 discrepancy requires both experimental and theoretical progress. On the theory side, the hadronic corrections are under close scrutiny, as they induce the leading uncertainty of the Standard…

Relativistic heavy ion physics studies the phenomena that occur when a very large (in units of QCD scale $\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$) amount of energy is deposited into a large (in units of $\Lambda^{-3}_{\rm QCD}$) volume, creating an extended in…
COMPASS is a multi-purpose fixed-target experiment at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron investigating the structure and spectrum of hadrons. One primary goal is the search for new hadronic states, in particular spin-exotic mesons and…
Electroweak precision tests of the SM and MSSM as well as searches for Supersymmetric Particles and Higgs bosons at LEP II and their significance within the MSSM are discussed. Invited talk presented at the EPIPHANY Conf. in Cracow, Jan.…
Plasmonics, the science and technology of the interaction of light with metallic objects, is fundamentally changing the way we can detect, generate and manipulate light. Although the field is progressing swiftly, thanks to the availability…
An adiabatic approximation is used to derive the binding potential between two heavy-light mesons in quenched SU(2)-colour lattice QCD. Analysis of the meson-meson system shows that the potential is attractive at short- and medium-range.…
