We perform the quenched lattice QCD analysis on the nuclear force (baryon-baryon interactions). We employ $20^3\times 24$ lattice at $\beta=5.7$ ($a\simeq 0.19$ fm) with the standard gauge action and the Wilson quark action with the hopping…
Electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon from relativistic quark models are analyzed: results from null-plane projection of the Feynman triangle diagram are compared with a Bakamjian-Thomas model. The magnetic form factors of the models…

A quantum theory of noncommutative fields was recently proposed by Carmona, Cortez, Gamboa and Mendez (hep-th/0301248). The implications of the noncommutativity of the fields, intended as the requirements…
We set constraints on O(E/M) Lorentz Violation in QED in an effective field theory framework. A major consequence of such assumptions is the modification of the dispersion relations for electrons/positrons and photons, which in turn can…
We calculate the kaon $B$-parameter in quenched lattice QCD at $\beta=6.0$ using Wilson fermions at $\kappa=0.154$ and $0.155$. We use two kinds of non-local (``smeared'') sources for quark propagators to calculate the matrix elements…
We give some general arguments in favor of the large magnitude of matrix elements of an operator associated with nonvalence quarks in heavy hadrons. We estimate a strange matrix element for \Lambda_b baryon whose valence content is b, u, d…
We calculate the Fuglede-Kadison determinant of arbitrary matrix-valued semicircular operators in terms of the capacity of the corresponding covariance mapping. We also improve a lower bound by Garg, Gurvits, Oliveira, and Widgerson on this…

A major objective of lattice QCD is the computation of hadronic matrix elements. The standard method is to use three-point and four-point correlation functions. An alternative approach, requiring only the computation of two-point…
In the heavy-quark limit, the hadronic matrix elements entering nonleptonic $B$-meson decays into two light mesons can be calculated from first principles including ``nonfactorizable'' strong-interaction corrections. The $B\to\pi K,\pi\pi$…
