We present results for the static-light meson from unquenched lattice QCD. The unquenched gauge configurations were generated using the non-perturbatively improved clover action. At the fixed lattice spacing of 0.1 fm the lightest sea quark…
We present a new perspective on thermal and quantum phase transitions (QPT) in $(2+1)$-dimensional quantum chromodynamics based on symmetries, topology, and quantum dynamical structure of the baryon ground state in the large $N_c$ limit for…
Under the assumption that a quark-gluon plasma droplet is produced and its evolution can be described by hydrodynamics in p + A collisions, $\gamma$-triggered hadron spectra are studied within a next-to-leading-order perturbative QCD parton…
The quasiparticle finite amplitude method (QFAM) is extended to describe charge-exchange transitions based on the relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov model, adopting the point-coupling energy density functional DD-PC1 and a finite-range…
We consider a class of parametrically forced Hamiltonian systems with one-and-a-half degrees of freedom and study the stability of the dynamics when the frequency of the forcing is relatively high or low. We show that, provided the…
The QCD analytic running coupling alpha_{an} which has no nonphysical singularities for all Q^2>0 is considered for the initial perturbation theory approximations up to four loop order. The finiteness of the analytic coupling at zero is…
We study the static potential of a color singlet quark-antiquark pair with (fixed) distance r in D=3 and D=2 space-time dimensions at weak coupling (alpha r << 1 and g r << 1, respectively). Using the effective theory pNRQCD we determine…
These lecture notes focus on the bound state sector of QCD. Motivated by data which suggests that the strong coupling \alpha_s(Q) freezes at low Q, and by similarities between the spectra of hadrons and atoms, I discuss if and how QCD bound…
We present O(g^4) calculations of both planar and non-planar Wilson loops for various actions in the presence of sea quarks. In particular, the plaquette, the static potential and the static self energy are calculated to this order for…
We investigate a speculative short-distance force, proposed to explain discrepancies observed between measurements of certain neutral current decays of $B$ hadrons and their Standard Model predictions. The force derives from a spontaneously…
The static QCD force from the lattice can be used to extract $\Lambda_{\overline{\textrm{MS}}}$, which determines the running of the strong coupling. Usually, this is done with a numerical derivative of the static potential. However, this…
We make a critical analysis on the free parameters of the Cornell potential $-4\alpha_{s}/3r+br+c$ and provide a parameterisation space for the strong coupling constant $\alpha_{s}$ and the constant shift $c$ for choosing linear part as…
We compare lattice data for the short-distance part of the static energy in 2+1 flavor quantum chromodynamics (QCD) with perturbative calculations, up to next-to-next-to-next-to leading-logarithmic accuracy. We show that perturbation theory…
The strong coupling $\alpha_s$ is extracted with high precision through fits to lattice-QCD data for the static energy. Our theoretical framework is based on R-improving the three-loop fixed-order prediction for the static energy: we remove…
For a three-dimensional theory with a coupling $\phi \epsilon ^{\mu \nu \lambda} v_\mu F_{\nu \lambda}$, where $v_\mu$ is an external constant background, we compute the interaction potential within the structure of the gauge-invariant but…
A QCD based effective action is constructed to describe the dynamics of confinement and symmetry breaking in the process of parton-hadron conversion. The deconfined quark and gluon degrees of freedom of the perturbative QCD vacuum are…
The QCD running coupling costant is studied in the perturbative region, considering the existing experimental data, and also in the nonperurbative region, at low momentum transfer. A continous phenomenological function is determined by…
The power spectrum of fluctuations in the momentum distributions of particles have been estimated with optical Glauber and Monte-Carlo Glauber initial conditions for relativistic heavy ion collisions. The evaluation procedure adopted in…
The running strong coupling $\alpha(Q)_s$ and the gluon propagator from QCD have been compared to similar quantities in the quanton model, a generalisation of QED with massless fermions (quantons) and scalar coupling of boson fields. In the…
The strong coupling $\alpha_s$ is determined with high precision from fits to lattice QCD simulations on the static energy. Our theoretical setup relies on R-improving the three-loop fixed-order prediction for the static energy by removing…
