We discuss a finite-plasticity model based on the symmetric tensor $P^T P$ instead of the classical plastic strain $P$. Such a model structure arises from assuming that the material behavior is invariant with respect to frame…
We study the effects of final state interactions on the eta(b) => J/psi J/psi decay. In particular, we discuss the effects of the annihilation of eta(b) into two charmed meson and their rescattering into J/psi J/psi. We find that the…

A model for the twist-3 wave function $\psi_p(x,\mathbf{k_\perp})$ of the pion has been constructed based on the moment calculation by applying the QCD sum rules, whose distribution amplitude has a better end-point behavior than that of the…
We employ a dispersion relation that allows to recover the phase of the electromagnetic form factor of the pion from its absolute value above threshold. Compared to alternative approaches building on the phase, this approach builds on…

We have studied elliptic flow ($v_{2}$) of $\phi$-mesons in the framework of a multi phase transport (AMPT) model at LHC energy. In the realms of AMPT model we observe $\phi$-mesons at intermediate transverse momentum ($p_{T}$) deviate from…

We study the correlation between the trigger $\pi$ and the associated $J/\psi$ on near and away sides in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV. In the region of trigger momentum $p_t>4$ GeV/$c$, the $\pi$ spectrum is composed of…
In high energy collisions saturation and multiple collisions are most easily accounted for in transverse coordinate space, while analyses in momentum space have been more suitable for calculating properties of exclusive final states. In…
The NA50 collaboration has recently observed that the J/psi production rate in Pb-Pb collisions decreases more rapidly as a function of the transverse energy for the most central collisions than for less central ones. We show that this…
We propose a new method to obtain the K -> pi pi amplitude from K -> pi which allows one to fully account for the effects of final state interactions. The method is based on a set of dispersion relations for the K -> pi pi amplitude in…
