Effective field theories provide a bridge between QCD and nuclear physics. I discuss light nuclei from this perspective, emphasizing the role of fine-tuning.
Recent developments and selected topics in low-energy QCD are summarized, from chiral effective field theory to systems with strange and charm quarks, from lattice QCD to precision experiments.
I present a concise review of where we stand in particle physics today. First, I will discuss QCD, then the electroweak sector and finally the motivations and the avenues for new physics beyond the Standard Model.
Using the theory talks at ISMD2010 as a guidance, I present a personal review of our current understanding of multiparticle interactions in QCD. For more clarity, I separately consider hard, semi-hard, and soft interactions, and I devote…
Developments reported at the 2007 Moriond Workshop on QCD and Hadronic Interactions are reviewed and placed in a theoretical context.
We summarize the recent results on electroweak physics and physics beyond the Standard Model that have been presented at the XIV International Workshop on Deep Inelastic Scattering 2006.
This is a brief review of some of the basic concepts of perturbative QCD, including infrared safety and factorization, relating them to more familiar ideas from quantum mechanics and relativity. It is intended to offer perspective on…
These lectures on QCD stress the theoretical elements that underlie a wide range of phenomenological studies, particularly gauge invariance, renormalization, factorization and infrared safety. The three parts cover the basics of QCD, QCD at…
We study the incorporation of QCD effects in the basic electroweak corrections \drcar, \drcarw, and \dr. They include perturbative \Ord{\alpha\alpha_s} contributions and $t\bar{t}$ threshold effects. The latter are studied in the resonance…
Understanding the properties of atomic nuclei and nuclear dynamics from QCD remains a major challenge. Complementary to first attempts along these lines based on lattice QCD, an effective field theory approach has been developed in the past…

Gauge field configurations appropriate for the infrared region of QCD are proposed. Using the usual QCD action, confinement is realized as in the London theory of Meissner effect.
The accurate theoretical treatment of low-energy electro-weak processes in lightest nuclei is of great current importance not only in the context of nuclear physics {\it per se} but also from the astrophysical and particle-physics…
Lecture notes with a brief introduction to Quantum field theory and the Standard Model are presented. The lectures were given at the 2017 European School of High-Energy Physics. The main features, the present status, and problems of the…
In this review article, we present the recent theoretical developments and some breakthrough experiments in cavity QED systems (optical and optomechanical systems) and also focus on the experimental realization of the theoretical proposals.
I review the basics of perturbative QCD, including infrared divergences and safety, collinear and $k_T$ factorization theorems, and various evolution equations and resummation techniques for single- and double-logarithmic corrections. I…
We review the most recent results, derived within the combined framework of the pinch technique and the background field method, describing certain QCD nonperturbative properties.

The concept of color transparency is introduced. This new feature of QCD is characteristic of a gauge theory. It enables strong interactions to be studied in a new domain: scattering amplitudes of transversally small color singlet objects.…
