Utilizing a quark model characterized by parameters that effectively replicate the masses of ground state hadrons, we illustrate that $(us)$ or $(ds)$ diquarks exhibit greater compactness in comparison to $(ud)$ diquarks. Concretely, the…

In this thesis a model framework for describing baryons as diquark-quark bound states is presented which is formulated in an explicitly covariant manner. The relativistic bound state problem for three quarks is considered. Diquarks are…
We study the interesting problem of interaction and identification of the hadronic molecules which seem to be deuteron-like structure. In particular, we propose a binding mechanism in which One Boson Exchange Potential plus Yukawa…
We study the stability of hexaquark systems containing two heavy quarks and four light quarks within a simple quark model. No bound or metastable state is found. The reason stems on a delicate interplay between chromoelectric and…
Low-energy fermionic excitations in two-dimensional materials deviate from the conventional Schr\"odinger description and are instead governed by Dirac equations. Such Dirac fermions give rise to a variety of unconventional quantum…
