We describe a new approach to heavy-quark fragmentation which is based on a resummed perturbative calculation and parametrization of power corrections, concentrating on the z -> 1 limit, where the heavy meson carries a large fraction of the…
A recent general analysis of light-baryon isospin splittings is updated and extended to charmed baryons. The measured $\Sigma_c$ and $\Xi_c$ splittings stand out as being difficult to understand in terms of two-body forces alone. We also…
The six independent formfactors describing the weak decay \semi\ are determined in terms of one universal function when both the $b$ and $c$ quarks are treated as heavy. The relations between these formfactors are modified by terms…
We present and analyze a natural hierarchy of weak theories, develop analysis in them, and show that they are interpretable in bounded quantifier arithmetic $\text{I}\Delta_0$ (and hence in Robinson arithmetic Q). The strongest theories…
The total cross section for top quark pair production close to threshold in e+e- annihilation is investigated. Details are given about the calculation at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic order. The summation of logarithms leads to a…
We consider a cut isogeometric method, where the boundary of the domain is allowed to cut through the background mesh in an arbitrary fashion for a second order elliptic model problem. In order to stabilize the method on the cut boundary we…
Branching ratios and polarization amplitudes for B decaying to all allowed pseudoscalar, vector, axial-vector, scalar and tensor combinations of D_s and D mesons are calculated in the Isgur Scora Grinstein Wise (ISGW) quark model after…
We study the effect of the resummation of logarithms for t\bar{t} production near threshold and inclusive electromagnetic decays of heavy quarkonium. This analysis is complete at next-to-next-to-leading order and includes the full…
In previous work it has been shown that, either from a sum rule for the subleading Isgur-Wise function $\xi_3(1)$ or from a combination of Uraltsev and Bjorken SR, one infers for $P$-wave states $|\tau_{1/2}(1)| \ll |\tau_{3/2}(1)|$. This…
In communication field, an important issue is to group users and base stations to as many as possible subnetworks satisfying certain interference constraints. These problems are usually formulated as a graph partition problems which…
We present a factorization framework that takes into account the production of heavy quarks through gluon splitting in the thrust distribution for e+ e- --> hadrons. The explicit factorization theorems and some numerical results are…
This paper is the extension of our previous work entitled Searching a systematics for nonfactorizable contributions to and hadronic decays. Obtaining the factorizable contributions from the spectator quark model for a systematics has been…
We develop a new nonrelativistic effective field theory of $\rho$NRQCD [1] to describe the finite lifetime effects in the threshold production of top quark-antiquark pairs. The theory is based on the expansion in a parameter…
The heavy-to-heavy exclusive semileptonic transitions of singly heavy baryons (SHBs) are investigated within the framework of the Hypercentral Constituent Quark Model (hCQM). The six-dimensional hyperradial Schr\"{o}dinger equation is…
We show that the sum rule recently proved by Uraltsev in the heavy quark limit of QCD holds in relativistic quark models \`a la Bakamjian and Thomas, that were already shown to satisfy Isgur-Wise scaling and Bjorken sum rule. This new sum…
This work is devoted in the derivation of novel upper and lower bounds for the Rice $Ie$-function. These bounds are expressed in closed-form and are shown to be quite tight. This is particularly evident by the fact that for a certain range…
We present preliminary results from simulations done on 170 $32^3 \times 64$ lattices at $\beta = 6.0$ using quenched Wilson fermions. This talk focuses on the $Q^2$ behavior of the form-factors, extrapolation in quark masses, dependence on…
We review some recent theoretical progresses towards the determination of the top-quark couplings beyond the standard model. We briefly introduce the global effective field theory approach to the top-quark production and decay processes,…
We present results from a study of meson spectra and structure in the limit where one quark is infinitely heavy. The calculations, based on the framework of light-front QCD formulated on a transverse lattice, are the first non-perturbative…
The next-to-leading order analysis for the cross section for hadroproduction of top quark pairs close to threshold is presented. Within the framework of non-relativistic QCD a significant enhancement compared to fixed order perturbation…
