We study two- and three-meson systems composed either of pions or kaons at maximal isospin using Monte Carlo simulations of lattice QCD. Utilizing the stochastic LapH method, we are able to determine hundreds of two- and three-particle…
The lattice data on the instanton size distribution suggest an additional O($\rho^2)$ action. The small-$\rho$ effect O($\rho^4)$ predicted by the Operator Product Expansion (OPE) is not observed. Similar deviations are also found for…

The non-perturbative parton distributions in hadrons are derived from simple physical arguments resulting in an analytical expression for the valence parton distributions. The sea partons arise mainly from pions in hadronic fluctuations.…

Measurements and theoretical calculations of meson form factors are essential for our understanding of internal hadron structure and QCD, the dynamics that bind the quarks in hadrons. The pion electromagnetic form factor has been measured…
Isospin symmetry is explicitly broken in the Standard Model by the mass and electric charge of the up and down quarks. These effects represent a perturbation of hadronic amplitudes at the percent level. Although these contributions are…

We project onto the light-front the pion's Poincare'-covariant Bethe-Salpeter wave-function, obtained using two different approximations to the kernels of QCD's Dyson-Schwinger equations. At an hadronic scale both computed results are…
We examine diffractive proton-proton scattering. Using a functional integral approach we derive the scattering amplitudes, which are governed by the expectation value of lightlike Wegner-Wilson loops. This expectation value is then…
Both the mass spectra and the wave functions of the light pseudoscalar ($\pi,K,\eta,\eta'$) and vector($\rho,K^{*},\omega,\phi$) mesons are analyzed within the framework of the light-cone constituent quark model. A gaussian radial wave…
This work addresses more to the technical rather than to the physical problem, how to calculate analytically the form factor $F(Q)$, the associated mean-square radius $<r^2>$, and the distribution function $\Phi(x,Q^2)$ for a given…
The Lorentz contracted form of the static wave functions is used to calculate the valence parton distributions for mesons and baryons, boosting the rest frame solutions of the path integral Hamiltonian. It is argued that nonperturbative…
