We survey the current status of light meson spectroscopy. We begin with a general introduction to meson spectroscopy and and its importance in understanding the physical states of Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD). Phemenological models of…
The ${q}\bar{q}$ spectrum is studied within a chiral constituent quark model. It provides with a good fit of the available experimental data from light (vector and pseudoscalar) to heavy mesons including some recent results on charmonium.…
Uncertainties in the next-to-leading-order calculations of heavy-quark ($Q$) production are investigated. Predictions for total cross sections, single-inclusive distributions of heavy quarks and heavy flavoured hadrons, as well as for…
Studies of hadronic final states are entering a new phase where very precise experimental measurements require better theoretical predictions for a meaningful comparison. Recent results and future developments are briefly reviewed both for…
The notion of a macroscopic quantum state must be pinned down in order to assess how well experiments probe the large-scale limits of quantum mechanics. However, the issue of quantifying so-called quantum macroscopicity is fraught with…
We study theoretically the structure and formation of the deeply bound $\bar{p}$ atoms. We find that the widths of the atomic states are narrower than the level spacing even for deeply bound states so that the well-isolated deeply bound…
Understanding the behavior of dense hadronic matter is a central goal in nuclear physics as it governs the nature and dynamics of astrophysical objects such as supernovae and neutron stars. Because of the non-perturbative nature of quantum…
We study the electron states of a chain of non-identical, vertically stacked quantum dots (QDs). We discuss how the pseudo-band formed of the ground states confined in the QDs disintegrates upon increasing the inhomogeneity of the electron…
The model of unstable particles with random mass is suggested to describe the finite-width effects. The phenomenological manifestation of mass smearing is discussed in the framework of the model.
We discuss possibility of upper-bounding dimension of quantum states device-independently. Provided that the states are pure, it is possible to generate certain four states whose dimension is bounded by two.
Masses for the $(Q\bar{s})^{(*)}(\bar{Q}s)^{(*)}$ ($Q=c$ or $b$) molecular states are systematically computed in the framework of QCD sum rules. Technically, contributions of the operators up to dimension six are included in operator…
We discuss recent theoretical developments in the context of charmed exotics with special emphasis on hadronic molecules. Especially we discuss, how these could be identified from experimental as well as lattice QCD observables.
A phenomenological QCD quasiparticle model provides a means to map lattice QCD results to regions relevant for a variety of heavy-ion collision experiments at larger baryon density. We report on effects of collectives modes and damping on…
We study a motion of quantum particles, whose properties depend on one coordinate so that they can move freely in the perpendicular direction. A rotationally-symmetric Hamiltonian is derived and applied to study a general interface formed…
The existence of flavor exotic $QQ\bar{q}\bar{q}$ molecular-type states is investigated. An attractive force between two {\it pseudoscalar} $H = (Q\bar{q})$ heavy meson is generated by (correlated) two-pion exchange. The emergence of a…
Heavy quark bound states are used as significative probes of the QCD vacuum and the mechanism of confinement.
We define the algorithmic complexity of a quantum state relative to a given precision parameter, and give upper bounds for various examples of states. We also establish a connection between the entanglement of a quantum state and its…
The uncertainty associated with probing the quantum state is expressed as the effective abundance (measure) of possibilities for its collapse. New kinds of uncertainty limits entailed by quantum description of the physical system arise in…
Revisiting the QCD sum-rule description of exotic hadron states, we argue that, in order to arrive at trustable analyses of, for instance, strong decay widths of multiquarks, it is inevitable to adopt the QCD sum-rule approach beyond the…
We perform a calculation of quantum electrodynamics effects in excited states with $l>1$ of arbitrary two-body systems up to $\alpha^6\,\mu$ order. The obtained results are valid for hadronic atoms, as long as the strong interaction effects…
