This thesis has been devoted to the study of different properties of hadrons with one and two heavy quarks $c$ and/or $b$. All calculations have been done in the framework of a nonrelativistic constituent quark model. In order to check the…
The hadronic spectrum obtained in the framework of a QCD-inspired schematic model, is presented. The model is the extension of a previous version, whose basic degrees of freedom are constituent quarks and antiquarks, and gluons. The…
We analytically evaluate the expectation value of a baryonic Wilson loop in a holographic model of an SU(3) pure gauge theory. We then discuss three aspects of a static three-quark potential: an aspect of universality which concerns…
Hybrid baryon states are described in quark potential models as having explicit excitation of the gluon degrees of freedom. Such states are described in a model motivated by the strong coupling limit of Hamiltonian lattice gauge theory,…
The static potential constitutes a fundamental quantity of Quantum Chromodynamics. It has recently been evaluated to three-loop accuracy. In this contribution we provide details on the calculation and present results for the 14 master…
We develop a picture of the QCD string as a chain of constituent gluons, bound by attractive nearest-neighbor forces which may be treated perturbatively. This picture accounts for both Casimir scaling at large N, and the asymptotic center…
I report on a lattice computation of the energy of a system of two light quarks and two static antiquarks as a function of the separation of the static antiquarks. In terms of hadrons such a system corresponds to a pair of B mesons and its…

For a moving heavy quark antiquark ($Q\bar{Q}$) in a quark gluon plasma (QGP), we use gauge/gravity duality to study both real and imaginary parts of the potential (Re$V_{Q\bar{Q}}$ and Im$V_{Q\bar{Q}}$ respectively) in a gluon condensate…
We present an investigation of the interquark potential determined from the qq^bar Bethe-Salpeter (BS) amplitude for heavy quarkonia in lattice QCD. The qq^bar potential at finite quark mass m_q can be calculated from the equal-time and…
The perturbative expansion of the pressure of hot QCD is computed here to order g^6ln(g) in the presence of finite quark chemical potentials. In this process all two- and three-loop one-particle irreducible vacuum diagrams of the theory are…

This research is concerned with the inter-particle potentials for few-particle bound state systems in a scalar model with a Higgs-like mediating field and QCD. The variational method, in a reformulated Hamiltonian formalism of QFT, is used…
We present a state-of-the-art determination of the complex valued static quark-antiquark potential at phenomenologically relevant temperatures around the deconfinement phase transition. Its values are obtained from non-perturbative lattice…

In quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the binding energy of an infinitely heavy quark--antiquark pair in a color singlet state can be calculated as a function of the distance. We investigate this static potential of QCD perturbatively and…

Propagation of the heavy quark in the field of a static antiquark source is studied in the framework of effective Dirac equation. The model of QCD vacuum is described by bilocal gluonic correlators. In the heavy quark limit the effective…
