The light cone QCD sum rules are derived for the $\pi NN$ coupling $g_{\pi NN}$ and $\pi NN(1535)$ coupling $g_{\pi NN^\ast}$. The contribution from the excited states and continuum is subtracted cleanly through double Borel transformation.…
We show that the masses of the lowest-lying heavy baryons can be very well described in a pion mean-field approach. We consider a heavy baryon as a system consisting of the $N_c-1$ light quarks that induce the pion mean field, and a heavy…

In high energy Heavy Ion Collisions, the onset of the quark-gluon plasma is the colour glass condensate, dominated by gluons. The final state is hadronic, and dominated by pions and kaons. Here we investigate an effective approach of QCD…
Lattice QCD calculations with different staggered valence and sea quarks can be used to improve determinations of quark masses, Gasser-Leutwyler couplings, and other parameters relevant to phenomenology. We calculate the masses and decay…

I present a selection of recent lattice data by major collaborations for the pseudo-Goldstone boson masses in full ($N_f=2$) QCD, where the valence quarks are chosen exactly degenerate with the sea quarks. At least the more chiral points…
Hadron masses can be decomposed as a sum of components which are defined through hadronic matrix elements of QCD operators. The components consist of the quark mass term, the quark energy term, the glue energy term and the trace anomaly…
In the present paper we investigate classical dynamics of the Nambu-Goto string with the Gauss-Bonnet term in the action and point-like masses at the ends in the context of effective QCD string. The configurations of rigidly rotating string…
We discuss aspects of a covariant QCD modeling of meson physics by illustrating applications to several coupling constants and form factors. In particular, we cover the $\rho\pi\pi$ and $\pi^0 \gamma \gamma$ interactions, the $\rho$…
We compute the pion light-cone wave function and the pion quark distribution amplitude in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. We use the Pauli-Villars regularization method and as a result the distribution amplitude satisfies proper normalization…
The parton structure of the nucleon and pion is investigated in an exploratory model that allows one to assess whether the dressing of quarks can, by itself, produce realistic gluon contributions to light-cone momentum fractions,…
