We determine the strange and light quark condensates in full lattice QCD for the first time. This is done by direct calculation of the expectation value of the trace of the quark propagator followed by subtraction of the appropriate…
We report on the EMMI Rapid Reaction Task Force meeting 'Resonances in QCD', which took place at GSI October 12-14, 2015. A group of 26 people met to discuss the physics of resonances in QCD. The aim of the meeting was defined by the…
We present a lattice QCD determination of the average up-down, strange and charm quark masses based on simulations performed by the European Twisted Mass Collaboration with $N_f = 2 + 1 + 1$ dynamical fermions. We simulated at three…
We will report on the status of a new large scale calculation of thermodynamic quantities in QCD with light up and down quarks corresponding to an almost physical light quark mass value and a heavier strange quark mass. These calculations…
The $DD^*$ scattering phase shifts in the $T_{cc}^+=cc\bar{u}\bar{d}$ channel are extracted from lattice QCD for five different charm quark masses and a fixed light-quark mass corresponding to $m_\pi\simeq 280$~MeV. The phase shifts are…
The chiral and heavy quark symmetries of QCD are reviewed. These symmetries are used to predict some low-momentum properties of hadrons containing a single heavy quark. (Lectures given at the CCAST Symposium on Particle Physics at the Fermi…

In these proceedings we present preliminary results for the masses of the proton, neutron and $\Omega^-$ baryons obtained from QCD+QED lattice simulations performed with four dynamical quarks using C$^*$ boundary conditions. These results…
We present estimates of light quarks masses using lattice data. Our main results are based on a global analysis of all the published data for Wilson and Staggered fermions, both in the quenched approximation and with $n_f=2$ dynamical…
Low luminosity runs at higher LHC energy could provide definitive evidence for an electroweak scale sextet quark sector of QCD that produces electroweak symmetry breaking and dark matter within the bound-state S-Matrix of QUD - a massless,…
Recent lattice measurements have given accurate estimates of the light and strange quark condensates in the proton. We use these new results to significantly improve the dark matter predictions in a set of benchmark models that represent…

We search for possibly existent bound states in the heavy-light tetraquark channels with quark content $ \bar{b}\bar{b}ud $, $ \bar{b}\bar{b}us $ and $ \bar{b}\bar{c}ud $ using lattice QCD. We carry out calculations on several gauge link…
The light scalar meson spectrum is studied using the improved ladder QCD with the UA(1) breaking Kobayashi-Maskawa-'t Hooft interaction by solving the Schwinger-Dyson and Bethe-Salpeter equations. The dynamically generated…

We study the possibility that the light scalar mesons are (qbar qbar q q) states rather than (qbar q). We perform a lattice QCD calculation of pseudoscalar meson scattering amplitudes, ignoring quark loops and quark annihilation, and find…
Recent developments in lattice QCD calculation of weak matrix elements involving light quarks are described. We focus on four topics: $B_K$ with the Kogut-Susskind and Wilson quark actions, $\Delta I=1/2$ rule, proton decay matrix elements…
