We calculate the second order corrections to vacuum polarization tensor of photons at low temperatures, i.e; T $\le 10^{10}$ K ($T << m_e$). The thermal contributions to the QED coupling constant are evaluated at temperatures below the…
The possible in-medium changes of the properties of an omega meson placed in cold nuclear matter are constrained by QCD sum rules. It is shown that the sum rules cannot fully determine the in-medium spectral shape of the omega meson.…

Using lattice simulations, we show that there is a phase of thermal QCD, where the spectral density $\rho(\lambda)$ of Dirac operator changes as $1/\lambda$ for the infrared eigenvalues $\lambda<T$. This behavior persists over the entire…
Two parameters that have a strong influence on the finite temperature QCD transition, and play an important role in various physical scenarios are the quark density and the external magnetic field. The effect of these parameters on the…

The QCD phase diagram at finite temperature and density has attracted considerable interest over many decades now, not least because of its relevance for a better understanding of heavy-ion collision experiments. Models provide some insight…
Finite temperature QCD sum rules are applied to the behaviour of charmonium and bottonium states, leading to their survival at and beyond the critical temperature for deconfinement. Di-muon production in heavy-ion collisions in the…
