The production of $\eta$ mesons in $NN$ collisions in the near threshold region is analyzed with special emphasis on the role of final state interaction which is calculated using three-body scattering theory. The three-body aspects are…
Photoproduction of $J/\psi$ is considered including the color-octet contributions from the various partial wave states, $^{2S+1}L_J$ = $^1S_0$, $^3S_1$ and $^3P_J$. The production cross section depends on three new nonperturbative…
Color-octet contributions to the associate J/psi+gamma hadroproduction are studied in detail, and found to be negligible, compared to the ordinary color-singlet contribution. Within the color-singlet model the J/psi+gamma production in the…
We use perturbation theory to estimate the energy scale beyond which multiparticle final states become a dominant feature of high energy weak interactions. Using estimates from a weak parton model and comparing two, three and four body…
Optical properties of transition metal dichalcogenides monolayers are controlled by the Wannier-Mott excitons forming a series of $1s$, $2s$, $2p$,... hydrogen-like states. We develop the theory of the excited excitonic states energy…
Quantum geometric electronic responses are often viewed through a non-interacting lens: independent quasiparticles accumulate Berry phases as they move through a static crystal and background potential. Here we argue that the combined…
We study the transfer of color between a heavy quark pair and an unpaired heavy quark or antiquark moving at a nonrelativistic velocity with respect to the pair. We find that the open heavy quark or antiquark can catalyze the transformation…

We present an update of the One-Meson-Exchange (OME) results for the weak decay of s- and p-shell hypernuclei (Ref. Phys. Rev. C {\bf 56}, 339 (1997)), paying special attention to the role played by final state interactions between the…
The effect of anomalous couplings in $\gamma \gamma \to W^+ W^-$ is studied for different energies of the $\gamma \gamma$ mode of the next linear collider. The analysis based on the maximum likelihood method exploits the variables in the…
It is argued that some phase--transitions observed in models of non-equilibrium wetting phenomena are related to contact processes with long-range interactions. This is investigated by introducing a model where the activation rate of a site…
A critical survey of the existing direct and indirect constraints on massive spin-one color octets is presented. Since such new degrees of freedom appear in any extension of the color gauge group to a product of at least two SU(3) factors,…

The current limits for fourth generation quarks allows to expect their mass of the order of 500 GeV. In this mass region for quark-anti-quark pair the additional Yukawa-type attraction due to Higgs mechanism is expected to emerge. This…
I examine the role of final state interactions in cold nuclear matter in modifying hadron production on nuclear targets with leptonic or hadronic beams. I demonstrate the extent to which available experimental data in electron-nucleus…
