In this article, we study the mass spectrum of the scalar and axial-vector heavy diquark states with the QCD sum rules in a systematic way. Once the reasonable values are obtained, we can take them as basic parameters and study the new…
There was a general believe that the nucleon QCD sum rules which include only the quark loops and thus contain only the condensates of dimension d=3 and d=4 have only a trivial solution. We demonstrate that there is also a nontrivial…
Arguments in favor of a large magnitude ( at least two- three times bigger than its factorized value) of the mixed vacuum condensate $ \la \bar{q}G_{\mu\nu}^a G_{\mu\nu}^a q \ra$ are given. The analysis is based on the strict inequalities…
We review the calculations of form factors and coupling constants in vertices with charm mesons in the framework of QCD sum rules. We first discuss the motivation for this work, describing possible applications of these form factors to…
Quarks of other flavours than up and down, i.e. $s$, $c$, and $b$ quarks, have been long recognized as effective probes of the structure of hot QCD matter. In this talk, I review some of the motivations for their investigation and discuss…
An estimate has been made of the masses of heavy hadrons in nonrelativistic quark model, which includes spin and flavor-dependent hyperfine splitting for two quarks. The effect of variation of the wavefunction value at origin and the strong…
We analyse the extraction of the bound-state form factor from vacuum-to-hadron correlator, which is the basic object for the calculation of hadron form factors in the method of light-cone sum rules in QCD. We study this correlator in…
The focus of this report is the lattice calculation of hadronic parameters relevant to heavy flavour phenomenology. I will review recent results and the current status of studies of the B and D decay constants, semileptonic decay form…
In the framework of QCD sum rules one uses a scheme, allowing one to apply the conditions of both nonrelativistic heavy quark motion inside mesons and independence of nonsplitting nS-state density on the heavy quark flavours. In the leading…
QCD sum rules for the nucleon are considered in complex q^2 plane with inclusion of the radiative corrections of the order alpha_s. It is shown that the radiative corrections affect mainly the residue lambda^2 of the nucleon pole. Their…
In this series of lectures, I shall begin with the current investigations on phenomenology of hadron dynamics to demonstrate the importance of solving hadronic bound states within the framework of light-front (LF) QCD. Then, I will describe…
Three different ways of determining the strange quark mass using QCD sum rules are reviewed. First, from a QCD sum rule determination of the up and down quark masses, together with the current algebra ratio $ m_{s}/(m_{u}+m_{d})$. Second…
We present the calculation of the spectrum of baryons containing one heavy quark. Heavy baryon and meson mass splittings are computed and compared with experiment. We give preliminary results for the form factor $G_1$ for the semileptonic…
The main part of this talk is a review and summary of how QCD is used in two main areas of nuclear physics, namely in determining the quark flavor and spin content of the proton and in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. Brief comments…
We derive thermal QCD sum rules for the correlation function of two vector currents in the rho-meson channel. It takes into account the leading non-perturbative corrections from the additional operators, which appear due to the breakdown of…

In this work, we evaluate the accuracy of the leading order results in Shifman-Vainshtein-Zakharov (SVZ) sum rules and the leading power results in the heavy quark limit for the mass of $\Lambda_{Q}$. Up to dim-5 condensate contributions…
In this work, $T_{cc}$ double charm tetraquark and $1^{+}$ and $0^{+}$ hidden charm tetraquarks are studied within the QCD sum rules framework. In the heavy-quark limit, the $1^+$ and $0^+$ tetraquarks are degenerate and the difference in…
I summarize the theory talks given in the Heavy Flavours Working Group. In particular, I discuss heavy-flavour parton distribution functions, threshold resummation for heavy-quark production, progress in fragmentation functions, quarkonium…
