A holographic dual of hadrons at finite density is considered. We use the zero black-hole mass limit of Reisner-Nordstrom (RN) AdS background with hard wall to describe a confining background with finite quark density. We calculate…
Quark-hadron duality implies that a process described in terms of quark loops should be the hadronic amplitude when averaged over a sufficient number of states. Ambiguities associated with the notion of quark hadron duality can be made…
In this paper we construct a model that satisfies the theoretical requisites of high energy soft interactions, based on two ingredients:(i) the results of N=4 SYM, which at present is a unique theory that allows one to deal with a large…
This review deals with the structure of hadrons, strongly interacting many-body systems consisting of quarks and gluons. These systems have a size of about 1 fm, which shows up in scattering experiments at low momentum transfers $Q$ in the…
We use the QCD sum rule approach to calculate the splitting between vector and pseudoscalar mesons containing one light and one heavy quark, and the kinetic energy of the heavy quark. Our result for the splitting induced by the…
We study the isospin mass differences of singly heavy baryons, based on a pion mean-field approach. We consider both the electromagnetic interactions and the hadronic contributions that arise from the mass difference of the up and down…
We introduce an improved mass formula for the nucleon and delta resonances and show how it emerges from AdS/QCD in a straightforward extension of the 'metric soft wall' gravity dual. The resulting spectrum depends on just one adjustable…
The AdS/CFT correspondence between theories in AdS space and conformal field theories in physical space-time provides an analytic, semi-classical, color-confining model for strongly-coupled QCD. The soft-wall AdS/QCD model modified by a…

We compute the decoupling constant $\zeta_m$ relating light quark masses of effective $n_l$-flavour QCD to $(n_l+1)$-flavour QCD to four-loop order. Immediate applications are the evaluation of the $\overline{\rm MS}$ charm quark mass with…
The strong interactions of the negative-parity heavy mesons with $\rho$ meson may be described consistently in the context of an effective lagrangian, which is invariant under isospin SU(2) transformation. Four coupling constants…
A moderately strong vector repulsion between quarks in dense quark matter is needed to explain how a quark core can support neutron stars heavier than two solar masses. We study this repulsion, parametrized by a four-fermion interaction…
We present the first Dyson-Schwinger equation calculation of the light hadron spectrum that simultaneously correlates the masses of meson and baryon ground- and excited-states within a single framework. At the core of our analysis is a…
The study of heavy-light meson masses should provide a way to determine renormalized quark masses and other properties of heavy-light mesons. In the context of lattice QCD, for example, it is possible to calculate hadronic quantities for…
Meson spin splittings are examined within an effective Coulomb gauge QCD Hamiltonian incorporating chiral symmetry and a transverse hyperfine interaction necessary for heavy quarks. For light and heavy quarkonium systems the…
Relations among the effective hadron masses and the effective interactions in nuclear matter are studied by using the generalized relativistic mean field theory. We found that we can make the effective omega-meson mass smaller and the…
