QCD predicts that strongly interacting matter will undergo a transition from a state of hadronic constituents to a plasma of unbound quarks and gluons. We first survey the conceptual features of this transition and its description in finite…
We present results of simulations of Two Color QCD using two flavors of Wilson quark in the fundamental representation, at non-zero quark chemical potential mu, on an 8^3x16 lattice. Results for the quark number density, quark and gluon…
Within QCD, colourless states may be constructed corresponding to exotic matter outside of the traditional quark model. Experiments have recently observed tetraquark and pentaquark states, but no definitive hybrid meson signals have been…
We discuss properties of statistical QCD relevant in Fermi phase space model analysis of strange hadron production experimental data. We argue that the analysis results interpreted using established statistical QCD properties are…
We present results from a calculation of the QCD equation of state with two light (up, down) and one heavier (strange) quark mass performed on lattices with three different values of the lattice cut-off. We show that also on the finest…
The spectra of some 0++ four-quark states, which are composed of \bar qq pairs, are calculated in QCD. The light four-quark states are calculated using the traditional sum rules while four-quark states containing one heavy quark are…
In the limit of an infinite number of colors, we derive an analytic expression for the quark condensate in $QCD_{1+1}$ as a function of the quark mass and the gauge coupling constant. For zero quark mass, a nonvanishing quark condensate is…
In this review paper the QCD vacuum properties and the structure of color fields in hadrons are studied using the complete set of gauge-invariant correlators of gluon fields. Confinement in QCD is produced by the correlators of some certain…
We analyse the triviality-quantum decoherence of Euclidean quantum chromodynamics in the gauge invariant sector in the presence of an external U(infinite)-flavor constant charged white noise reservoir and producing thus a proof for…
Solving instability of Savvidy vacuum in QCD is a longstanding problem. Using light cone quantization we analyze the problem not in the real confining vacuum but in dense quark matter where gluons interact weakly with each other. We find a…
Color confinement is a fundamental phenomenon in quantum chromodynamics. In this work, the mechanisms underlying color confinement are investigated in detail, with a particular focus on the role of non-perturbative phenomena such as center…
QCD equation of state is calculated in (2+1) flavor QCD at temperatures corresponding fermion action on lattices with temporal extent $N_{\tau}=8$. The results are compared with previous calculations performed at twice larger values of the…
In the deconfinement phase of QCD quarks and gluons interact with the dense stochastic colour-magnetic vacuum. We consider the dynamics of quarks in this deconfinement phase using the Field Correlators Method and derive an effective…
In a QCD-like strongly coupled gauge theory at large N_c, using the AdS/CFT correspondence, we find that heavy quark deconfinement is accompanied by a coherent condensation of higher meson resonances. This is revealed in non-equilibrium…
We discuss how the presence of a squeezed gluon vacuum might lead to quark confinement in the framework of the global colour model of QCD. Using reduced phase space quantization of massive vector theory we construct a Lorentz invariant and…
The dynamical scenario is considered for N=1 SQCD, with N_c colors and N_c<N_F<3N_c flavors with small but nonzero current quark masses m_Q\neq 0, in which quarks form the diquark-condensate phase. This means that colorless chiral quark…
A chromoelectric vacuum that confines both gluon and quark degrees of freedom (in the sense that they do not exist as asymptotic states) is constructed. However some degrees of freedom still exist as asymptotic states thereby allowing…
We suggest a physical definition of the confinement mass scale in QCD in the framework of non-perturbative, gauge invariant QCD, where all possible gluons exchanged between any pair of quark lines are included; and we insist that a stable,…
We describe the effects of the strange quark mass and of the color and electric neutrality on the superconducing phases of QCD.
In a recent work, we have argued that the net quark number gained by a bath of quarks and gluons upon bringing an external static quark probe, while being equal to $1$ in the high temperature, deconfined phase, is equal to $0$ or $3$ in the…
