An enhanced binding of an $N$-particle system interacting through a scalar bose field is investigated, where $N\geq 2$. It is not assumed that this system has a ground state for a zero coupling. It is shown, however, that there exists a…
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the gauge field theory of the Strong Interaction, has specific features, asymptotic freedom and confinement, which determine the behaviour of quarks and gluons in particle reactions at high and at low energy…
Based on a Lagrangian with a coupling of two gluons to J^pi=0^+ (the quantum numbers of the vacuum) which decay to q-qbar pairs, a model is presented, in which hadrons couple directly to the absolute vacuum of fluctuating gluon fields. By…
The ground and P-wave excited states of nnn, nns and ssn baryons are studied in the framework of the Field Correlator Method using the running strong coupling constant in the Coulomb-like part of the three-quark potential. The running…
We investigate the formation of light nuclei with the nuclear mass number less than or equal to four in 2+1 flavor QCD using a non-perturbative improved Wilson quark and Iwasaki gauge actions. The quark mass is decreased from our previous…
We present a largely model independent analysis of the lighter Heavy Quarkonium Hybrids based on the strong coupling regime of Potential Non-Relativistic QCD (pNRQCD). We calculate the spectrum at leading order, including the mixing of…
We study the transition from hadronic matter to a mixed phase of quarks and hadrons at high baryon and isospin densities reached in heavy ion collisions. We focus our attention on the role played by the nucleon symmetry energy at high…
Quantum systems strongly coupled to many-body systems equilibrate to the reduced state of a global thermal state, deviating from the local thermal state of the system as it occurs in the weak-coupling limit. Taking this insight as a…
One of the main activities in high-energy and nuclear physics is the search for the so-called quark-gluon plasma, a new state of matter which should have existed a few microseconds after the Big Bang. A quark-gluon plasma consists of free…
We explore the quark-mass dependence of two-nucleon systems. Allowed regions for the scattering lengths in the 1S0 and 3S1 channels as functions of the light-quark masses are determined from the current uncertainty in strong-interaction…
The early idea that a non-perturbative gluon condensate affects the spectrum of heavy quarks is revisited in the light of modern simulation techniques. We evaluate the low lying spectrum of bound states of two heavy quarks for large…
We suggest that the ultrarelativistic collisions of heavy ions provide the simplest situation for the study of strong interactions which can be understood from first principles and without any model assumptions about the microscopic…
Continuum strong QCD is the application of models and continuum quantum field theory to the study of phenomena in hadronic physics, which includes; e.g., the spectrum of QCD bound states and their interactions. Herein I provide a…
It was recently derived that the QCD running coupling is a function of the magnetic field strength under the strong magnetic field approximation. Inspired by this progress and based on the self-consistent solutions of gap equations, the…
Several topics in hadron physics at different scales of resolution are discussed. First, deep-inelastic scattering from nucleons and nuclei is viewed in a light-cone coordinate space picture. Then the smooth transition from parton to hadron…
The quantum Ising chain with the interaction decaying as a power law $1/r^{1+\sigma}$ of the distance between spins $r$ was investigated numerically. A particular attention was paid to the low-energy spectrum, namely, the single-magnon and…
We study the dynamics of a quantum emitter coupled to a two-dimensional photonic crystal featuring a finite bandwidth with sharp edges and a Van-Hove singularity. We study the effect of strong system-bath coupling and non-Markovianity of…
A variational approach based on the multi-coherent-state ansatz with asymmetric parameters is employed to study the ground state of the spin-boson model. Without any artificial approximations except for the finite number of the coherent…
We use analytic continuation to extend the gauge/gravity duality nonperturbative description of the strong force coupling into the transition, near-perturbative, regime where perturbative effects become important. By excluding the…
We consider a generalized Rabi model formed by two identical qubits interacting with a common oscillator mode. In the near resonance configuration where the oscillator frequency is close to the transition frequency of the qubit, we…
