Background: The Skyrme energy density functional is widely used in mean-field calculations of nuclear structure and dynamics. However, its reliance on phenomenology may compromise its isovector properties and its performance for exotic…
Cornell potential is known to represent the quark-antiquark confinement interaction. In addition to the Cornell potential, there have been other interactions in the literature that demonstrate confining structure in the quark-antiquark…

Phase transition from hadronic matter to quark-gluon matter is discussed for various regimes of temperature and baryon number density. For small and medium densities, the phase transition is accurately described in the framework of the…
The quark exchange model is a simple realization of an adiabatic approximation to the strong-coupling limit of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD): the quarks always coalesce into the lowest energy set of flux tubes. Nuclear matter is thus modeled…
We study the effects of strong magnetic fields on antikaon condensation in neutron star matter using the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model. The QMC model describes a nuclear many-body system as nonoverlapping MIT bags in which quarks…

In this work, we extend the two-flavor Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model to one capable of exploring quark and nuclear matter consistently. With an extra term standing for quark-nucleon interactions, nucleons could automatically emerge as…
We study hot nuclear matter in an explicit quark model based on a mean field description of nonoverlapping nucleon bags bound by the self-consistent exchange of scalar and vector mesons as well as the glueball field. The glueball exchange…

The quark sigma model describes the quarks interacting via exchange the pions and sigma meson fields. A new version of mesonic potential is suggested in the frame of some aspects of the quantum chromodynamics (QCD). The field equations have…
Noncommutative features are introduced into a relativistic quantum field theory model of nuclear matter, the quantum hadrodynamics-I nuclear model (QHD-I). It is shown that the nuclear matter equation of state (NMEoS) depends on the…
In the framework of the relativistic mean-field theory, we have considered the equation of state of superdense nuclear matter, taking into account an effective scalar-isovector delta-meson field. The effect of the delta-meson field on the…
In-medium properties of the low-lying baryons are studied in the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, focusing on the $\Sigma_b$ and $\Xi_b$ baryons. It is predicted that the Lorentz-scalar effective mass of $\Sigma_b$ becomes smaller than…

With the global color symmetry model being extended to finite chemical potential, we study the density dependence of the local and nonlocal scalar quark condensates in nuclear matter. The calculated results indicate that the quark…
We study the response of a nucleus composed of nucleons and confined quarks. Assuming dynamics implied by a non-relativistic cluster model, we prove that the total response is a convolution of the responses of, respectively, a nucleus with…
