We investigated systematically whether the S-wave ($\bar{Q}q$) meson and the ($Q\bar{q}$) meson may form S-wave bound states in a chiral SU(3) quark model by solving the resonating group method equation. Here $Q=c$ or $b$ and $q=u$, $d$ or…
Two-body bound states such as mesons are described by solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation. We discuss recent results for the pseudoscalar and vector meson masses and leptonic decay constants, ranging from pions up to c\bar{c} bound…
We study the instabilities of quark matter in the framework of a generalized Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model, in order to explore possible competition between three-quark clustering to form nucleons and diquark formation leading to color…

Recently, a theoretical framework was set up in [1], which allows for the symmetry-preserving inclusion of full quark-gluon vertices in the description of the meson dynamics. In the present work, we develop a special truncation within this…
We derive a confining $ q \bar{q}$ Bethe--Salpeter equation starting from the same assumptions on the Wilson loop integral already adopted in the derivation of a semirelativistic heavy quark potential. We show that, by standard…

This Dyson-Schwinger equation (DSE) aperc,u highlights recent applications to mesons. It reports features of, and results for, pseudoscalar and scalar bound-state residues in vacuum polarisations, and exhibits how a restoration of chiral…
We present the results of a covariant constituent quark model, based on the Bethe-Salpeter equation, where confinement is implemented by a string like linear potential explaining the Regge trajectories. An instanton induced quark force…
We show that it is necessary to go beyond the BCS (rainbow-ladder) approximation to split the $\eta$ and $\eta'$ masses from the $\pi$ and K masses. We determine the self-consistent set of one-quark-loop diagrams both for the…
We review the approach to modeling soft hadron physics observables based on the Dyson-Schwinger equations of QCD. The focus is on light quark mesons and in particular the pseudoscalar and vector ground states, their decays and…
We estimate the decay constants $f_\pi$ and $f_K$ of the light mesons within a relativistic quantum-field model of interacting quarks and gluons confined analytically. The necessary physical parameters, the quark masses $m_u$ and $m_s$, the…
It is shown how the axial vector current of current quarks is related to that of constituent quarks within the framework of the global color symmetry model. Gluon dressing of the axial vector vertex and the quark self-energy functions is…
