A "natural" model for the QCD invariant (running) coupling, free of the IR singularity, is proposed. It is based upon the hypothesis of finite gluon mass $ m_{gl}$ existence and, technically, uses an accurate treating of threshold behavior…
Parametric regularity of discretizations of flux vector fields satisfying a balance law is studied under some assumptions on a random parameter that links the flux with an unknown primal variable (often through a constitutive law). In the…
The Higgs sector in neutral naturalness models provides a portal to the hidden sectors, and thus measurements of Higgs couplings at current and future colliders play a central role in constraining the parameter space of the model. We…
In this work we investigate replacing standard quadrature techniques used in deterministic linear solvers with a fixed-seed Quasi-Monte Carlo calculation to obtain more accurate and efficient solutions to the neutron transport equation…
The standard model does not provide an explanation of the observed alignment of quark flavors i.e. why are the up and down quarks approximately aligned in their weak interactions according to their masses? We suggest a resolution of this…
The possibility that nuclear matter at a density relevant to the interior of massive neutron stars may be a quarkynoic matter has attracted considerable recent interest. In this work, we construct a field theoretical model to describe the…
It is shown that quantum nucleardynamics (QND) as an SU(2)_N \times U(1)_Z gauge theory, which is generated from quantum chromodynamics (QCD) as an SU(3)_C gauge theory through dynamical spontaneous symmetry breaking, successfully describes…

We present a method for determining a purely quark Lagrangian by mocking up the QCD partition function for large gauge couplings $g$. The resulting effective theory displays all the symmetries of low energy QCD and can be potentially used…

The quark-meson coupling (QMC) model is applied to a study of the mass of the $\rho$-meson in helium and carbon nuclei. The average mass of a $\rho$-meson formed in $^{3,4}$He and $^{12}$C is expected to be around 730, 690 and 720 MeV,…

In the latest version of the QMC model, QMC$\pi$-III-T, the density functional is improved to include the tensor component quadratic in the spin-current and a pairing interaction derived in the QMC framework. Traditional pairing strengths…
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the generally accepted theory for the strong interactions, describes the interactions between quarks and gluons. The strongly interacting particles that are seen in nature are hadrons, which are composites of…
Quantum cluster approaches offer new perspectives to study the complexities of macroscopic correlated fermion systems. These approaches can be understood as generalized mean-field theories. Quantum cluster approaches are non-perturbative…
We study the QCD phase diagram using the linear sigma model coupled to quarks. We compute the effective potential at finite temperature and quark chemical potential up to ring diagrams contribution. We show that, provided the values for the…
Two dimensional QCD coupled to fermions in the adjoint representation of the gauge group $SU(N)$, a useful toy model of QCD strings, is supersymmetric for a certain ratio of quark mass and gauge coupling constant. Here we study the theory…
