We thank Tom Schafer for pointing out difficulties in this paper.
We provide some new results of the ground state of quantum layers.
Within the Euclidean effective action approach we propose criteria for the ground state of QCD. Despite a nonvanishing field strength the ground state should be invariant with respect to modified Poincar\'e transformations consisting of a…
In this talk, we briefly review the current understanding of the behavior of the QCD equation of state throughout the phase diagram. Special emphasis is given to regions of phenomenological interest, and a number of important open questions…
A concise review of the experimental and phenomenological progress in high-energy heavy-ion physics over the past few years is presented. Emphasis is put on measurements at BNL-RHIC and CERN-SPS which provide information on fundamental…
Hadronic final states at the LHC will be an interesting testing ground for QCD. A good understanding of QCD radiation will also be important for the discovery of new physics at the LHC. I discuss some aspects of this subject and give a few…
Exploration of the QCD phase diagram is pivotal in particle and nuclear physics. We construct a full four-dimensional equation of state of QCD with net baryon, electric charge, and strangeness by extending the NEOS model beyond the…
An algorithm for an improved description of final-state QCD radiation is introduced. It is matched to the first-order matrix elements for gluon emission in a host of decays, for processes within the Standard Model and the Minimal…
Recent attempts to make direct contact between QCD and simple nuclear systems are reviewed.
Following a brief review of our contributions to the 2006 European PP Strategy, recent comments on several topics are presented. First of all, it is emphasized that only the simplest version of the fourth chiral generation, namely, minimal…
A previous paper (M.F.Atiyah and N.S.Manton, Complex geometry of nuclei and atoms, arXiv:1609.02816) modelled atoms and their isotopes by complex algebraic surfaces, with the projective plane modelling Hydrogen. In this paper, models of the…
Bound states of heavy $\bar{q}q$ quarks are reviewed within the context of QCD. First of all, we consider the calculations which can be performed {\sl ab initio}, which includes $\bar{t}t$ with principal quantum number $n$ up to four,…
A unified chiral mean field approach is presented for QCD thermodynamics in a wide range of temperatures and densities. The model simultaneously gives a satisfactory description of lattice QCD thermodynamics and fulfills nuclear matter and…
Relativistic and QED corrections were calculated for hyperfine splitting of the $2S_{1/2}$ ground state in $^{6,7}$Li atoms with an exact account for electronic correlations. The resulting theoretical predictions achieved such a precision…
I have been asked to discuss the status of QCD. It seems to me that there are three main points to be made about the present status of QCD: $\bullet$ QCD is right, and we can do many beautiful things with it. $\bullet$ There are several…
We present results from an ongoing calculation of the QCD equation of state at finite baryon chemical potential $\mu_B$. We use the method of Taylor expansions to circumvent the sign problem and calculate the expansion coefficients to sixth…
We present results for the binding energies for ^4He and ^3He nuclei calculated in quenched lattice QCD at the lattice spacing of a =0.128 fm with a heavy quark mass corresponding to m_pi = 0.8 GeV. Enormous computational cost for the…
In a recent experiment E906 at the BNL-AGS, a search for light S=-2 hypernuclei, strong evidence was found for the nuclide Hydrogen-4 double Lambda. One of the most striking components of this data was the appearance of a narrow…
I describe progress that is being made toward calculating the properties and interactions of nuclei from QCD.
We report results for the ground-state energy and structural properties of small $^4$He-T$\downarrow$ clusters consisting of up to 4 T$\downarrow$ and 8 $^4$He atoms. These results have been obtained using very well-known $^4$He-$^4$He and…
