Mesons containing light and heavy quarks are studied. Interaction of quarks is described by the funnel-type potential with the distant dependent strong coupling, $\alpha_\S(r)$. Free particle hypothesis for the bound state is developed:…
Smooth transitions from hadronic matter to hot and dense matter of quantum chromodynamics accompany continuous transformations in effective degrees of freedom. The microscopic descriptions should include relativistic quarks interacting…
In this work, an unquenched quark model is proposed for describing the heavy-light mesons by taking into account the coupled-channel effects induced by chiral dynamics. After including a relativistic correction term for the strong…
Using an effective Lagrangian approach, we perform a model-independent analysis of the interactions among electroweak gauge bosons and the third generation quarks, i.e. the Wtb, Ztt and Zbb couplings. After one imposes the known…
Beauty quarks are considered as one of the best probes of the strongly interacting medium created in relativistic heavy-ion collisions because they are predominantly produced via initial hard scatterings. Measurements of B meson production…
The quark potential model for mesons and its extension for hybrid mesons are used to study the effects of radial excitations on the masses, sizes and radial wave functions at the origin for conventional and hybrid charmonium mesons. These…

We perform the first study for the heavy-heavy-light quark (QQq) potential in SU(3) lattice QCD. The calculations are done with the standard gauge and $O(a)$-improved Wilson fermion action on the $16^4$ lattice at $\beta =6.0$ at the…
Potentials of quark--anti-quark pairs are studied from the anti-q--q Nambu-Bethe-Salpeter (NBS) wave functions in quenched lattice QCD. With the use of a method which has been recently developed in the derivation of nuclear forces from QCD,…
We perform a lattice study of heavy baryons, containing one ($\Lambda_b$) or two $b$-quarks ($\Xi_b$). Using the quenched approximation we obtain for the mass of $\Lambda_b$ $$ M_{\Lambda_b}= 5.728 \pm 0.144 \pm 0.018 {\rm GeV}.$$ The mass…
We study the implications of having a similarity between quark and lepton mixing in the Dirac sector of the Standard Model plus the right-handed neutrino. This enable us to describe all masses and mixings in the Dirac sector in terms of…
This research is concerned with the inter-particle potentials for few-particle bound state systems in a scalar model with a Higgs-like mediating field and QCD. The variational method, in a reformulated Hamiltonian formalism of QFT, is used…
Comparing the theoretically predicted and measured values of the mass difference of the $B^{0}_{s}$ system, we estimate the lower bound on the mass of the $Z^{\prime}$ boson of models based on the $SU(3)_{c} \otimes SU(3)_{L} \otimes…
Modern particle physics experiments, e.g. at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, crucially depend on the precise description of the scattering processes in terms of the known fundamental forces. This is limited by our current…
In the past twenty years, hadron spectroscopy has made immense progress. Experimental facilities have observed different multiquark states during these years. There are different models and phenomenological potentials to study the nature of…
Within the context of the Standard Model, quarks are placed in a $(\mathbf{3},\mathbf{2})\oplus (\mathbf{3},\bar{\mathbf{2}})$ matter field representation of $U_{EW}(2)$. Although the quarks carry unit intrinsic electric charge in this…
