Hadronization, the process by which energetic quarks evolve into hadrons, has been studied phenomenologically for decades. However, little experimental insight has been gained into the space-time features of this fundamentally…
The experimental and theoretical issues and challenges for extracting the neutron-neutron scattering length are discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on recent results and their impact on the field. Comments are made regarding current…
This colloquium addresses the issue of the shape of hadrons and in particular that of the proton. The concept of shape in the microcosm is critically examined. Special attention is devoted to properly define the meaning of shape for…
This survey offers an introductory tutorial for students of any age of the currently thriving field of hadrochemistry. We discuss the different chemical potentials, how the hadronic phase space is described and how one evaluates the…
The statistical model of the hadron as a quarkonium system suggests the dimensional dependence of some of the properties of the hadron like the scaling in its probability density with the anomalous dimension as the exponent,the…
In the discussion of hadronization at or close to the freeze-out curve statistical (hadron resonance gas) models play an important role. In particular, in the charmonium sector, regeneration models are considered which rely on the fact that…
We give a brief overview of the problem of quark confinement in hadronic physics, and outline a few of the suggested explanations of the confining force.
Quark matter is being expected to be found in heavy ion collisions on the basis of calculations in the framework of traditional, extensive thermodynamics. Recently a non-extensive generalization of the thermodynamics is emerging in the…
A model of hadron masses based on the quark structure of hadrons combined with effects of chiral dynamics is used to calculate the 2+1 flavour chiral condensate in the hadron resonance gas framework. Results are discussed in the context of…
I introduce and explore a range of topics of contemporary interest in hadronic physics: from what drives the formation of a nonzero quark condensate to the effect that mechanism has on light and heavy meson form factors, and the properties…
I review the novel results and developments presented at the Third Workshop on Physics and Detectors for DA$\Phi$NE that deal with hadronic physics. Topics discussed include: the scalar quark condensate, kaon decays, the sector of scalar…
We discuss issues in rare and radiative kaon decays. The interest is to extract useful short-distance information and uncover underlying dynamics. We emphasize channels where either we can understand non-perturbative aspects of QCD or there…
Although extracted from several experiments using hadronic probes \cite{bor1}, narrow baryonic structures have been sometimes met with disbelief. New signatures are presented, which appear from already published data, obtained with hadronic…
The matter density distribution inside a hadron is evaluated using gauge-invariant correlation functions within the quenched and the unquenched theory. Comparison with the charge density distribution suggests that hadron deformation is a…
I discuss the progress in the use of analytic techniques for low energy QCD, in particular as applied to kaon physics. These methods are becoming increasingly powerful and we have gained a good deal of control over the difficult hadronic…
We present the recent developments in the studies of the structure of hadron resonances, focusing on the compositeness in terms of the hadronic degrees of freedom. We discuss the model dependence of the compositeness, and show that the…
We estimate various transport coefficients of hot and dense hadronic matter in the presence of magnetic field. The estimation is done through solutions of the relativistic Boltzmann transport equation in the relaxation time approximation.We…
Different approaches to the nonlinear dynamics of premixed flames exist in the literature: equations based on developments in a gas ex- pansion parameter, weak nonlinearity approximation, potential model equation in a coordinate-free form.…
The basic ideas and some recent developments of the chiral perturbation theory approach to hadron dynamics at low-energies are reviewed. (Invited talk at the HADRON'93 Conference Como, Italy June 1993.)
I discuss the issue of uncertainties in parton distributions and in the physical quantities which are determined in terms of them. While there has been significant progress on the uncertainties associated with errors on experimental data,…
