The low-energy effective theories for the two- and three-flavor color-superconductors arising in the high density limit of QCD are discussed. Using an effective field theory to describe quarks near the fermi surface, we compute the masses…

Quark mass ratios are expressed within the linear meson model by universal relations involving only the masses and decay constants of the flavored pseudoscalars as well as their wave function renormalization. Quantitative results are in…

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…

The effect of quark-gluon vertex dressing on the ground state masses of the u/d-quark pseudoscalar, vector and axialvector mesons is considered with the Dyson-Schwinger equations. This extends the ladder-rainbow Bethe-Salpeter kernel to…

The present apparent cosmological constant is interpreted as the potential of the lightest pseudo Goldstone boson. Some numerical relations among cosmological parameters and particle masses are shown to arise from the mixture of this very…

The constants of the effective action describing the massless modes in the color-flavor-locking phase of QCD have been recently evaluated at high density. Values of the pseudoscalar masses for nonvanishing quark masses have also been given.…

We study finite volume effects in heavy quark systems in the framework of heavy meson chiral perturbation theory for full, quenched, and partially quenched QCD. A novel feature of this investigation is the role played by the scales Delta…

Within the Bethe-Salpeter formalism for instantaneous interactions, we describe, along a totally analytic route, the lightest pseudoscalar mesons by quark-antiquark bound states which show at least three indispensable general features,…

Strong decays of vector ($^3S_1$) mesons to the pair of pseudoscalar ($^1S_0$) mesons are considered in the framework of the microscopic decay mechanism and the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach. The…

Despite its role in the continuing evolution of the Universe, only a small fraction of the mass of visible material can be attributed to the Higgs boson alone. The overwhelmingly dominant share may/should arise from the strong interactions…

The properties of the pseudoscalar Goldstone bosons in the color-flavor locked phase at moderate densities are studied within a model of the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio type. The Goldstone bosons are constructed explicitly by solving the…

Achieving self-consistent simultaneous interpretations of pions and kaons as bound states of quark and antiquark and as the (almost) massless boson states related, according to Goldstone's theorem, to the dynamical (and explicit) breakdown…

Little Higgs models have an enlarged global symmetry which makes the Higgs boson a pseudo-Goldstone boson. This symmetry typically contains spontaneously broken U(1) subgroups which provide light electroweak-singlet pseudoscalars. Unless…

Partially quenched theories are theories in which the valence- and sea-quark masses are different. Here, we will discuss the nonanalytic one-loop corrections to some physical quantities, using partially quenched chiral perturbation theory.…

We propose that the non-perturbative fragmentation functions describing the transition from a heavy quark to a heavy meson is proportional to the square of the produced meson wave function at the origin. We analyze the effects of this…

The existence of quantized vibrations is utilized to explain narrow nucleon resonances below the pion threshold. A Goldstone boson with a mass of 35 MeV is derived from the experimental dibaryon masses. The quantum of 35 MeV is recognized…

The properties of scalar quarks are studied, especially the formation of fermionic mesons with an anti-quark. On the basis of this theoretical investigation together with the experimental data, both from last year and from this year, of the…

Our previous calculations of the sea- and valence-quark mass dependence of the pseudoscalar meson masses and decay constants is repeated on a 16^3x32 lattice which allows for a better determination of the quantities in question. The…

We determine the value of the quark condensate from quenched QCD simulations on the lattice in two ways: (i) by using the GMOR formula; (ii) by comparing the OPE prediction for the Goldstone pole contribution to the pseudoscalar vertex, at…

We present an extension of the Goldstone-boson-exchange constituent quark model including additional interactions beyond the ones used hitherto. For the hyperfine interaction between the constituent quarks we assume pseudoscalar, vector,…
