We derive a theoretically allowed domain for the slope $\widehat\varrho^2$ and curvature $\widehat c$ of the physical form factor appearing in the decay $\bar B\to D^*\ell\bar\nu$. Using heavy-quark symmetry, we relate this function to a…
Using new experimental data on photoproduction and $\Lambda_b^0$ decays, we derive constraints on the properties of the LHCb $P_c$ states. We conclude that $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4440)$ can be described as $\Sigma_c\bar D$,…
Precision measurements of high energy top quarks at the LHC constitute a powerful probe of new physics. We study the effect of four fermion operators involving two tops and two light quarks on the high energy tail of the $t\bar t$ invariant…
With the latest LHC available results, we consider the generic constraints on massive graviton. Both dijet and dilepton resonance searches are used. The limits on parameter space can be applied to many models. As an illustration, we show…
It is shown that, in the bound state picture, the $\Lambda_c(2593) \to\Lambda_c\gamma$ and $\Lambda_c(2625)\to\Lambda_c\gamma$ decays are severely suppressed. On the other hand, for their bottom counterparts, which are predicted to have…
We present constraints on the parameters of the $\Lambda$CDM cosmological model in the presence of massive neutrinos, using the one-dimensional Ly$\alpha$ forest power spectrum obtained with the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey…
Some emerging difficulties in the theoretical description of exclusive semileptonic $\bar B$ decays are discussed in the context of the quark model. While there are no unambiguous problems at this time, I discuss physics beyond the valence…
Gravitational wave (GW) constraints have recently been used to significantly restrict models of dark energy and modified gravity. New bounds arising from GW decay and GW-induced dark energy instabilities are particularly powerful in this…
We discuss a recent analysis of $t\bar{t}$ threshold effects and its implications for the determination of electroweak parameters. We show that the new formulation, when applied to the $\rho$ parameter for $m_t\approx158$~GeV, gives a…
Cosmological constraints are usually derived under the assumption of a $6$ parameters $\Lambda$-CDM theoretical framework or simple one-parameter extensions. In this paper we present, for the first time, cosmological constraints in a…
The relativistic quark model is presented. The quark-antiquark potential for the Schroedinger-like equation is constructed with the account of retardation effects and one-loop radiative corrections. It consists of the one-gluon exchange…
Chiral effective theory of scalar and vector diquarks is formulated according to the linear sigma model. The main application is to describe the ground and excited states of singly heavy baryons with a charm or bottom quark. Applying the…
We review the experimental and theoretical status of baryons containing one heavy quark. The charm and bottom baryon states are classified and their mass spectra are listed. The appropriate theoretical framework for the description of heavy…
We use rigorous QCD dispersion relations to derive model-independent bounds on the B -> pi l nu, D -> pi l nu and D -> K l nu form factors. These bounds are particularly restrictive when the value of the observable form factor at one or…
The strong and radiative decays of the low-lying $\lambda$-mode $D$-wave $\Lambda_{c(b)}$, $\Sigma_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}'$, and $\Omega_{c(b)}$ baryons are studied in a constituent quark model. Our calculation shows the…
Assuming the existence of a heavy Majorana neutral particle arising from a composite model scenario we discuss the constraints imposed by present experimental limits of half-life neutrinoless double beta decay $(0\nu\beta\beta ) $…
When the cancellation of the leading renormalon contributions is incorporated, the total energy of a b bbar system, E_{tot,bbbar}(r) = 2 m_{pole,b} + V_QCD(r), agrees well with the potentials used in phenomenological models for heavy…
Recent work on using density dependent $\Lambda$-nuclear optical potentials in calculations of $\Lambda$-hypernuclear binding energies is reviewed. It is found that all known $\Lambda$ binding energies in the mass range $16 \leq A \leq 208$…
In the framework of the effective field theory method, we use the experimental data and the perturbative unitarity bounds to determine the values and uncertainty of all the 11 chiral coefficients ($\al_i, i=0, ..., 10$) of the standard…
We explore the opportunity to look for quark compositeness in the early stages of the LHC running by analyzing high-$E_T$ dijet production. The quark substructure that will manifest itself by affecting various kinematic distributions at the…
