A large number of experimental discoveries especially in the heavy quarkonium sector that
did not meet the expectations of the until then very successful quark model led to a …

A golden age for heavy-quarkonium physics dawned a decade ago, initiated by the
confluence of exciting advances in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and an explosion of …

The inspiration for this book came from François le Diberder. During his term as
spokesperson for B 八 B 八 R he laid down a vision for the two B Factory detector …

We highlight the progress, current status, and open challenges of QCD-driven physics, in
theory and in experiment. We discuss how the strong interaction is intimately connected to a …

A new quark-field smearing algorithm is defined which enables efficient calculations of a
broad range of hadron correlation functions. The technique applies a low-rank operator to …

We present a detailed description of the extraction of the highly excited isovector meson
spectrum on dynamical anisotropic lattices using a new quark-field construction algorithm …

Valuable data on quarkonia (the bound states of a heavy quark Q= c, b and the
corresponding antiquark) have recently been provided by a variety of sources, mainly e+ e …

We present the first light-hadron spectroscopy on a set of N f= 2+ 1 dynamical, anisotropic
lattices. A convenient set of coordinates that parameterize the two-dimensional plane of light …

We study charmonium and bottomonium as relativistic bound states in a light-front quantized
Hamiltonian formalism. The effective Hamiltonian is based on light-front holography. We use …

The charmonium spectrum is calculated with two nonrelativistic quark models, the linear
potential model, and the screened potential model. Using the obtained wave functions, we …
