Hints for the existence of hexaquark states in the baryon-antibaryon sector

Mario Abud, Franco Buccella, Francesco Tramontano

The discovery of some baryon-antibaryon resonances has led us to consider 3q~3\bar{q} systems as possible candidates. We predict their spectrum in the framework of a constituent mo…

On the Evaluation of Gluon Condensate Effects in the Holographic Approach to QCD

Luigi Cappiello, Giancarlo D'Ambrosio

In holographic QCD the effects of gluonic condensate can be encoded in a suitable deformation of the 5D metric. We develop two different methods for the evaluation of first order p…

Determining alpha_s from the hyperfine splitting mUpsilon(1S)-mEta(b)

Pietro Colangelo, Pietro Santorelli, Egidio Scrimieri

The measurement of the eta_b mass, together with a QCD result for the hyperfine splitting E_{HFS}=M_{Upsilon(1S)}-M_{eta_b}, allows us to determine the strong coupling constant alp…

Neutrino phenomenology and unparticle physics

J. Barranco, A. Bolanos, O. G. Miranda +2

We show how neutrino data can be used in order to constrain the free parameters of possible extensions to the standard model of elementary particles (SM). For definiteness, we focu…

NLO predictions for t-channel production of single top and fourth generation quarks at hadron colliders

John M. Campbell, Rikkert Frederix, Fabio Maltoni +1

We present updated NLO predictions for the electroweak t-channel production of heavy quarks at the Tevatron and at the LHC. We consider production of single top and fourth generati…

CPT-violating neutrino oscillations

S. Esposito, G. Salesi

We propose a simple phenomenological model predicting, through Lorentz symmetry breaking, a CPT-violating asymmetry between particle and antiparticle states in neutrino oscillation…

A global fit to determine the pseudoscalar mixing angle and the gluonium content of the eta' meson

F. Ambrosino, A. Antonelli, M. Antonelli +54

We update the values of the eta-eta' mixing angle and of the eta' gluonium content by fitting our measurement R_phi = BR(phi to eta' gamma)/ BR(phi to eta gamma) together with seve…

How is transversity related to helicity for quarks and antiquarks inside the proton?

C. Bourrely, F. Buccella, J. Soffer

We consider the quark and antiquark transversity distributions inside a polarized proton and we study how they are expected to be related to the corresponding helicity distribution…

On the phase-integral method for the radial Dirac equation

Giampiero Esposito, Pietro Santorelli

In the application of potential models, the use of the Dirac equation in central potentials remains of phenomenological interest. The associated set of decoupled second-order ordin…

Next-to-leading-order predictions for t-channel single-top production at hadron colliders

John M. Campbell, Rikkert Frederix, Fabio Maltoni +1

We present the predictions at next-to-leading order (NLO) in the strong coupling for the single-top cross section in the t channel at the Tevatron and the LHC. Our calculation star…

Low Energy Antineutrino Detection Using Neutrino Capture on EC Decaying Nuclei

Alfredo G. Cocco, Gianpiero Mangano, Marcello Messina

In this paper we present a study of the interaction of low energy electron antineutrino on nuclei that undergo electron capture. We show that the two corresponding crossed reaction…

J/psi production at HERA

P. Artoisenet, J. Campbell, F. Maltoni +1

We consider the J/psi photo-production data collected at HERA in the light of next-to-leading order predictions for the color-singlet yield and polarization. We find that, while th…

Unparticle physics and neutrino phenomenology

J. Barranco, A. Bolanos, O. G. Miranda +2

We have constrained unparticle interactions with neutrinos and electrons using available data on neutrino-electron elastic scattering and the four CERN LEP experiments data on mono…
