Pentaquarks on the light front, and their mixture with baryons

Nicholas Miesch, Edward Shuryak, Ismail Zahed

In previous papers we developed the light front formulation for Hamiltonians and wave functions (WFs) for mesons and baryons, with both confinement and chiral symmetry breaking. Fo…

Pentaquarks made of light quarks and their admixture to baryons

Nicholas Miesch, Edward Shuryak, Ismail Zahed

This paper is a continuation of our studies of multiquark hadrons. The anti-symmetrization of their wavefunctions required by Fermi statistics is nontivial, as it mixes orbital, co…

D-shell mixing in light baryons and its effect on the orbital motion

Nicholas Miesch, Edward Shuryak, Ismail Zahed

The standard description of the nucleon in the non-relativistic quark model is an state without orbital motion. Yet, there are several indications from phenomenology that…

Wave functions of multiquark hadrons from representations of the symmetry groups

Nicholas Miesch, Edward Shuryak

Construction of the wave functions of multiquark hadrons by traditional method based on tensor products of colors, flavors, spins (and orbital) parts becomes quite complex when qua…

Bridging hadronic and vacuum structure by heavy quarkonia

Nicholas Miesch, Edward Shuryak, Ismail Zahed

We discuss the central and, mostly, spin-dependent potentials in heavy quarkonia , with two goals in mind. The first is phenomenological: using the splitting be…

Hadronic structure on the light-front IX . Orbital-spin-isospin wave functions of baryons

Nicholas Miesch, Edward Shuryak, Ismail Zahed

This paper which is part of a series, is devoted to several technical issues. In the first part of the paper, we discuss the usual wavefunctions in the CM frame for baryons, by cla…

Baryons and tetraquarks using instanton-induced interactions

Nicholas Miesch, Edward Shuryak, Ismail Zahed

We analyze some aspects of the perturbative and non-perturbative interactions in the composition of heavy quarkonia, heavy and light baryons ( and ones), as well as all…

Mass-induced confinement near the sill of the conformal window

Roman Marcarelli, Nicholas Miesch, Ethan T. Neil

We revisit standard arguments for hyperscaling of the spectrum when a non-zero fermion mass is introduced to a gauge-fermion theory which is conformal in the infrared limit. With s…

Searching for Flavor-Violating ALPs in Higgs Decays

Hooman Davoudiasl, Roman Marcarelli, Nicholas Miesch +1

Pseudo-scalar particles, often referred to as axion-like-particles (ALPs), arise in a variety of theoretical contexts. The phenomenology of such states is typically studied assumin…
