Event details
We summarise recent theoretical results on the spectrum and properties of zero, two, and four-quark states obtained from functional QCD using Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter equations. We discuss the spectrum of glueballs in Yang-Mills theory and prospects to study their properties in QCD. We discuss the effects of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking on the spectrum of scalar mesons and address the flavour dependence and the internal structure of four-quark states with open and hidden charm and bottom content.
About Particle Physics Theory seminars
The Particle Physics Theory seminar is a weekly series of talks reflecting the diverse interests of the group. Topics include analytic and numerical calculations based on the Standard Model of elementary particle physics, theories exploring new physics, as well as more formal developments in gauge theories and gravity..
