We review recent developments on the analysis of the Nucleon-Nucleon interaction with the corresponding propagation of statistical uncertainties originating from NN scattering experimental data. We also ponder on the consequences of this uncertainties on the predictive power of low energy chiral interactions and the required target numerical accuracy of nuclear structure calculations of light nuclei.

The structure of heavy mesons located above the thresholds for the open flavour production as been largely discussed in the recent years. The observation of charged exotic states highlighted the importance of the light quark degrees of freedom in the description of both quarkonia and bottomonia. We will report the most recent experimental measurements performed by the Belle collaboration...

The BESIII Experiment at the Beijing Electron Positron

collisions with center-of-mass above 4 GeV during 2013 and 2014. The
analysis of these samples has resulted in a number of surprising
discoveries, such as the discoveries of the electrically charged "Zc"
structures, which, if resonant, cannot be accomodated in...

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the theory of strong interactions, predicts several types of bound states. Among them are mesons (quark-antiquark) and baryons (quark-quark-quark), which have been the only states observed in experiments for years. However, in the last decade many states that do not fit this picture have been identified. There is growing evidence that at least some of the new...

There are several mesons whose $q\bar q$ quark-structure is doubted or even excluded. Therefore it is interesting to look for alternative structures for those candidates. Four-quark systems are a possible explanation. One way to approach four-quark models quantitatively is by means of lattice QCD.
We study the heavy-light four-quark system $b\bar b l \bar l$ ($B\bar B$) on the lattice. The...

With the high statistics of seven billion Au-Au collisions at 1.23 AGeV recorded in 2012 the investigation of high-order flow harmonics is possible.
Collective flow phenomena are a sensitive probe for the...

The future PANDA experiment at FAIR has a rich and broad physics program. Hyperon production and the study of their properties is one of them. Antihyperon-hyperon pairs can be produced in antiproton-proton collisions through the annihilation of at least one light (u, d) antiquark-quark pair and the creation of sbar s antiquark-quark pairs.
Ground state hyperons can only decay through the weak...

We discuss some properties of QCD at nonzero density and nonzero temperature. At nonzero density we describe the emergence of inhomogeneous quark-antiquark condensate in the framework of QCD effective models. We show that such an inhomogenous condensate is favored at high enough density. In particular, we use an effective hadronic model which makes use of chiral symmetry and includes a light...

P->l+l- proceeds via a two-photon intermediate state. Therefore it is a fourth order

Charmonium spectroscopy is an ideal tool to systematically study the strong interaction between the fundamental building blocks of matter, quarks and gluons. From a theoretical and experimental point of view, charmonium is considered as one of the most controllable two-quark systems. Hence, precision measurements of the properties of charmonia allow a thorough study of the non-perturbative...

We analyse the spectral function in the whole kaonic sector up to 1.8 GeV and determine the position of...

In the framework of the extended Linear Sigma Model we study four baryonic multiplets introduced via the mirror assignment, which allows chirally invariant mass terms. We first investigate formal features of a three-flavor treatment of the problem and then study the reduction to the two flavor case. In the latter, four baryonic doublets are present: the nucleon $N(939)$ and the Roper $N(1440)$...

Nuclear astrophysics is the study of the origin of the elements, nuclear energy generation in space, and the nature of ultradense matter. Experimental nuclear astrophysics studies require access to nuclides across nearly the whole nuclear chart, from the proton dripline to the neutron dripline. In order to reach these extremes, cutting-edge rare isotope facilities such as FAIR are required. I...

Exclusive binary annihilation reactions induced by antiprotons of momentum from 1.5 to 15 GeV/c can be extensively investigated at FAIR/PANDA [1]. The hadronization process (how a hadron is built from the quantum vacuum created by the pp annihilation and how does it mass, and quantum numbers arise) is the most fundamental problem in QCD. We are specially interested in the channel of charged...

The dynamical evolution of the color field is coupled to the dynamics of the many particles system produced by the decay, which is described by relativistic kinetic theory at fixed viscosity to entropy density ratio η/s. The backreaction of...

Virtual photon decays to lepton pairs are considered as an ideal probe to access information of all stages of heavy-ion collisions. However, this probe is very rare and is surrounded by a high track density environment produced in heavy-ion collisions. This complicates the track reconstruction and makes identification of lepton pairs challenging.

Baryon number density perturbations offer a possible route to experimentally measure baryon number susceptibilities and heat conductivity of the quark gluon plasma.

To that end we use a background-fluctuation...
