    Heavy Hadrons and QCD Instantons

    Full text link
    Heavy hadrons are analyzed in a random and dilute gas of instantons. We derive the instanton-induced interactions between heavy and light quarks at next to leading order in the heavy quark mass and in the planar approximation, and discuss their effects on the hadronic spectrum. The role of these interactions in the formation of exotic hadrons is also discussed.Comment: 26 pages, REVTeX, 2 tables, 5 figures, uses FEYNMAN.st

    Scattering Through QCD Sphalerons

    Get PDF
    Diffractive parton-parton scattering in the soft pomeron regime can be explained by the production of a QCD sphaleron. Sphaleron production results into the emission of 3+2NF3+2N_F gluons and quarks. At RHIC we expect many sphalerons to be released thereby affecting most prompt processes.Comment: Contribution to quark matter 200
