Masses of the \eta_c(nS) and \eta_b(nS) mesons
The hyperfine splittings in heavy quarkonia are studied using new
experimental data on the di-electron widths. The smearing of the spin-spin
interaction is taken into account, while the radius of smearing is fixed by the
known and splittings and appears to
be small, fm. Nevertheless, even with such a small radius
an essential suppression of the hyperfine splittings ( is observed
in bottomonium. For the states the values we
predict (in MeV) are 28, 12, 10, 6, 6, and 3, respectively. In single-channel
approximation for the and charmonium states the splittings 16(2) MeV
and 12(4) MeV are obtained.Comment: 13 pages, no figure
Chiral shifts in heavy-light mesons
The mass shifts of the -wave and mesons due to coupling to
and channels are calculated in the coupling channel model without
fitting parameters. The strong mass shifts down for and states
have been obtained, while and states remain almost in situ. The
masses of and states of mesons have been predicted.Comment: to be published in the Proceedings of the 14th International QCD

Nonperturbative hyperfine contribution to the and meson masses
Due to the nonperturbative contribution to the hyperfine splitting the mass
of the state is strongly correlated with the center of gravity of the multiplet: is less than by about 40 MeV (20 MeV) for the 1P (2P) state. For
the agreement with experiment is reached only if belongs to the
multiplet. The predicted mass of is MeV.
For the isoscalar meson a correlation between the mass of (1170)
and composed from light (strange) quarks also
takes place.Comment: 22 pages RevTe
Analytic Methods in Nonperturbative QCD
Recently developed analytic methods in the framework of the Field Correlator
Method are reviewed in this series of four lectures and results of calculations
are compared to lattice data and experiment. Recent lattice data demonstrating
the Casimir scaling of static quark interaction strongly support the FCM and
leave very little space for all other theoretical models, e.g. instanton
gas/liquid model. Results of calculations for mesons, baryons, quark-gluon
plasma and phase transition temperature demonstrate that new analytic methods
are a powerful tool of nonperturbative QCD along with lattice simulations.Comment: LaTeX, 34 pages; Lectures given at the 13th Indian-Summer School

Extended nonlocal chiral-quark model for the heavy-light quark systems
In this talk, we report the recent progress on constructing a
phenomenological effective model for the heavy-light quark systems, which
consist of (u,d,s,c,b) quarks, i.e. extended nonlocal chiral-quark model
(ExNLChQM). We compute the heavy-meson weak-decay constants to verify the
validity of the model. From the numerical results, it turns out that (f_D, f_B,
f_{D_s}, f_{B_s})=(207.54,208.13,262.56,262.39) MeV. These values are in
relatively good agreement with experimental data and various theoretical
estimations.Comment: 3 pages, 4 figures, Talk given at the 20th International IUPAP

Following Gluonic World Lines to Find the QCD Coupling in the Infrared
Using a parametrization of the Wilson loop with the minimal-area law, we
calculate the polarization operator of a valence gluon, which propagates in the
confining background. This enables us to obtain the infrared freezing (i.e.
finiteness) of the running strong coupling in the confinement phase, as well as
in the deconfinement phase up to the temperature of dimensional reduction. The
momentum scale defining the onset of freezing is found both analytically and
numerically. The nonperturbative contribution to the thrust variable,
originating from the freezing, makes the value of this variable closer to the
experimental one.Comment: 25 pages, 5 figure
Analysis of the vector and axialvector mesons with QCD sum rules
In this article, we study the vector and axialvector mesons with the
QCD sum rules, and make reasonable predictions for the masses and decay
constants, then calculate the leptonic decay widths. The present predictions
for the masses and decay constants can be confronted with the experimental data
in the future. We can also take the masses and decay constants as basic input
parameters and study other phenomenological quantities with the three-point
vacuum correlation functions via the QCD sum rules.Comment: 14 pages, 16 figure
Analysis of the radiative decays among the charmonium states
In this article, we study the radiative decays among the charmonium states
with the heavy quark effective theory, and make predictions for the ratios
among the radiative decay widths of an special multiplet to another multiplet.
The predictions can be confronted with the experimental data in the future and
put additional constraints in identifying the , , charmonium-like
mesons.Comment: 12 pages, revised revisio
Measurement of \Gamma_{ee}(J/\psi)*Br(J/\psi->e^+e^-) and \Gamma_{ee}(J/\psi)*Br(J/\psi->\mu^+\mu^-)
The products of the electron width of the J/\psi meson and the branching
fraction of its decays to the lepton pairs were measured using data from the
KEDR experiment at the VEPP-4M electron-positron collider. The results are
\Gamma_{ee}(J/\psi)*Br(J/\psi->e^+e^-)=(0.3323\pm0.0064\pm0.0048) keV,
\Gamma_{ee}(J/\psi)*Br(J/\psi->\mu^+\mu^-)=(0.3318\pm0.0052\pm0.0063) keV.
Their combinations
\Gamma_{ee}\times(\Gamma_{ee}+\Gamma_{\mu\mu})/\Gamma=(0.6641\pm0.0082\pm0.0100)
keV,
\Gamma_{ee}/\Gamma_{\mu\mu}=1.002\pm0.021\pm0.013 can be used to improve
theaccuracy of the leptonic and full widths and test leptonic universality.
Assuming e\mu universality and using the world average value of the lepton
branching fraction, we also determine the leptonic \Gamma_{ll}=5.59\pm0.12 keV
and total \Gamma=94.1\pm2.7 keV widths of the J/\psi meson.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure
