Recent progress on QCD inputs for axion phenomenology [PDF]
The properties of the QCD axion are strictly related to the dependence of strong interactions on the topological parameter theta. We present a determination of the topological properties of QCD for temperatures up to around 600 MeV, obtained by lattice ...

Nonperturbative QCD Phenomenology and Light Quark Physics [PDF]
Recent progress in modeling QCD for hadron physics through truncated Dyson-Schwinger equations is reviewed. Special emphasis is put upon comparison of dressed quark propagators and the dressed quark-gluon vertex with lattice-QCD results.

Heavy quark phenomenology from lattice QCD [PDF]
Recent results relevant for the B-physics phenomenology, obtained from lattice QCD simulations by the APE Collaboration, are reviewed. This includes the B0-B0bar mixing amplitude, B-> pi semileptonic decay and the relative width difference of B0_s mesons, $( / )_{B_s}$.

Theory and phenomenology of the Polyakov loop in QCD thermodynamics [PDF]
A synthesis of Polyakov loop models of the deconfinement transition and quasiparticle models of gluon plasma thermodynamics leads to a class of models in which gluons move in a non-trivial Polyakov loop background. These models are successful candidates for explaining both critical behavior and the equation of state for the SU(3) gauge theory at finite

QCD Phenomenology and Heavy Ion Physics [PDF]
We describe application of saturation/Color Glass Condensate physics to heavy ion collisions, concentrating on several important observables. We show how simple saturationinspired assumptions about particle production in heavy ion collisions allow one to accurately describe total charged particle multiplicity as a function of the collision's centrality,

From Sakata Model to Goldberg-Ne'eman Quarks and Nambu QCD Phenomenology and “Right" and “Wrong" Experiments [PDF]
The basic theoretical milestones were the Sakata SU(3) symmetry, the GoldbergNe’eman composite model with SU(3) triplets having baryon number (1/3) and the Nambu color gauge Lagrangian.

Quark formation and phenomenology in binary neutron-star mergers using V-QCD [PDF]
Using full 3+1 dimensional general-relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of equal- and unequal-mass neutron-star binaries with properties that are consistent with those inferred from the inspiral of GW170817, we perform a detailed study of the quark ...

Theoretical tools for neutrino scattering: interplay between lattice QCD, EFTs, nuclear physics, phenomenology, and neutrino event generators [PDF]
Maximizing the discovery potential of increasingly precise neutrino experiments will require an improved theoretical understanding of neutrino-nucleus cross sections over a wide range of energies.
