    The holographic Schrodinger Equation is to hadron physics what the ordinary Schrodinger Equation is to atomic physics. The ordinary Schrodinger Equation emerges from Quantum Electrodynamics in the non-relativistic limit while the holographic Schrodinger Equation emerges from Quantum Chromodynamics, quantized at equal light-front (not ordinary) time, in the so-called semi-classical...

    Hybrids are hypothesized hadrons containing explicit quark, antiquark, and gluon degrees of freedom. D-hybrids are hybrids containing a charm quark and a light quark (i.e., up, down, or strange). We use QCD sum-rules to predict masses of spin-0,1 D-hybrids of both positive and negative parity. Our correlator calculations take into account condensates up to and including those of...

    We study the phenomenology of a supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model with an $R$-symmetry under which $R$-charges correspond to the baryon number. This identification allows for the presence in the superpotential of the $R$-parity violating term $\lambda''U^c D^c D^c$ without breaking baryon number, which loosens several bounds on this operator while changing considerably the...

    We present our predictions for pion mean charge radius, decay constant, spacelike electromagnetic form factor, twist-2 Distribution Amplitude and the photon-to-pion transition form factor when a dynamical spin structure for the pseudoscalar particle is considered along with a holographic light-front wavefunction. Our results show significant improvement in agreement with available data.
