Quantum Chromodynamics and Statistical Physics
by Stephane Munier
Publisher: arXiv 2014
Number of pages: 58
Description:
In these lectures, we first introduce the basic concepts in the context of simple toy models, we study the properties of the latter, and show how the results obtained for the simple models may be taken over to quantum chromodynamics.

Hadronic Atoms in QCD + QEDby J. Gasser, V.E. Lyubovitskij, A. Rusetsky - arXiv.org
We review the theory of hadronic atoms in QCD + QED based on a non-relativistic effective Lagrangian framework. We provide an introduction to the theory and describe several applications: meson-meson, meson-nucleon atoms and meson-deuteron compounds.
