dc.description.abstractPart I Proposed Experimental Tests of the Right-handed Weak Current All possible experiments which test the SU(2)<sub>L</sub> x U(1)<sub>R</sub> x U(1)<sub>B-L</sub> model and SU(2)<sub>L</sub> x SU(2)<sub>R</sub> x U(1)<sub>B-L</sub> model using the LEP e⁺e⁻ collider and HERA e⁻p collider are calculated and the most sensitive experiments are examined. Part II Semi-Phenomenological Theory of (Qq̅) System The (QQ̅) and (Qq̅) mesons are calculated using a QCD motivated potential model. It is discovered that by including a long distance relativistic correction term derived by Grome, the Coulomb + Linear potential works not only for c and b quarks, but s quark as well. The leptonic decay constants of various (Qq̅) mesons together with their masses are predicted. The topponium states are also discussed.en
