The light-quark sector of the Lambda(1405) baryon is examined in the context of the recent discovery of a dominant antikaon-nucleon composition at low quark masses. Further evidence for this interpretation of the Lambda(1405) is presented,…
We determine Lambda_msbar for QCD with n_f=2 dynamical quark flavors by fitting the Q-Q-bar static potential known analytically in the perturbative regime up to terms of O(alpha_s^4) and ~alpha_s^4 ln(alpha_s) to corresponding results…
We study the five-quark system composed of $qqs\bar{Q}Q$ configuration ($q = u$ or $d$, $Q=b$ or $c$), in the framework of the chiral quark model. In consequence, a series of bound states with heavy flavors are predicted by precise…

Recent lattice QCD calculations from the HAL and NPLQCD Collaborations have reported evidence for the existence of a bound state with strangeness -2 and baryon number 2 at quark masses somewhat higher than the physical values. A controlled…
We have studied the structure of K- pp by solving this system in a variational treatment, starting from ansatz that Lambda(1405) is a K-p quasi-bound state, Lambda* with mass 1405 MeV/c2. The structure of K-pp reveals a molecular feature,…

Low-lying $\Lambda$ baryons with spin 1/2 are analyzed in two-flavor lattice QCD. In order to extract two low-lying states for each parity, we construct $2 \times 2$ cross correlators from flavor SU(3) ``octet'' and ``singlet'' baryon…
