The LHCb collaboration have recently updated their analysis of the resonant $J/\psi p$ mass spectrum in the decay $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi p K^-$, making use of their combined Run 1 and Run 2 data. In the updated analysis, three narrow…
We investigate the observed pentaquark candidates $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ from the latest LHCb measurement, as well as four possible spin partners in the $\bar{D}^{(*)}\Sigma_c^*$ system predicted from the heavy quark spin…
A study of the decay channels Lambda_{b}-->Lambda V, where V is a vector meson (1^-), has been done by putting together kinematical and dynamical analysis. An intensive use of the helicity formalism is involved on the kinematical side,…
Two body weak processes $\Lambda N \leftrightarrow NN$ are studied from the viewpoint of quark substructure of baryons.They can be studied in nonmesonic weak decays of hypernuclei and also hyperon production in the $NN$ scattering. The…
We calculate light-front wave functions of mesons, baryons and pentaquarks in a model including constituent mass (representing chiral symmetry breaking), harmonic confining potential, and 4-quark local interaction of 't Hooft type. The…
We study the spectrum of the isoscalar pentaquark $udsc\overline{c}$, of either positive or negative parity, in a constituent quark model with linear confinement and a flavor-spin hyperfine interaction previously extended to SU(4) and used…
The quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, which has been successfully used to describe the properties of both infinite nuclear matter and finite nuclei, is applied to a systematic study of $\Lambda, \Sigma$ and $\Xi$ hypernuclei. Assumptions…
The lineshape of the Lambda(1405) was studied in the pp -> pK+ Y0 reaction at a beam momentum of 3.65 GeV/c at COSY-Juelich. The ANKE spectrometer was used to identify two protons, one positively charged kaon, and one negatively charged…
We use a constituent model to analyze the stability of pentaquark $\bar Q qqqq$ configurations with a heavy antiquark $\bar c$ or $\bar b$, and four light quarks $uuds$, $ddsu$ or $ssud$. The interplay between chromoelectric and…
Using the picture of the flux tube model, we propose that the $\Theta_5$ pentaquark as the first candidate of the three-dimensional non-planar hadron with the extremely stable diamond structure. The up and down quarks lie at the corners of…
Recently, the 1/Nc expansion has been applied to the study of exotic baryons containing both quarks and antiquarks. We extend this approach to exotic states with mixed symmetric spin-flavor symmetry, which correspond in the quark model to…
The negative-parity ground state of the \Lambda{} baryon lies surprisingly low in mass. At 1405.1 MeV, it lies lower than the negative-parity ground state nucleon, even though it has a valence strange quark. Using the PACS-CS (2+1)-flavour…
We performed a coincidence measurement of two nucleons emitted from the nonmesonic weak decay (NMWD) of ^{5}_{\Lambda}He formed via the ^{6}Li(\pi^+,K^+) reaction. The energies of two nucleons and the pair number distributions in the…
We propose a new QCD sum rule analysis for the Lambda(1405) and the Sigma(1620). Using the I=0 and I=1 multiquark sum rules we predict their masses.
We discuss various topics in the theory of heavy baryon decays. Among these are recent applications of the Relativistic Three Quark Model to semileptonic, nonleptonic, one-pion and one-photon transitions among heavy baryons, new higher…
An amplitude analysis of $B^-\to J/\psi\Lambda\bar{p}$ decays is performed using about 4400 signal candidates selected on a data sample of $pp$ collisions recorded at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 TeV with the LHCb detector,…
We present a model for the structure of baryons in which the valence partons interact through a linear potential. This model can be derived from QCD in the approximation where transverse momenta are ignored. We compare the valence quark…
Using the SU6 quark-model baryon-baryon interaction recently developed by the Kyoto-Niigata group, we calculate NN, Lambda N and Sigma N G-matrices in ordinary nuclear matter. This is the first attempt to discuss the Lambda and Sigma…
The non--mesonic weak decay of polarized $\Lambda$-hypernuclei is studied with a microscopic diagrammatic formalism in which one- and two-nucleon induced decay mechanisms, $\vec{\Lambda} N \to NN$ and $\vec{\Lambda} NN \to NNN$, are…
Semileptonic decays of heavy baryons consisting of one heavy (Q=b,c) and two light (q=u,d,s) quarks are considered in the heavy-quark--light-diquark approximation. The relativistic quasipotential equation is used for obtaining masses and…
