The K^- induced production of Lambda(1405) in the K^- d to pi Sigma n reaction is investigated having in mind the conditions of the DAFNE facility at Frascati where kaons are obtained from the decay of slow moving phi mesons. We find that…

We investigate the A$(\pi^+,K^+){_\Lambda}$A reaction within a covariant model. We consider those amplitudes which are described by creation, propagation and decay into relevant channel of $N^*$(1650), $N^*$(1710), and $N^*$(1720)…

The $\Lambda(1520)$ resonance is generated dynamically in a unitary coupled channel framework with the $\pi\Sigma^*$ and $K\Xi^*$ channels in s-wave and $\pi\Sigma$ and $\bar K N$ channels in d-wave. The dynamics of this resonance close to…

The energy dependence of the reactions pp -> p Lambda K+ and pp -> p Sigma0 K+ and the ratio R(Lambda/Sigma0} is studied in a constituent quark-gluon model, including the excitation of the baryon resonances N*(1650), N*(1710) and N*(1720)…

We investigate the $A(p,K^+){_\Lambda}B$ reaction within a covariant two nucleon model. We focus on amplitudes which are described by creation, propagation and decay into relevant channel of $N^*$(1650), $N^*$(1710), and $N^*$(1720)…

We investigate the p(gamma,K+)Lambda and p(gamma,K+)Sigma^0 reactions within a coupled-channels effective-Lagrangian method which is based on the K-matrix approach. The two-body final channels included are pi-N, eta-N, phi-N, rho-N,…

We have investigated the $\Lambda_c^+\to n\pi^+\pi^0$ decay process using the chiral unitary approach, by considering that the nucleon resonance $N(1535)$ could be dynamically generated through $S$-wave pseudoscalar meson-octet baryon…

We examine the radiative decays of the Lambda (1405) to octet baryons, Lambda + gamma and Sigma + gamma. In the limit of SU(3) symmetry the decay rates for these two modes are related, and we compute the leading correction to the relation…

For the study of the $\Sigma$ resonances, we analyze the differential cross sections and $\Lambda$ polarizations for the reactions $K^-n\to\pi^-\Lambda$ and $K^-p\to\pi^0\Lambda$ with an effective Lagrangian approach. Data of an early…

In this report, we present our recent studies on the Lambda(1405,1/2-)=Lambda* photoproduction via the gamma p -> K+ pi Sigma scattering process, employing a coupled-channel formalism, i.e., the chiral unitary model, which respects chiral…

We study from the theoretical point of view the $\Lambda_c^+\to \pi^+ \eta \Lambda$ reaction, recently measured by the Belle and BESIII Collaborations, where clear signals are observed for $a_0(980)$, $\Lambda(1670)$, and $\Sigma(1385)$…

Results for the reaction gamma p --> K+ Lambda, studied within a constituent quark model and a dynamical coupled-channel approach, are presented and compared with recent data. Issues related to the search for missing baryon resonances are…

The internal structure of the resonant Lambda(1405) state is investigated based on meson-baryon coupled-channels chiral dynamics, by evaluating density distributions obtained from the form factors of the Lambda(1405) state. The form factors…

We present a theoretical study of $\Xi^*(1690)$ resonance in the $\Lambda_c^+ \to \Lambda K^+ \bar{K}^0$ decay, where the weak interaction part proceeds through the Cabibbo-favored process $c \to s + u\bar{d}$. Next, the intermediate two…

The unquenched quark models predict the new particle $\Sigma^*$ with spin parity $J^P=1/2^-$ and its mass is around the well established $\Sigma^*(1385)$ with $J^P=3/2^+$. Here by using the effective Lagrangian approach we study \kp\…

We investigate Lambda(1405) as a resonance in a coupled channel baryon-meson scattering with a `bound state embedded in the continuum'(BSEC). This BSEC is introduced by hand, as a state not originated from simple baryon-meson systems. We…

Using a chiral unitary approach for meson-baryon scattering in the strangeness zero sector, where the $N^*(1535)$ resonance is dynamically generated, we study the reactions $\gamma p \to \pi^0 \eta p$ and $\gamma p \to \pi^0 K^0 \Sigma^+$…

We discuss several aspects of the Lambda(1405) resonance in relation to the recent theoretical developments in chiral dynamics. We derive an effective single-channel KbarK N interaction based on chiral SU(3) coupled-channel approach,…

We develop a model that describes the gamma p -> K^+ pi Sigma reaction in the Lambda(1405) region. The model consists of gauge invariant photo-production mechanisms, and the chiral unitary model that gives the rescattering amplitudes where…
