Relativistic effects in a three-body calculation of the $np\to\eta d$ process are considered. Relativistic effects on the range and strength of the pion exchange contribution to the reaction mechanism may be large, but boost effects of the…
A chiral quark-model approach is adopted to study the $\gamma p\rightarrow \eta'p$ and $\gamma n\rightarrow \eta' n$. Good descriptions of the recent observations from CLAS and CBELSA/TAPS are obtained. Both of the processes are governed by…

The $\eta$ meson can be bound to atomic nuclei. Experimental search is discussed in the form of final state interaction for the reactions $dp\to{^3\text{He}}\eta$ and $dd\to{^4\text{He}}\eta$. For the latter case tensor polarized deuterons…
