Evidence for particle stability of Lambda-Lambda hydrogen-4 (4LLH) has been suggested by the BNL-AGS E906 experiment. We report on Faddeev-Yakubovsky calculations for the four-body Lambda-Lambda-p-n system using Lambda-N interactions which…
Arguments in favor of a light $\Xi NN$ hypernucleus with $(I)J^P=(3/2)1/2^+$ are presented, within the uncertainties of our knowledge of the baryon-baryon strangeness $-2$ interactions. If bound, this $\Xi NN$ state, being decoupled from…
We perform a direct finite nucleus calculation of the partial width of a bound Delta isobar decaying through the non-mesonic decay mode, Delta N -> NN. This transition is modeled by the exchange of the long ranged pi meson and the shorter…
The non-mesonic weak decay of $\Lambda$-hypernuclei is studied within a microscopic diagrammatic approach which includes, for the first time, the effect or the $\Delta$-baryon resonance. We adopt a nuclear matter formalism extended to…
The Faddeev equations for the $\Xi NN$ bound-state problem are solved where the three $S$=$-2$ baryon-baryon interactions of J\"ulich-Bonn-M\"unchen chiral EFT, HAL QCD and Nijmegen ESC08c are used. The $T$-matrix $T_{\Xi N, \Xi N}$…
We theoretically investigate a possibility of an $\eta ^{\prime} d$ bound state and its formation in the $\gamma d \to \eta d$ reaction. First, in the fixed center approximation to the Faddeev equations we obtain an $\eta ^{\prime} d$ bound…
The problem of nucleon resonances N' with masses below the Delta is considered. We derive bounds for the properties of such states. Some of these are new, while others improve upon existing limits. We discuss the nature of N' states, and…
We report our recent effort for the extraction of resonance parameters (complex pole mass and residues etc.) associated with Lambda* and Sigma* hyperons. This was accomplished via a comprehensive partial-wave analysis of the data for K^- p…
We perform a detailed study of the $\Upsilon$-, $\eta_b$-, and $B_c$-nucleus systems in momentum space to calculate the bound-state energies and the corresponding coordinate-space radial wave functions. The attractive strong potentials for…
The possibility for the existence of unstable bound states of the S11 nucleon resonance N$^*$(1535) and nuclei is investigated. These quasibound states are speculated to be closely related to the existence of the quasibound states of the…
We discuss a new type of L=0 positive-parity dibaryons, pion-B-B', where the dominant binding mechanism is provided by resonating p-wave pion-baryon interactions. Recent calculations of such pion assisted dibaryons are reviewed with special…
We study the $s$-wave kaon-nucleon bound state with the strangeness $S=-1$ in the Bethe-Salpeter formalism in the ladder and instantaneous approximations. We solve the Bethe-Salpeter equation of the bound state and obtain the Bethe-Salpeter…
We report our recent work on a hadronic molecule state of the KbarKN system with I=1/2 and J^P=1/2^+. We assume that the Lambda(1405) resonance and the scalar mesons, f_{0}(980), a_{0}(980), are reproduced as quasi-bound states of KbarN and…
A new result for the nucleon sigma term from an updated pion-nucleon partial-wave and dispersion relation analysis of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute (now George Washington University) group is discussed. Using a method similar to that…
Possible $\Lambda_c\Lambda_c$ hadronic molecule is investigated in the one-pion-exchange potential model. In the study with this model, the heavier meson exchange effects are encoded into a phenomenological cutoff parameter and couplings to…
We have searched for a bound state of kaon and pion denoted by $X$. The $X$ was conjectured to explain the so-called $\Theta^+$ resonance as a bound state of kaon, pion and nucleon. This model explains almost all properties of the…
A hypothesis is proposed herein, suggesting that a pion-nuclear resonance may be observed in the $\alpha+d\to{}^6\mathrm{Li}(3.563)+\pi^0$ reaction. The resonance has a $\pi NN\alpha$ structure, containing $\alpha NN$ and $\pi NN$…
The nature of the $\Lambda nn$ and ${\rm ^3_\Lambda H^*} (J^\pi=3/2^+,~I=0)$ states is investigated within a pionless effective field theory at leading order, constrained by the low energy $\Lambda N$ scattering data and hypernuclear 3- and…
Recent experimental evidence presented by the FINUDA Collaboration for a particle-stable Lambda-6H has stirred renewed interest in charting domains of particle-stable neutron-rich Lambda hypernuclei, particularly for unbound nuclear cores.…
Following a recent suggestion that the $\Theta ^+$ could be a $K \pi N$ bound state we perform an investigation under the light of the meson meson and meson baryon dynamics provided by the chiral Lagrangians and using methods currently…
