A simultaneous fit is performed to the $e^+e^-\to \Lambda_c^+\Lambda_c^-$ cross section data measured by Belle and BESIII from threshold up to 5.4 GeV. In order to accommodate both the BESIII measurement near threshold and the Belle…
We calculate the $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ partial decay width of the excited vector charmonium states around 4.6 GeV with the quark pair creation model. We find that the partial decay width of the $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ mode can reach…
We report a measurement of the exclusive e+e- -->Lambda_c+ Lambda_c- cross section as a function of center-of-mass energy near the Lambda_c+ Lambda_c- threshold. A clear peak with a significance of 8.2 sigma is observed in the Lambda_c+…
Cross sections for hyperon pair production from two-photon collisions, $\gamma\gamma\to\Lambda\bar{\Lambda},\Sigma^0\bar{\Sigma^0}$, are measured in the 2-4 GeV energy region at Belle, using 464 fb$^{-1}$ of data. A contribution from the…
Earlier this year, the Belle collaboration presented their new measurements of $R_D$ and $R_{D^*}$ using a new method. These measurements are consistent with the Standard Model predictions, whereas the global averages of the earlier…
Stringent relations between the $B^{(*)} \to D^{(*)} $ form factors exist in the heavy quark limit and the leading symmetry breaking corrections are known. We reconsider their uncertainty and role in the analysis of recent Belle data for…
We analyze two recent reactions of Belle, producing $D\bar D$ and $D\bar D^*$ states that have an enhancement of the invariant $D\bar D$, $D\bar D^*$ mass distribution close to threshold, from the point of view that they might be indicative…
In two recent reactions by Belle producing $D\bar D$ and $D\bar D^*$ meson pairs, peaks above threshold have been measured in the differential cross sections, possibly indicating new resonances in these channels. We want to study such…
New BES and Belle data show a peak in the Y(4260) decay into J/psi plus one charged pion. We point out that the peak might correspond to a charged resonance at about 3880 MeV predicted time ago within a tetraquark model. The same tetraquark…
We have calculated the D-meson spectral density at finite temperature within a self-consistent coupled-channel approach that generates dynamically the $\Lambda_c$ (2593) resonance. We find a small mass shift for the D-meson in this hot and…
In this addendum to arXiv:1811.09603 we update our results including the recent measurement of ${\cal R}(D)$ and ${\cal R}(D^*)$ by the Belle collaboration: ${\cal R}(D)_{\rm Belle} = 0.307\pm0.037\pm0.016$ and ${\cal R}(D^*)_{\rm…
Semileptonic $b \to c$ transitions, and in particular the ratios $R(D^{(*)}) = \frac{\Gamma(B \rightarrow D^{(*)} \tau \nu )}{\Gamma(B \rightarrow D^{(*)} \ell \nu )}$, can be used to test the universality of the weak interactions. In light…
The process $\gamma \gamma \to \phi \jpsi$ is measured for $\phi \jpsi$ masses between threshold and 5 GeV/${\it c}^2$, using a data sample of 825 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector. A narrow peak of $8.8^{+4.2}_{-3.2}$ events,…
For the first time we search for the $\eta_{c2}(1D)$ in $e^+e^-\to\gamma\eta_{c2}(1D)$ at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.52, 10.58, and 10.867 GeV with data samples of 89.5 fb$^{-1}$, 711 fb$^{-1}$, and 121.4 fb$^{-1}$, respectively, accumulated with the…
In this work, we apply the vector meson dominance (VMD) model to extract the electromagnetic time-like form factor of the $D^*\to D$ transition combining the recent Belle data for $e^+ e^-\to D^{*+} D^- + c.c.$ and data for $D^*\to…
Using the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have studied the distribution of kinematic variables in the decay Lambda_c^+ -> Lambda e^+ nu_e. By performing a four-dimensional maximum likelihood fit, we determine the form…
Very recently a new enhancement around 4.05 GeV was observed by Belle experiment. In this short note, we discuss some possible assignments for this enhancement, i.e. $\psi(3S)$ and $D^*\bar{D}^*$ molecular state. In these two assignments,…
We observe the radiative decay $D^{*}_{s0}(2317)^{+} \to D_{s}^{*+} \gamma$ for the first time, with a significance exceeding $10$ standard deviations. The signal is found in the continuum $e^+ e^- \to c\bar{c}$ process with the combined…
