A search for charmonium and other new states is performed in a study of exclusive initial-state-radiation production of D Dbar events from electron-positron annihilations at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV. The data sample corresponds…
The hadronic two-body weak decays of the doubly charmed baryons $\Xi_{cc}^{++}, \Xi_{cc}^+$ and $\Omega_{cc}^+$ are studied in this work. To estimate the nonfactorizable contributions, we work in the pole model for the $P$-wave amplitudes…

We study the electron-phonon relaxation (dephasing) rate in disordered semiconductors and low-dimensional structures. The relaxation is determined by the interference of electron scattering via the deformation potential and elastic electron…
We estimate the most important corrections to the branching ratios for the invisible decays of quarkonium states, arising from possible extensions of the standard model. Among the possibilities considered are the presence of extra Z-bosons,…
We show that characteristics of the electron's form factor in two-dimensional materials are observable in quasiparticle interference (QPI) spectrum. We study QPI in twisted bilayer graphene using real-space tight-binding calculations…
Inspired by recent observation of charged charmoniumlike structure $Z_c(4025)$, we explore the $Y(4260)\to (D^*\bar{D}^*)^- \pi^+$ decay through the initial-single-pion-emission mechanism, where the $D^*\bar{D}^*\to D^*\bar{D}^*$…
We discuss the puzzling experimental results on baryon-antibaryon production in e+e- annihilation close to the threshold, in particular the fact that sigma(e+e- --> nbar n) >~ sigma(e+e- --> pbar p). We discuss an interpretation in terms of…
Recently, the BES collaboration has published an extensive partial wave analysis of experimental data on J/psi -> phi pi+pi-, J/psi -> omega pi+pi-, J/psi -> phi K+K- and J/psi -> omega K+K-. These new results are analyzed here, with full…
The construction of positronium decay amplitudes is handled through the use of dispersion relations. In this way, emphasis is put on basic QED principles: gauge invariance and soft-photon limits (analyticity). A firm grounding is given to…
The low-mass dielectron signal from heavy-ion collisions at the CERN--SPS reported by the {\em CERES} collaboration is in excess of estimated hadronic decays suggestive of possible contribution from two-pion annihilation or other hadronic…
We examine the role of resonant coupled channel final state interactions (FSI), as well as weak annihilation and exchange contributions in explaining all the two body hadronic $D\rightarrow PP$ decay modes data. In the un-unitarized…
We propose that the broad $1^{--}$ resonance structure recently discovered by BES in $J/\psi\to K^{+}K^{-}\pi^{0}$ is the P-wave excitation of a diquark-antidiquark bound state. This interpretation implies that there exists a negative…
Unexpected features of the BaBar data on e+e- in baryon-antibaryon cross sections are discussed. These data have been collected, with unprecedented accuracy, by means of the initial state radiation technique, which is particularly suitable…
The near-threshold enhancement in the ppbar invariant mass spectrum from the B^+ -> K^+ ppbar decay reported recently by the BaBar Collaboration is studied within the J\"ulich NNbar model. We illustrate that the invariant mass dependence of…
The interference fragmentation function translates the fragmentation of a quark with a transverse projection of the spin into an azimuthal asymmetry of two final-state hadrons. In e+e- annihilation the product of two interference…
Using 347.5 fb-1 of data recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II electron-positron collider, 244*10^3 signal events for the D+ --> K- pi+ e+ nu_e decay channel are analyzed. This decay mode is dominated by the \bar{K}^*(892)^0…
We investigate $S$-wave coupled-channel effects in $e^+e^-$ annihilation in the energy region $\sqrt{s}\in[4.0,5.5]\,\mathrm{GeV}$, including the open-charm final states $\Lambda_c^+\bar{\Lambda}_c^-$, $\Xi_c^+\bar{\Xi}_c^-$,…
The spectrum and dominant strong decay properties of the doubly heavy baryons are revisited by using a chiral effective model with chiral partner structure. By regarding the doubly heavy baryons in the ground states and light angular…
