A search for the rare two-body charmless baryonic decay $B^+ \to p \bar\Lambda$ is performed with $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3\,\mbox{fb}^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass…
The spectrum of the $c qq$ baryons contains a few states whose nature is not clearly a three-quark composite and which might have a sizable baryon-meson component. Examples include the $\Sigma_c(2800)$ or the $\Lambda_c(2940)$. Here we…
Pion exchange in S-wave between hadrons that are themselves in a relative S-wave is shown to shift energies by hundreds of MeV, leading to deeply bound quasi-molecular states. In the case of charmed mesons $D^*,D_1$ a spectroscopy arises…
We explore the recently observed $\Xi_b(6227)^{-}$ resonance to fix its quantum numbers. To this end, we consider various possible scenarios: It can be considered as either 1P/2S excitations of the $\Xi_b^-$ and $\Xi_b'(5935)^{-}$ ground…
A resonance $Y(4630)$ at the invariant mass spectrum of $\Lambda_c \bar\Lambda_c$ observed by the Belle Collaboration triggers a hot discussion about its inner structure. Since it preferably decays into two charmed baryons…
Due to an excellent mass resolution and a large amount of available data, the CDF experiment, located at the Tevatron proton-antiproton accelerator, allows the precise measurement of spectroscopic properties, like mass and decay width, of a…
The $\Lambda_c^+K^-$ mass spectrum is studied with a data sample of $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.6 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment. Three $\Xi_c^0$ states are…
I suggest that the conventional assignment of quantum numbers to the observed charm and bottom baryons is not correct, as these assignments imply large violation of the heavy spin-flavor and light $SU(3)$ symmetries. I propose an…
In this talk I show recent results on how many excited baryon resonances appear as systems of one meson and one baryon, or two mesons and one baryon, with the mesons being either pseudoscalar or vectors. Connection with experiment is made…
The strong decays of the low-lying $\lambda$-mode $\Lambda_b(1D,2S)$ and $\Sigma_b(2S)$ states are studied in a chiral quark model. We find that: (i) the newly observed $\Lambda_b(6146/6152)$ resonances in the $\Lambda_b\pi^+\pi^-$ spectrum…
Using a coupled channel unitary approach, combining the heavy quark spin symmetry and the dynamics of the local hidden gauge, we investigate the meson-baryon interaction with hidden beauty and obtain several new states of $N^*$ around 11…
We study heavy-light baryon resonances with quantum numbers J^P=1/2^- in terms of the non-linear chiral SU(3) Lagrangian. Within the chi-BS(3) approach a parameter-free leading order prediction is obtained for the scattering of Goldstone…
Using the entire data sample of $980\,\textrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy collider, we report the measurement of the mass, width, and the relative branching ratios of the…
The single charmed excited $\Xi_c(2930)$ state was discovered many years ago by BABAR collaboration and recently confirmed by Belle experiment. However, both of these experiments, unfortunately, could not fix the quantum numbers of this…
In a previous work we presented a theoretical analysis of the $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi K^- p$ reaction from where a recent experiment by the LHCb collaboration at CERN claimed the existence of two hidden charm pentaquarks, $P_c(4380)^+$ and…
We perform a systematical investigation of the doubly charmed dibaryon system with quantum numbers $IJ=01$, and strangeness numbers $S=0$, $-2$ and $-4$ in the framework of the chiral quark model. Two resonance states with strangeness…
Results for the excited meson and baryon spectrum with two flavors of Chirally Improved sea quarks are presented. We simulate several ensembles with pion masses ranging from 250 to 600 MeV and extrapolate to the physical pion mass. Strange…
I review the recent proposal that there are new isotriplet heavy baryons with masses approximately 2380 MeV and 5760 MeV. This prediction follows from the application of heavy spin-flavor and light $SU(3)$ symmetries to the observed charmed…
BESIII has accumulated 4.5 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data in the 4.6 to 4.7 GeV energy range, corresponding to the world's largest sample of $\Lambda_c^+\bar{\Lambda}_c^-$ pairs. This paper summarizes recent BESIII results on…
