We report a high-statistics measurement of the differential cross section of the process gamma gamma --> K^0_S K^0_S in the range 1.05 GeV <= W <= 4.00 GeV, where W is the center-of-mass energy of the colliding photons, using 972 fb^{-1} of…
Among the light baryons, the $J^\pi = \frac{1}{2}^-$ $\Lambda(1405)$ hyperon is an important special case as it sits just below the $N\bar{K}$ threshold and decays almost exclusively to $\Sigma\pi$. Some long-standing hypotheses for…
We show that the recently measured asymmetry in helicity-angle spectra of the Lambda-hyperons produced in the reaction pp -> K^+Lambda p reaction and the energy dependence of the total pp -> K^+Lambda p cross section can be explained…
The scalar contributions to the radiative decays of light vector mesons into a pair of neutral pseudoscalars, $V\to P^0P^0\gamma$, are studied within the framework of the Linear Sigma Model. This model has the advantage of incorporating not…
We discuss properties of baryon resonances belonging to the Nucleon, Delta, Sigma, Lambda, Xi and Omega families in a collective string-like model for the nucleon, in which the radial excitations are interpreted as rotations and vibrations…

The vibrational properties of a high-quality realistic model of amorphous silicon are examined. The longitudinal and transverse dynamical structure factors are calculated, and fitted to a damped harmonic oscillator (DHO) function. The width…
We present an analysis of the Lambda(1405) resonance in p+p reactions at a kinetic beam energy of 3.5 GeV, measured by the High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer (HADES). The resonance is reconstructed in the two charged decay channels…
We develop a method to calculate helicity amplitudes of an arbitrary tree-level process in Feynman-Diagram (FD) gauge for an arbitrary gauge model with MadGraph5_aMC@NLO. We start from the 't Hooft-Feynman gauge Lagrangian in FeynRules and…
We study the radiative $\phi\to K^0\bar{K}^0\gamma$ decay within a phenomenological framework by considering the contributions of the $f_{0}(980)$ and $a_{0}(980)$ scalar resonances. We calculate the branching ratio $B(\phi\to…

The beam-helicity asymmetry has been measured simultaneously for the reactions (e p \to e p \gamma) and (e p \to e p \pi^0) in the $\Delta (1232)$ resonance region at $Q^2=$ 0.35 (GeV/c)$^2$. The experiment was performed at MAMI with a…
We investigate the rare decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ which receives both short and long distance contributions. We estimate the long distance contributions and find them very small. The form factors are obtained from $\Lambda_c \to…
We study the radiative decay $\rho^{0}\to\pi^{0}\pi^{0}\gamma$ within the framework of a phenomenological approach in which the contributions of $\sigma$-meson and $\omega$-meson intermediate states and of the pion-loops are considered. We…
We use a non-perturbative approach which combines coupled channel Lippmann-Schwinger equations with meson-meson potentials provided by the lowest order chiral Lagrangian. By means of one parameter, a cut off in the momentum of the loop…
