We study the photoproduction of $K^*(892)$ vector meson from both the charged and neutral reactions, $\gamma p \to K^{*+} \Lambda$ and $\gamma n \to K^{*0} \Lambda$. The production mechanisms that we consider include $t$-channel $K^*$, $K$,…

We investigate the $\Lambda(1405,1/2^-)\equiv\Lambda^*$ photoproduction off the proton target, i.e. $\gamma p\to K^+\Lambda^*$, considering explicitly its two-pole structure, the higher ($\Lambda^*_H:\,1430\,\mathrm{MeV}$) and lower…
A hybrid model is presented for hadron polarization that is based on perturbative QCD subprocesses and the recombination of polarized quarks to form polarized hadrons. The model, originally applied to polarized $\Lambda$'s that were…

We consider the reactions gamma p --> M B, with M B being either K+ Lambda, K+ Sigma0, or Pi n, within a diquark model which is based on perturbative QCD. The model parameters and the quark-diquark distribution amplitudes of the baryons are…

The transverse polarization of $\Lambda^0$ hyperons produced in the inclusive $ep$ reaction at the 27.6 GeV beam energy is assumed to appear mostly via scattering of the strange quark in a color field. Results of application of such an idea…
$K^+\Lambda(1405)$ photoproduction has been studied at the BGOOD experiment via the all neutral decay, $\Lambda(1405)\rightarrow\Sigma^0\pi^0$. The unique BGOOD experimental setup allows both the cross section and $\Lambda(1405)$ invariant…
