We propose that the scalar $\kappa(800)$ meson may play an important role in $K^*$ photoproduction. In the reactions of $\gamma p \to K^{*+} \Lambda$ and $\gamma p \to K^{*0} \Sigma^+$, we consider the production mechanisms including…
The exclusive reactions $\gamma p \to K^{*0} \Sigma^+(1189)$ and $\gamma p \to K^{0} \pi^{0}\Sigma^+(1189)$, leading to the p 4$\pi^{0}$ final state, have been measured with a tagged photon beam for incident energies from threshold up to…
We study the angular distribution of photons produced in the inclusive decay of a polarized $\Lambda_b$, $\Lambda_b\to X_s\,\gamma$, using the technique of Heavy Quark Effective Theory. Finite non-perturbative corrections are obtained…
The reactions of $K \Sigma(1385)$ photoproduction, i.e., $\gamma p \to K^+ \Sigma^0(1385)$ and $\gamma n \to K^+ \Sigma^-(1385)$, are investigated in the resonance energy region for studying the role of the nucleon and $\Delta$ resonances…
Photoproduction can be studied at hadron colliders by using the virtual photons associated with the hadron beams. The LHC will reach photonucleon energies 10 times higher than that available elsewhere. These reactions are already being…

Differential cross sections for $\gamma p \to K^+\Lambda(1405)$ and $\gamma p \to K^+\Sigma^0(1385)$ reactions have been measured in the photon energy range from 1.5 to 2.4 GeV and the angular range of $0.8<\cos(\Theta)<1.0$ for the $K^+$…
We develop a formalism for studying vector meson ($V$) photo-production at the proton ($p$) with polarized photons, $\vec\gamma p \to V p $, through an analysis of the decay distribution in the channel $V\to\pi^0\gamma$. We show that this…
The associated photoproduction of $K\Lambda$ from the proton in the low energy region is studied using an isobar model in which the non-resonant contributions are obtained from the non-linear sigma model with chiral SU(3) symmetry which…
In our previous work [Phys. Rev. D $\bf{101}$, 074025 (2020)], the photoproduction $\gamma p \to K^+ \Sigma^0(1385)$ has been investigated within an effective Lagrangian approach. There, the reaction amplitudes were constructed by…
The collinear factorization framework allows to describe the exclusive photoproduction of a $\gamma\,\rho$ pair in the generalized Bjorken regime in terms of a perturbatively calculable coefficient function and universal generalized parton…
The production of single photons in $Pb+Pb$ collisions at the CERN SPS as measured by the WA98 experiment is analysed. A quark gluon plasma is assumed to be formed initially, which expands, cools, hadronizes, and undergoes freeze-out. A…
We investigate the heavy quark photoproduction based on the k_T factorization approach, focusing on the results from the saturation model. The deviations in the results using the unintegrated gluon distribution considering the saturation…

We discuss the production of real or virtual photons in a quark-gluon plasma.
We study the photoproduction of the $\Lambda(1405)$ and $\Sigma(1400)$ hyperon resonances, the latter of which is not a well established state. We evaluate the $s$-, $t$- and $u$-channel diagrams in the Born approximation by employing the…
