We analyse the properties of the kaonic nuclear cluster (KNC) anti-KNN with the structure Nx(anti-KN)_(I = 0), having the quantum numbers I(J^P) = 1/2(0^-), and treated as a quasi-bound hadronic molecule state. We describe the properties of…
The s-wave meson-baryon interaction in the $S = -1$, $S= 0$ and $S= -2$ sectors is studied by means of coupled channels, using the lowest-order chiral Lagrangian and the N/D method or equivalently the Bethe-Salpeter equation to implement…
In order to describe Lambda(1405) as a resonance in the baryon-meson scattering, we have investigated q^3-q qbar scattering system with the flavor-singlet q^3 (0s)^2(0p) state (the Lambda^1 pole). The scattering is treated by the quark…

We predict a new three-body hadronic molecule composed of antikaon $\bar{K}$, anticharm meson $\bar{D}$, and nucleon $N$ with spin/parity $J^{P} = 1/2^{+}$ and isospin $I = 1/2$. This state behaves like an explicit pentaquark state because…
