In this study, we explore the ground state phase diagram of the spin-1/2 XX chain model, which features $XZY-YZX$ type three-spin interactions (TSI). This model, while seemingly simple, reveals a rich tapestry of quantum behaviors. Our…
Coincidences between charged particles emitted in the $\beta$-decay of $^{11}$Li were observed using highly segmented detectors. The breakup channels involving three particles were studied in full kinematics allowing for the reconstruction…
Inspired by the recent observation of $\chi_{c0}(3930)$, $X(4685)$ and $X(4630)$ by the LHCb Collaboration and some exotic resonances such as $X(4350)$, $X(4500)$, etc. by several experiment collaborations, the $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ tetraquark…
We point out that meson spectrum indicates the existence of a degenerate chiral nonet in the energy region around 1.4 GeV with a slightly inverted spectrum with respect to a qq nonet. Based on this observation, the approximately linear…
In this work we study several $\Xi_c$ and $\Xi_b$ states dynamically generated from the meson-baryon interaction in coupled channels, using an extension of the local hidden gauge approach in the Bethe-Salpeter equation. These molecular…
Recently, many efforts are being put in studying three-hadron systems made of mesons and baryons and interesting results are being found. In this talk, I summarize the main features of the formalism used to study such three hadron systems…
The $D_s(2320)$ state recently observed by BaBar in the $D_s^+\pi^0$ channel may be the first of a host of $cq\bar q\bar q$ four-quark states. We give a phenomenological account of the masses and decay modes. The isosinglet $D_s(2320)$…
The recently postulated existence of a baryon antidecuplet [1] can be reproduced in strong coupling theory in which a bare baryon spin 1/2 octet interacts with an octet of pseudoscalar mesons. When a suitable mixture of F- and D-type Yukawa…
Partial wave analysis is performed, with effective potentials as dynamical inputs, to scrutinize the recent LHCb data on the di-$J/\psi$ invariant mass spectrum. Coupled-channel effects are incorporated in the production amplitude via final…
We have studied the $N D^* \bar{K}^*$ system in the framework of the Fixed Center Approximation to the Faddeev equations, taking the exotic $D^* \bar{K}^* $ system as the cluster and allowing the N to interact with the components of the…
The recent observation of a hadronic resonance $d^*$ in the proton-neutron system with isospin $I = 0$ and spin-parity $J^P = 3^+$ raises the possibility of producing other novel six-quark dibaryon configurations allowed by QCD. A dramatic…
Recent data from Belle show unusually large partial widths Upsilon(5S) --> Upsilon(1S) pi^+pi^- and \Upsilon(5S) --> \Upsilon(2S) pi^+ pi^-. The Z(4430) narrow resonance also reported by Belle in psi' pi^+ spectrum has the properties…
Motivated by the experimental findings of some new exotic states decaying into channels like $J/\psi \phi$, we investigate the formation of resonances/bound states in the $D^*_s\bar D^*_s$ system using QCD sum rules. To do this we start…
We address ultracold $N$-atom degenerate cascade systems and show that stationary subradiant states, already observed in the semiclassical regime, also exist in a fully quantum regime and for a small number of atoms. We explicitly evaluate…
Recently LHCb reported the discovery of five extremely narrow excited $\Omega_c$ baryons decaying into $\Xi_c^+ K^-$. We interpret these baryons as bound states of a $c$-quark and a $P$-wave $ss$-diquark. For such a system there are exactly…
Medium and high-spin states in $^{133}$Ce were investigated using the $^{116}$Cd($^{22}$Ne, $5n$) reaction and the Gammasphere array. The level scheme was extended up to an excitation energy of $\sim22.8$ MeV and spin 93/2 . Eleven bands of…
In this work, we study the strong decays of the newly observed $\Xi(1620)^0$ assuming that it is a meson-baryon molecular state of $\Lambda\bar{K}$ and $\Sigma\bar{K}$. We consider four possible spin-parity assignments $J^P=1/2^{\pm}$ and…
We construct a formalism which describes the resonances decaying into four pseudoscalar meson final states. This method is fully covariant and can be directly applied for the partial-wave analysis of high statistical data. Two topologies of…
We study $IJ^P=0{3/2}^\pm$ and $1{3/2}^\pm$ pentaquark states with $S=+1$ in the QCD sum rule approach. The QCD sum rule for positive parity states and that for negative parity are independently derived. The sum rule suggests that there…
