The spectrum of the $c qq$ baryons contains a few states whose nature is not clearly a three-quark composite and which might have a sizable baryon-meson component. Examples include the $\Sigma_c(2800)$ or the $\Lambda_c(2940)$. Here we…

Considering Ginsparg-Wilson type fermions dynamically in lattice QCD simulations is a challenging task. The hope is to be able to approach smaller pion masses and to eventually reach physical situations. The price to pay is substantially…
We study two- and three-baryon systems with two units of charm looking for possible bound states or resonances. All two-baryon interactions are consistently derived from a constituent quark model tuned in the light-flavor hadron…
