Pion exchange in S-wave between hadrons that are themselves in a relative S-wave can shift energies by hundreds of MeV. In the case of charmed mesons $D,D^*,D_0,D_1$ a spectroscopy of quasi-molecular states may arise consistent with…
We investigate the decays of the charmed baryons aiming at the systematic understanding of hadron internal structures based on the quark model by paying attention to heavy quark symmetry. We evaluate the decay widths from the one pion…
The STAR experiment has measured $p\Lambda$, $\bar{p}\bar{\Lambda}$, $\bar{p}\Lambda$, and $p\bar{\Lambda}$ femtoscopic correlation functions in central Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV. The system size extracted for $p\Lambda$…
The baryon decay modes of B,bar{B}-> N_{1}bar{N}_{2}(f), bar{N}_{1}N_{2}(bar{f}) provide a frame work to test CP-invariance in baryon sector. It is shown that in the rest frame of B, N_{1} and bar{N}_{2} come out with longitudnal…
The recent discovery of double charm baryon states by the LHCb Collaborarion and their high precision mass determination calls for a comprehensive analysis of the nonleptonic decays of double and single heavy baryons. Nonleptonic baryon…
We develop an effective theory for heavy baryons and their excited states. The approach is based on the contracted O(8) symmetry recently shown to emerge from QCD for these states in the combined large N_c and heavy quark limits. The…
We calculate the phase shifts in the pion-nucleon scattering using the heavy baryon formalism. We consider phase shifts for the pion energy range of 140 to $200 $ MeV. We employ two different methods for calculating the phase shifts - the…
We analyze the large-$N_c$ structure of the baryon-baryon potential derived in the framework of SU(3) chiral perturbation theory up to next-to-leading order including contact interactions as well as one-meson and two-meson exchange…
We calculate the semi-leptonic decays of $\Lambda_c$ and $\Lambda_b$ baryons which involve transitions of a heavy quark to a light quark. In a previous work we used data on the Cabibbo favoured non-leptonic decays of charmed baryons…
In the present work, we analyze the $P$-wave singly-heavy baryon spectrum belonging to $\mathbf{6}_F$ by combining the observations of the heavy baryon states, and restudy the strong decays of the $1P$ wave $\Sigma_b$ states within the…
Charmed nuclei are investigated utilizing $\Lambda_c N$ and $\Sigma_c N$ interactions that have been extrapolated from lattice QCD simulations at unphysical masses of $m_\pi = 410$--$570$ MeV to the physical point using chiral effective…
The two-particle hadronic decays of B_c meson into S-wave and P-wave charmonium states X_cc are considered in the framework of hard gluon exchange model. It is shown that decay width of B_c meson into S-wave charmonium states doubly exceeds…
Baryon-baryon potentials are obtained from 3-flavor QCD simulations with the lattice volume L ~ 4 fm, the lattice spacing a ~ 0.12 fm, and the pseudo-scalar-meson mass M_ps =469 - 1171 MeV. The NN scattering phase shift and the mass of…

The complexity of threshold phenomena is exemplified on a prominent and long-known case - the structure in the $\Lambda p$ cross section (invariant mass spectrum) at the opening of the $\Sigma N$ channel. The mass splitting between the…
The framework under which decays $\Lambda_{b}(\frac{1}{2}^{+})\rightarrow B(\frac{1}{2}^{+})+M$ are analyzed is not applicable for the decays $\Lambda_{b}(\frac{1}{2}^{+})\rightarrow B^{\ast}(\frac{3}{2} ^{+})+M$. These decays occur through…

The strangeness-changing ($\Delta S = 1$) weak baryon-baryon interaction is studied through the nonmesonic weak decay of double-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei. Besides the usual nucleon-induced decay $\Lambda N \to N N$ we discuss novel…
