In this review, we have studied the quasielastic production cross sections and polarization components of $\Lambda$, $\Sigma^0$ and $\Sigma^-$ hyperons induced by the weak charged currents in the antineutrino reactions on the nucleon and…
This talk is devoted to review the field of strangeness production in (ultra-)relativistic heavy ion collisions within our present theoretical understanding. Historically there have been (at least) three major ideas for the interest in the…
In this paper, we present our study on the $\eta$ photoproduction based on the chiral quark model. We find that quark model provides a very good description of the $\eta$ production with much less parameters, and the threshold region is not…
We present a microscopic model for neutrino induced one-pion production off the nucleon and its implementation for the purpose of calculating coherent pion production in nuclei. We further criticize the use of the Rein--Sehgal model for…

The spectra of strange hadrons are measured in proton-proton collisions, recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC, at centre-of-mass energies of 0.9 and 7 TeV. The K^0_s, Lambda, and Xi^- particles and their antiparticles are…

We investigate the associated strangeness Lambda K+ and Sigma0 K+ productions in proton-proton collisions within an effective Lagrangian model. The initial interaction between the two nucleons is modeled by the exchange of pi, rho, omega,…
We investigate $\eta$ photoproduction off the neutron target, i.e., $\gamma n \to \eta n$, employing an effective Lagrangian method combining with a Regge approach. As a background, we consider nucleon exchange in the $s$-channel diagram…

The recently discovered enhancement of eta photoproduction on the quasi-free neutron at energies around s^1/2 ~ 1.67 GeV is addressed within an SU(3) coupled channels model. The K Sigma threshold plays a significant role and the quasi-free…

A relativistic model for the quasifree photoproduction of eta meson from complex nuclei is developed. The interactions between fields are introduced through effective Lagrangians. Contributions from several nucleon resonances as well as…
Antiproton annihilations on nuclei provide a very interesting way to study the behaviour of strange particles in the nuclear medium. In low energy $\bar p$ annihilations, the hyperons are produced mostly by strangeness exchange mechanisms.…
