One of the key challenges for nuclear physics today is to understand from first principles the effective interaction between hadrons with different quark content. First successes have been achieved using techniques that solve the dynamics…
Radiative corrections to the annihilation of proton--antiproton into electron--positron are revisited, including virtual and real (soft and hard) photon emission. This issue is relevant for the time-like form factors measurements planned at…
The strange-anticharmed Pentaquark is a uud(cbar)s or udd(cbar)s five-quark baryon that is expected to be either a narrow resonance, or possibly even stable against strong decay. We describe this hyperon here; its structure, binding energy…
In this work, we systematically study the interaction of $D^*$ and nucleon, which is stimulated by the observation of $\Lambda_c(2940)^+$ close to the threshold of $D^*p$. Our numerical result obtained by the dynamical investigation…

After sketching heavy quark expansions as applied to heavy flavour decays I emphasize the relevance of nonperturbative dynamics at the charm scale for exclusive $b\to c$ modes. I address the issue of quark-hadron duality for charm and…
The flavor-changing neutral current (FCNC) decays of charmed hadrons with missing energy $(\not\!\!E)$ can serve as potentially promising hunting grounds for hints of new physics, as the standard-model backgrounds are very suppressed. A few…
