The reactions $\Sigma_b^* \to \Lambda_b \pi$, $\Sigma_b \to \Lambda_b \pi$, and $\Xi_b^* \to \Xi_b \pi$ are studied in the $^3P_0$ non-relativistic quark model with all the model parameters fixed in the sector of light quarks. The…
We first study the charmless two-body $\Lambda_b$ decays with the scalar mesons as the final states and predict that ${\cal B}(\Lambda_b\to \Lambda f_0(980,1500))=(2.9\pm 0.7,12.4\pm 3.8)\times 10^{-6}$ and ${\cal B}(\Lambda_b\to p…
Recently we presented a successful strategy to extract the position of the two $\Lambda(1405)$ poles from experimental photoproduction data on the $\gamma p \to K^+ \pi^0 \Sigma^0 $ reaction at Jefferson Lab. Following a similar strategy,…
We consider the reactions gamma p --> M B, with M B being either K+ Lambda, K+ Sigma0, or Pi n, within a diquark model which is based on perturbative QCD. The model parameters and the quark-diquark distribution amplitudes of the baryons are…
The reaction gamma + p -> K+ + Sigma + pi was used to determine the invariant mass distributions or "line shapes" of the Sigma+ pi-, Sigma- pi+ and Sigma0 pi0 final states, from threshold at 1328 MeV/c^2 through the mass range of the…
We investigate the interaction of an antikaon ($K^-$) with the $^{6}$Li nucleus, described as an $\alpha + d$ cluster system. The study aims to explore the formation of the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance through the $K^-d$ subsystem in the…
A $\Sigma^*$ resonance with spin-parity $J^P = 1/2^-$ and mass in the vicinity of the $\bar{K}N$ threshold has been predicted in the unitary chiral approach and inferred from the analysis of CLAS data on the $\gamma p \to K^+ \pi^0…
Within an extended chiral constituent quark model, three- and five-quark structure of the $S_{01}$ resonance $\Lambda(1405)$ is investigated with respect to the coupling constants $g^2_{\Lambda^* \pi \Sigma}$ and $g^2_{\Lambda^* \bar{K}…
Exploiting $B$-meson decays for Standard Model tests and beyond requires a precise understanding of the strong final-state interactions that can be provided model-independently by means of dispersion theory. This formalism allows one to…
The measurements of the $J/\psi \rightarrow \gamma p \overline{p}$ decays by the BES Collaboration indicate an enhancement at the $p \overline{p}$ threshold which, however, is not present in the J/$\psi$ decays into $\omega p \overline{p}$…
Role of the $\Lambda(1600)$ is studied in the $K^- p \to \Lambda \pi^0 \pi^0$ reaction by using the effective Lagrangian approach near the threshold. We perform a calculation for the total and differential cross sections by considering the…
We perform a theoretical analysis of the $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi K^- p$ reaction from where a recent LHCb experiment extracts a $\Lambda(1405)$ contribution in the $K^- p$ spectrum close to threshold and two baryon states of hidden charm in…
The strong and radiative decays of the low-lying $S$- and $P$-wave $\Lambda_{c(b)}$, $\Sigma_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}'$ and $\Omega_{c(b)}$ baryons are systematically studied in a constituent quark model. We find that the…
A search for previously unobserved decays of beauty baryons to the final states $K^0_{\rm\scriptscriptstyle S} p \pi^{-}$ and $K^0_{\rm\scriptscriptstyle S}p K^{-}$ is reported. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an…

By looking at the pseudoscalar-vector meson spectra in the $\bar{B}\to J/\psi \rho\bar{K}$ and $\bar{B}\to J/\psi \bar{K}^*\pi$ weak decays, we theoretically investigate the double-pole structure of the $K_1(1270)$ resonance by using the…

We investigate the p(gamma,K+)Lambda and p(gamma,K+)Sigma^0 reactions within a coupled-channels effective-Lagrangian method which is based on the K-matrix approach. The two-body final channels included are pi-N, eta-N, phi-N, rho-N,…
