We extend a previous study of photoproduction of exotic baryon resonances to the reaction $\gamma + d \to J/\psi + n + p$, which permits simultaneous investigation of the reactions $\gamma + p \to P_c^+ \to J/\psi~p$ \hbox{($n$ spectator)}…
It is shown that the list of unusual mesons planned for a careful study in photoproduction can be extended by the exotic states $X^\pm(1600)$ with $I^G(J ^{PC})=2^+(2^{++})$ which should be looked for in the $\rho^\pm\rho^0$ decay channels…
The amplitude for $\gamma p \to V p$, where $V$ is a $J/\psi$ or $\Upsilon$ ground state or excited vector meson, is calculated in a pQCD $k_{T}$-factorization approach. We use this amplitude to predict the cross section for exclusive…

We investigate near-threshold $J/\psi$ photoproduction off the nucleon, focusing on hadronic rescattering effects induced by open-charm meson-baryon intermediate states. Beyond the conventional Pomeron-exchange mechanism, the $\bar…
