In this work we calculate the mass spectrum and decay constants of ground and excited states of heavy-light $P$-wave mesons such as $1^{++}$ and $1^{+-}$, with quark composition, $c\overline{u}, c\overline{s}, b\overline{u}, b\overline{s}$,…

This study employs QCD sum rules to predict the masses and residues of spin-$\frac {3}{2} $ doubly heavy baryons including two heavy quarks (c and/or b) and one light quark, specifically focusing on $ \Xi_{cc}^*$, $ \Xi_{bc}^*$, $…
The spectroscopy of light, strange baryons have been an important aspect with still unknown resonances and intrinsic baryonic properties. The present document is focused on the $\Delta$ baryons unlike earlier work, here all the four isospin…
