We give a general formulation of the quark-diagram scheme for the nonleptonic weak decays of baryons. We apply it to all the decays of the antitriplet and sextet charmed baryons and express their decay amplitudes in terms of the…
Motivated by the recent LHCb observation of $CP$ violation in charm, we study $CP$ violation in the charmed baryon decays. A simple method to search for the $CP$ violation relations in the flavor $SU(3)$ limit, which is associated with a…
We study the group structure of baryon anti-decuplet containing the $\Theta^+$. We derive the SU(3) mass relations among the pentaquark baryons in the anti-decuplet, when there is either no mixing or ideal mixing with the pentaquark octet,…
We study the $P$-wave bottom baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor antitriplet and systematically calculate their strong decay properties, including their $D$-wave decays into ground-state bottom baryons with light pseudoscalar mesons and $S$-wave…
In recent years there has been tremendous progress in the investigation of bound systems of quarks with multiplicities beyond the more usual two- and three-quark systems. Experimental and theoretical progress has been made in the four-,…
We investigate the weak decays of $\bar B_{s}^{0}$ and $\Lambda_{b}$ to charm hadrons based on the dynamical supersymmetry between the $\bar s$ quark and the $ud$ diquark. We derive a new sum rule relating the decay rates of the processes…
The weak and electromagnetic radiative baryon decays of octet $T_{8}$, decuplet $T_{10}$, single charmed anti-triplet $T_{c3}$ and sextet $T_{c6}$, single heavy bottomed anti-triplet $T_{b3}$ and sextet $T_{b6}$ are investigated by using…
Semileptonic decays of D-mesons into scalar hadronic states are investigated. Two extreme cases are considered: a) the meson decays directly into an uncorrelated scalar state of two two mesons and b) the decay proceeds via resonance…
We investigate the decay modes of pentaquark baryons for both the antidecuplet and the octet states, which were recently claimed by Close and Dudek to be potentially narrow due to a hidden selection rule. We discuss how ideal mixing between…
We explore the breaking effects of the $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry in the singly Cabibbo-suppressed anti-triplet charmed baryon decays of ${\bf B}_c\to {\bf B}_n M$, with ${\bf B}_c=(\Xi_c^0,\Xi_c^+,\Lambda_c^+)$ and ${\bf B}_n(M)$ the baryon…
The experimental signature of an S=+1 baryon of mass 1540 MeV and width 10-25 MeV has led to speculation that this is an exotic baryon consisting of 4 quarks and 1 antiquark lying at the top of a $\bar{10}$ SU(3) multiplet. The observed…
An analysis of the experimental search for supernarrow dibaryons (SNDs) have been performed. The sum rules for SND masses have been constructed. The calculated values of the SND masses are in good agreement with the existing experimental…
QCD sum rules for decay constants of heavy mesons with $u$ or $d$ quark yield for $B$ mesons much less isospin breaking than lattice QCD but good agreement for $D$ mesons.
Sum rules are derived relating Dirac mean square radii and anomalous magnetic moments of various couples of the ground state $1/2^+$ octet baryons with the convergent integral of the difference of hadron photoproduction total cross-sections…
We investigate the symmetry property and the stability of dibaryons containing two strange quarks and one heavy flavor with $I=\frac{1}{2}$. We construct the wave function of the dibaryon in two ways. First, we directly construct the color…
We underline a problem existing in the heavy quark limit of QCD concerning the rates of semileptonic B decays into P-wave $D_J(j)$ mesons, where $j = {1 \over 2}$ (wide states) or $j = {3 \over 2}$ (narrow states). The leading order sum…
The semileptonic decays and two-body nonleptonic decays of light baryon octet ($T_8$) and decuplet ($T_{10}$) consisting of light $u,d,s$ quarks are studied with the SU(3) flavor symmetry in this work. We obtain the amplitude relations…
We investigate the hyperon semileptonic decay constants, $f_2/f_1$, and $g_1/f_1$, within a general framework of a chiral soliton model. All relevant parameters for the SU(3) baryon wave functions were unambiguously determined by using the…
We propose that the search of the $B\to D^{*}_{sJ}M$ decays, $M=D$, $\pi$ and $K$, can discriminate the different theoretical postulations for the nature of the recently observed $D^{*}_{sJ}$ mesons. The ratio of the branching ratios…
The octet and decuplet SU(3)f baryons are studied with the Polyakov, Nambu and Jona-Lasinio model, in a diquark-quark approach, via the resolution of the Bethe-Salpeter equation. This work includes estimations of their masses according to…
