In a recent experiment E906 at the BNL-AGS, a search for light S=-2 hypernuclei, strong evidence was found for the nuclide Hydrogen-4 double Lambda. One of the most striking components of this data was the appearance of a narrow…
I briefly review the history of exotic meson (4-quark) and baryon (5-quark) states, which is rooted in the formalism of Regge pole and duality. There are robust model-independent predictions for the exchange of 4-quark (Baryonium) Regge…
A simple argument for the restoration of parity symmetry high in the hadron spectrum is presented. The restoration scale is estimated to be 2.5 GeV. This in turn implies that typical quark model phenomenology such as scalar confinement or…
The theoretical procedure of supersymmetric quantum mechanics is adopted to generate the resonance state wave functions of the unbound nucleus $^{15}$Be. In this framework, we used a density dependent M3Y microscopic potential and arrived…
We look for the existence of stable (by strong interactions) tetraquarks, mesons containing two heavy antiquarks and two light quarks, specifically a $|{\bar b}{\bar b}qq\rangle$ state. This state is viewed as two $|{\bar b}q\rangle $…
We study the quark-mass dependence of J^P = \frac12^- s-wave and J^P = \frac32^- d-wave baryon resonances. Parameter-free results are obtained in terms of the leading order chiral Lagrangian. In the 'heavy' SU(3) limit with m_\pi =m_K…
Bound states of double-heavy tetraquarks are studied in a constituent quark model. Two bound states are found for isospin and spin-parity I(J^P ) = 0(1^+) in the bb\bar{u}\bar{d} channel. One is deeply bound and compact made of colored…
The Lambda(1405) baryon resonance plays an outstanding role in various aspects in hadron and nuclear physics. It has been considered that the Lambda(1405) resonance is generated by the attractive interaction of the antikaon and the nucleon,…
A potential quark model is used to search for a $P_{c\bar{c}s}^0=(c\bar{c}uds)^0$, $J^P=1/2^-$ pentaquark state that has recently been observed experimentally by the LHCb collaboration at 4338.2 MeV, with a width of 7.0 MeV and high…
We study the correspondence between phase-space localization of quantum (quasi-)energy eigenstates and classical correlation decay, given by Ruelle-Pollicott resonances of the Frobenius-Perron operator. It will be shown that scarred…
The excited hyperon $\Lambda(1405)$ is the important building block for kaonic nuclei which are nuclear many-body system with anti-kaons. We have been investigating the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance with the coupled-channel Complex Scaling…
Resonance parameters (pole masses and residues) associated with the excited states of hyperons, Lambda^* and Sigma^*, are extracted within a dynamical coupled-channels model developed recently by us [Phys. Rev. C 90, 065204 (2014)] through…
We use Regge phenomenology to study the structure of the poles of the $N^*$ and $\Delta^*$ spectrum. We employ the available pole extractions from partial wave analysis of meson scattering and photoproduction data. We assess the importance…
An interesting controversy has emerged challenging the widely accepted nature of the $X(3915)$ and the $X(3930)$ resonances, which had initially been assigned to the $\chi_{c0}(2P)$ and $\chi_{c2}(2P)$ $c\bar c$ states, respectively. To…
A nearest-neighbor analysis of light flavor baryon mass spectra reveals striking degeneracy patterns- narrow mass bands populated by series of parity twins of steadily increasing spins. Each series terminates by an unpaired resonance of the…
We extend the nonrelativistic QCD framework to explore the nature of the newly discovered di-$J/\psi$ resonances. Assuming them as either molecule-like states or tetraquarks, we calculated their hadroproduction cross sections at the LHC. We…
The Lambda(1405) resonance is studied by a chiral unitary approach, in which the resonance is dynamically generated in coupled-channel meson-baryon scattering. Investigating the analytic structure of the scattering amplitudes obtained by…
Recent studies within the framework of chiral unitary theory produce the $\Lambda (1520)$ resonance, among several others, as a dynamically generated resonance from the interaction of the baryon decuplet and the meson octet. The $\Lambda…
We study the scalar kaonic states $K_{0}^{\ast}(800)$ and $K_{0}^{\ast}(1430)$ by using a relativistic QFT Lagrangian in which only a single kaonic field corresponding to the well-established scalar state $K_{0}^{\ast}(1430)$ is considered…
We have investigated the $qss\bar{q}q$ ($q = u$ or $d$) system to find possible pentaquark explanations for the $\Xi$ resonances. The bound state calculation is carried out within the framework of the quark delocalization color screening…
