The electronic structure and magnetic properties of CrSb$_2$ have been investigated by ab-initio calculations with an emphasis on the role of the magnetic structure for the ground state. The influence of correlation effects has been…
We discuss decays and productions for the possible molecular states formed by bottom mesons B (B*) and anti-B (anti-B*). The twin resonances found by Belle, Zb(10610) and Zb(10650), are such candidates. The spin wave functions of the…
Using a proton-proton collision data sample collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 8.5 fb$^{-1}$, the observation of a new excited $\Xi_b^0$ resonance decaying to the $\Xi_b^-\pi^+$ final state is…
We investigate the possible existence of the bound state in the system of three bosons interacting with each other via zero-radius potentials in two dimensions (it can be atoms confined in two dimensions or tri-exciton states in…
Switch-like responses arising from bistability have been linked to cell signaling processes and memory. Revealing the shape and properties of the set of parameters that lead to bistability is necessary to understand the underlying…
In 2019, two new structures $\Lambda_b(6146)$ and $\Lambda_b(6152)$ were observed by the LHCb Collaboration at the invariant mass spectrum of $\Lambda_b^0\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$, which aroused a hot discussion about their inner structures. The…
A novel theoretical approach to the problem of the compositeness ($X$) of a resonance or bound state is developed on the basis of the expectation values of the number operators of the free particles in the continuum. This formalism is…
The phenomenological boundary conditions for the envelope wave function, which is applicable for contacts of semiconductors with the rather different crystal symmetry are proposed. It is shown that the boundary conditions are determined by…
Excitons play a key role in the linear optical response of 2D materials. However, their significance in the highly nonlinear optical response to intense mid-infrared light has often been overlooked. Using hBN as a prototypical example, we…
We show that the literature on pion exchange between charm and bottom mesons is inconsistent. We derive the formalism explicitly, expose differences between papers in the literature and clarify the implications. We show that the X(3872) can…
Hybrid b-bar-gb molecules in which the heavy b-bar-b pair is bound together by the excited gluon field g are studied using the Born-Oppenheimer expansion and numerical simulations. The consistency of results from the two approaches reveals…
The $B_s^0\pi^\pm$ invariant mass distribution is investigated in order to search for possible exotic meson states. The analysis is based on a data sample recorded with the LHCb detector corresponding to $3$ fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data…
The energy dependence of the production cross section of a light Higgs boson is studied at threshold and compared to the expectations of several spin assumptions. Cross section measurements at three centre-of-mass energies with an…
The presence of cluster-like narrow resonances in the vicinity of reaction/decay thresholds is a ubiquitous phenomenon with profound consequences. We argue that the continuum coupling, present in the open quantum system description of the…
In this study, we discuss some general critical properties of bound states with one-boson-exchange potential. For simplicity, we first take a system with two identical scalar particles as an example. The interaction between these two scalar…
The B_C meson is the bound state of b-cbar whose recent detection is the first step toward completion of the spectroscopy of heavy quark mesonic states. The b-c states have properties that conveniently fill the gap between the J/Psi and…

Universal properties of mass-imbalanced three-body systems in 2D are studied using zero-range interactions in momentum space. The dependence of the three-particle binding energy on the parameters (masses and two-body energies) is highly…
