We review our studies on the rho and sigma resonances properties derived from the Inverse Amplitude Method. In particular, we study the leading $1/N_c$ behavior of the resonances masses and widths and their evolution with changing $m_\pi$.…
We have reviewed the renormalization procedure used in the unitarized coupled-channel model of Phys. Rev. D85 114032 (2012), and its impact in the $C=1$, $S=-2$, and $I=0$ sector, where five $\Omega_c^{(*)}$ states have been recently…
The interaction between $\Lambda_c$ and a nucleon ($N$) is investigated by employing the HAL QCD method in the (2+1)-flavor lattice QCD on a $(2.9~\mathrm{fm})^3$ volume at $m_\pi \simeq 410,~570,~700$ MeV. We study the central potential in…
In this work, we treat $\Lambda_c(2910)^+$ and $\Lambda_c(2940)^+$ as the conventional $udc$ cores dressed with the $D^*N$ channel. We provide a possible interpretation to both $\Lambda_c(2910)^+$ and $\Lambda_c(2940)^+$ within the same…
So far, the masses of excited states of mixed orbital symmetry and in particular those of nonstrange $[{\bf 70},1^-]$ baryons derived in the $1/N_c$ expansion were based on the separation of a system of $N_c$ quarks into a symmetric core…
The mass spectra of nucleon resonances with spin 1/2, 3/2, and 5/2 are systematically studied in the constituent quark model with meson-quark coupling, which is inspired by the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry of QCD. The meson-quark…
We present a theoretical analysis of the process $\Lambda_c^+ \to p\bar{K}^0 \pi^0$ within the chiral unitary approach, with particular emphasis on the dynamically generated $N(1535)$ resonance. In addition to $N(1535)$, our model…
We study singly Cabibbo-suppressed two-body hadronic decays of the charmed baryon $\Lambda_c^+$, namely, $\Lambda_c^+\to \Lambda K^+, p\pi^0, p\eta, n\pi^+,\Sigma^0K^+,\Sigma^+ K^0$. We use the measured rate of $\Lambda_c^+\to p\phi$ to fix…
Meson-meson amplitudes are important on their own and also play key roles in analyses of heavy-meson and tau decays. In this work we propose a new phenomenological model suited to all $SU(3)$ mesonic two-body final state interactions up to…
Excited baryons may be analyzed in the 1/N_c expansion as true resonances in scattering amplitudes. The key idea making this program possible is a generalization of methods originally applied to chiral soliton models in the 1980's. One…
Inspired by the observations of three $P_c$ states, we systematically investigate interactions between an $S$-wave charmed baryon $\mathcal{B}_{c}^{(*)}=\Lambda_c/\Sigma_c/\Sigma_c^{*}$ and an anticharmed meson $\bar T=\bar D_1/\bar D_2^*$…
We discuss the formation of s- and d-wave baryon resonances as predicted by the chiral SU(3) symmetry of QCD. Based on the leading order term of the chiral Lagrangian a rich spectrum of molecules is generated, owing to final-state…
We present the results of a five-dimensional resonant amplitude analysis of the $\Lambda_c^+{\to}pK^{-}\pi^{+}$ system based on $946\pm 38$ reconstructed decays. These data were produced in 500 GeV/$c$ $\pi^-$-N interactions by Fermilab…
The infinite chain of transitions of one pair of mesons (channel I) into another pair of mesons (channel II) can produce bound states and resonances in both channels even if no interactions inside channels exist. These resonances which can…
In this two part series a chiral confining model of baryons is used to describe low--lying negative parity resonances $N^*$, $\Delta^*$, $\Lambda^*$ and $\Sigma^*$ in the mean field approximation. A physical baryon in this model consists of…
We present measurements of the masses and decay widths of the baryonic states $\Sigma_{c}(2455)^{0/++}$ and $\Sigma_{c}(2520)^{0/++}$ using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle…
The excitation energies of the $\Lambda_{c}$ and $\Lambda_{b}$ baryons are investigated in a finite-size diquark potential model, in which the heavy baryons are treated as bound states of a charm quark and a scalar-isoscalar diquark. The…
In the large Nc limit, the mass spectrum of the L=1 orbitally excited baryons N* has a very simple structure, with states degenerate in pairs of spins J=(1/2,3/2), (3/2,5/2), corresponding to irreducible representations (towers) of the…
After Y(4630) is discovered, theorists have given various explanations. We find that if Y(4630) is interpreted as the D-wave resonant state of $\Lambda_c \bar {\Lambda}_c$ system, the particle mass, decay width and all quantum numbers are…
We show that excited baryons in large N_c QCD form multiplets, within which masses are first split at O(1/N_c). The dominant couplings of resonances to various mesons are highly constrained: The N(1535) decays at leading 1/N_c order…
