We study the $\Lambda^+_c \to \pi^0 \phi p$ decay by considering a triangle singularity mechanism. In this mechanism, the $\Lambda^+_c$ decays into the $K^* \Sigma^*(1385)$, the $\Sigma^*(1385)$ decays into the $\pi^0 \Sigma$ (or…

Recently, the Belle and LHCb Collaborations have measured the $\Lambda^+_c \to p K^- \pi^+$ decay and reported the $p K^-$ invariant mass distribution, which shows a clear cusp structure around the $\eta \Lambda$ threshold. In this work, we…

In this work, the triangle singularity mechanism is investigated in the $\psi(2S) \to p \bar{p} \eta / p \bar{p} \pi^0$ process. The triangle loop composed by $J/\psi$, $\eta$ and $p$ has a singularity in the physical kinematic range for…

The LHCb data on $B^+\to J/\psi\phi K^+$ show four peaks and three dips in the $J/\psi\phi$ invariant mass distribution, and the peaks are interpreted as $X(4140)$, $X(4274)$, $X(4500)$ and $X(4685)/X(4700)$ resonance contributions.…

We investigate the production of the hidden-charm pentaquark $P_{cs}^0(4459)$ with strangeness in the $K^- p \to J/\psi \Lambda$ reaction, employing two different theoretical frameworks, i.e., the effective Lagrangian method and the Regge…

An amplitude analysis of flavour-untagged $B_s^0 \to J/\psi p \bar{p}$ decays is performed using a sample of $797\pm31$ decays reconstructed with the LHCb detector. The data, collected in proton-proton collisions between 2011 and 2018,…

The hidden charm pentaquark state $P_c(4450)$ observed recently by the LHCb collaboration may be of molecular nature, as advocated by some unitary approaches that also predict pentaquark partners in the strangeness $S=-1$ sector. In this…

Recently LHCb experiments confirmed the findings of the two $P_c$ states in the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi p \pi^-$ decays. In the present work, we investigate both the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi K^- p$ and the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi p \pi^-$…

The recently observed strange pentaquark candidate, $P_{\psi s}^{\Lambda}(4338){}^0$, is investigated to provide information about its nature and substructure. To this end, its mass and width through the decay channels $P_{\psi…

Accounting for the LHCb observation that the reported hidden-charm strange pentaquark $P_{cs}(4459)^0$ can split into two substructures, $P_{cs}(4455)^0$ and $P_{cs}(4468)^0$, with a mass difference of 13 MeV as well as the newly observed…

We perform a theoretical analysis of the $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi K^- p$ reaction from where a recent LHCb experiment extracts a $\Lambda(1405)$ contribution in the $K^- p$ spectrum close to threshold and two baryon states of hidden charm in…

Inspired by the $P_{cs}(4459)$ reported by the LHCb collaboration recently, we investigate the $P_{cs}(4459)$ production from $\Xi_b$ decay in a molecular scenario using an effective Lagrangian approach. With different $J^P$ assignments to…

The LHCb Collaboration has recently observed four $J/\psi\phi$ structures called $X(4140)$, $X(4274)$, $X(4500)$ and $X(4700)$ in the $B^{+}\to J/\psi\phi K^{+}$ decays. We study them herein using a nonrelativistic constituent quark model…

$Z_c(4430)$ discovered in $\bar{B}^0\to\psi(2S)K^-\pi^+$, $Z_c(4200)$ found in $\bar{B}^0\to J/\psi K^-\pi^+$, and $Z_1(4050)$ and $Z_2(4250)$ observed in $\bar{B}^0\to\chi_{c1}K^-\pi^+$ are candidates of charged charmonium-like states. All…

Making use of a recently proposed formalism, we analyze the composite nature of the $P_c(4450)$ resonance observed by LHCb. We show that the present data suggest that this state is almost entirely made of a $\chi_{c1}$ and a proton, due to…

In a previous work we presented a theoretical analysis of the $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi K^- p$ reaction from where a recent experiment by the LHCb collaboration at CERN claimed the existence of two hidden charm pentaquarks, $P_c(4380)^+$ and…

We have investigated the cross section for the $\pi^-p\rightarrow K^0\pi\Sigma$ and $pp\rightarrow pK^+\pi\Sigma$ reactions paying attention to a mechanism that develops a triangle singularity. The triangle diagram is realized by the decay…

Using proton-proton collision data at centre-of-mass energies of $\sqrt{s} = 7$, $8$ and $13\mathrm{\,TeV}$ recorded by the LHCb experiment at the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $9\mathrm{\,fb}^{-1}$,…

We show the effects of a triangle singularity mechanism for the $\gamma p \to K^+\Lambda(1405)$ reaction. The mechanism has a $N^*$ resonance around 2030 MeV, which decays into $K^* \Sigma$. The $K^*$ decays to $K^+ \pi$, and the $\pi…

The two exotic $P_c^+(4380)$ and $P_c^+(4450)$ discovered in $2015$ by the LHCb Collaboration, together with the four resonances $X(4140)$, $X(4274)$, $X(4500)$ and $X(4700)$, reported in $2016$ by the same collaboration, are described in a…
