We report our recent effort for the extraction of resonance parameters (complex pole mass and residues etc.) associated with Lambda* and Sigma* hyperons. This was accomplished via a comprehensive partial-wave analysis of the data for K^- p…

The T2K neutrino oscillation experiment established the $\nu_\mu \rightarrow \nu_e$ appearance with only $10\%$ of the original beam request of $7.8\times10^{21}$ $30$ GeV protons on target (POT). In view of the J-PARC program of upgrades…
Among the light baryons, the $J^\pi = \frac{1}{2}^-$ $\Lambda(1405)$ hyperon is an important special case as it sits just below the $N\bar{K}$ threshold and decays almost exclusively to $\Sigma\pi$. Some long-standing hypotheses for…
We report on the measurement of the $\gamma p \rightarrow J/\psi p$ cross section from $E_\gamma = 11.8$ GeV down to the threshold at $8.2$ GeV using a tagged photon beam with the GlueX experiment. We find the total cross section falls…
Photonuclear reactions are induced by the strong electromagnetic field generated by ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. These processes have been extensively studied in ultraperipheral collisions, where the impact parameter is larger…

The lineshape of the Lambda(1405) was studied in the pp -> pK+ Y0 reaction at a beam momentum of 3.65 GeV/c at COSY-Juelich. The ANKE spectrometer was used to identify two protons, one positively charged kaon, and one negatively charged…
The polarization of the $\Lambda$ and $\overline{\Lambda}$ hyperons along the beam direction has been measured in proton-lead (pPb) collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 8.16 TeV. The data were obtained with the CMS…
The J\"ulich-Bonn dynamical coupled-channel approach is extended to include $K\Sigma$ photoproduction off the proton. Differential cross section and (double) polarization data for $K^+\Sigma^0$ and $K^0\Sigma^+$ are analysed simultaneously…
We describe the current status of the DarkLight experiment at Jefferson Laboratory. DarkLight is motivated by the possibility that a dark photon in the mass range 10 to 100 MeV/c$^2$ could couple the dark sector to the Standard Model.…
