Inspired by the newly observed $\Xi_c^0$ states by the LHCb Collaboration, we investigate the OZI-allowed two-body strong decays of the $\lambda$-mode $1P$ wave $\Xi'_c$ states within the chiral quark model. Our results indicate that: (i)…

The strong and radiative decay properties of the low-lying $\Omega_c$ states are studied in a constituent quark model. We find that the newly observed $\Omega_c$ states by the LHCb Collaboration can fit in well the decay patterns. Thus,…

This work is dedicated to the search for a $\pi\Lambda N\!-\!\pi\Sigma N$ resonance $\mathcal{Y}$ with the quantum numbers ($Y,I,J^P$) = (1,3/2,$2^+$). The double charged $\Sigma(1385)N\!-\!\Delta(1232)Y$ quasibound state was looked for in…

We show that higher order inter-group covariances involving even number of qubits are necessarily positive semidefinite for N qubit separable states, which are completely symmetric under permutations of the qubits. This identification leads…

The LHCb Collaboration has recently observed two narrow baryon resonances with beauty. Their masses and decay modes look consistent with the quark model orbitally excited states Lambda_b(5912) and Lambda*_b(5920), with quantum numbers…

The strong and radiative decays of the low-lying $S$- and $P$-wave $\Lambda_{c(b)}$, $\Sigma_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}'$ and $\Omega_{c(b)}$ baryons are systematically studied in a constituent quark model. We find that the…

We review the status as regards the existence of three- and four-body bound states made of neutrons and $\Lambda$ hyperons. For interesting cases, the coupling to neutral baryonic systems made of charged particles of different strangeness…

In this article, we systematically discuss the decay patterns of the hidden-strange hadronic molecular state $N(2270)$ which is assumed as an S-wave $K^\ast\Sigma^\ast$ shallow bound state with its possible quantum numbers $J^P$ which are…

Here we investigate the decay patterns of the low-lying hidden strangeness nucleon resonances ($\equiv N_{s\bar{s}}$) to the strangeness channels by employing the chiral Lagrangian approach, where the $N_{s\bar{s}}$ states are treated as…

The equilibrium between the so-called 2SC and CFL phases of strange quark matter at high densities is investigated in the framework of a simple schematic model of the NJL type. Equal densities are assumed for quarks $u,d$ and $s$. The 2SC…

Very recently, three new structures $\Xi_c(2923)^0$, $\Xi(2938)^0$, and $\Xi(2964)^0$ at the invariant mass spectrum of $\Lambda_c^{+}K^{-}$ observed by the LHCb Collaboration triggers a hot discussion about their inner structure. In this…

We present a detailed study of the partial decay widths of a spin-parity resonance $J^P=3/2^-$ $N^*$ with a mass of $\simeq$ 2070 MeV obtained from the coupled channel s wave vector-baryon $\rho N$, $\omega N$, $\phi N$, $K^*\Lambda$ and…

In the framework of the chiral quark model, we investigate the hidden strange pentaquark system of the $N\phi$ state with the quantum numbers of IJ=$\frac{1}{2}$$\frac{3}{2}$. The results show that the $N\phi$ state can be bound through the…

The possibility of $QQ\bar{q}\bar{q}$ heavy-light four-quark bound states has been analyzed by means of the chiral SU(3) quark model, where $Q$ is the heavy quark ($c$ or $b$) and $q$ is the light quark ($u$, $d$ or $s$). We obtain a bound…

Using new experimental data on photoproduction and $\Lambda_b^0$ decays, we derive constraints on the properties of the LHCb $P_c$ states. We conclude that $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4440)$ can be described as $\Sigma_c\bar D$,…
