We study the decay of $\Lambda_b\to J/\psi\Lambda\phi$ by taking into account the intermediate resonances $X(4140)$, $X(4160)$, and $P_{cs}(4459)$. In addition to the peak of the $X(4140)$, we also find a bump structure around 4160 MeV…
We study the semileptonic decay of $\Lambda_c$ to $\nu l^+$ and $\Lambda(1405)$, where the $\Lambda(1405)$ is seen in the invariant mass distribution of $\pi \Sigma$. We perform the hadronization of the quarks produced in the reaction in…
We calculate the shape of the $\pi\Sigma$ and $\bar K N$ invariant mass distributions in the $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi\, \pi\Sigma$ and $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi \,\bar K N$ decays that are dominated by the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance. The weak…
We propose a novel scenario for the peak structures, usually interpreted as hidden charm pentaquark ($P_c$) contributions, in the LHCb's $\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi p K^-$ data. The key idea is to utilize leading or lower-order singularities…
This paper investigates the decay process $\Lambda_b \to \Sigma_c^{++} D^- K^-$ with the objective of finding a predicted molecular state with isospin $I=1$, $J^P=2^+$ of $D^* K^*$ nature, plus finding support for the $P_c(4312)$ state as…
We study the weak decay of the $\Lambda_b$ baryon into $J/\psi\ \phi\ \Lambda$, a process that is particularly well suited to analyze the physics of some of the recently observed or theoretically predicted exotic hadrons, as one expects to…
The strong decays of the low-lying $\lambda$-mode $\Lambda_b(1D,2S)$ and $\Sigma_b(2S)$ states are studied in a chiral quark model. We find that: (i) the newly observed $\Lambda_b(6146/6152)$ resonances in the $\Lambda_b\pi^+\pi^-$ spectrum…
The BESIII Collaboration recently reported the observation of the $a_0(980)^0-f_0(980)$ mixing in the isospin breaking decay $J/\psi\to \eta\pi^0\phi$. In the Dalitz plot for that decay with the $\eta$ reconstructed from two photons, there…
We have performed a study of the $\Lambda^0_b \to \eta_c K^- p$ and $\Lambda^0_b \to \eta_c \pi \Sigma$ reactions based on the dominant Cabibbo favored weak decay mechanism. We show that the $K^- p$ produced only couples to $\Lambda^*$…
Using updated measurements and SU(3)-breaking form factors, we have a detailed look at the B_d -> pi^+ pi^-, B_s -> K^+ K^- and B_d -> pi^\mp K^\pm, B_s -> pi^\pm K^\mp systems. The corresponding decays are related to each other by the…
In the present work, we analyze the $P$-wave singly-heavy baryon spectrum belonging to $\mathbf{6}_F$ by combining the observations of the heavy baryon states, and restudy the strong decays of the $1P$ wave $\Sigma_b$ states within the…
Using data from the FOCUS experiment (FNAL-E831), we study the decay of $\Lambda^+_c$ baryons into final states containing a $\Lambda$ hyperon. The branching fractions of $\Lambda^+_c$ into $\Lambda \pi^+$, $\Lambda \pi^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$ and…
A narrow pentaquark state, $P_c(4312)^+$, decaying to $J/\psi p$ is discovered with a statistical significance of $7.3\sigma$ in a data sample of ${\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi p K^-}$ decays which is an order of magnitude larger than that…
We study three-body decays of $\Lambda_c^{*}(2765) \to \Lambda_c^+\pi^+\pi^-$ by using effective Lagrangians in a non-relativistic framework. We consider the sequential decays through $\Sigma_c(2455)\pi$ and $\Sigma_c^*(2520)\pi$ in…
An amplitude analysis of the decay $\Lambda_b^0\to D^0 p \pi^-$ is performed in the part of the phase space containing resonances in the $D^0 p$ channel. The study is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0…
We have studied the $\gamma p \to p \pi^0 \eta$ reaction paying attention to the two main mechanisms at low energies, the $\gamma p \to \Delta(1700) \to \eta \Delta(1232)$ and the $\gamma p \to \Delta(1700) \to \pi N(1535)$. Both of them…
he observed well-known resonances $\Sigma^0$ $\Sigma^{*+}$(1385) and $K^{*\pm}$(892) from PDG are good tests of this method. Exotic strange multibaryon states have been observed in the effective mass spectra of: $\Lambda \pi^{\pm}$,$\Lambda…
