We propose to study the $a_0(980)$ and the $\Lambda(1670)$ resonances in the $\Lambda^+_c \to \pi^+ \eta \Lambda$ decay via the final state interactions of the $\pi^+ \eta$ and $\eta \Lambda$ pairs. The weak interaction part proceeds…
We describe a new exact relation for large $N_c$ QCD for the long-distance behavior of baryon form factors in the chiral limit. This model-independent relation is used to test the consistency of the structure of several baryon models. All…
We report the results of several studies of the Lambda_c+pi+pi-X final state in continuum e+e- annihilation data collected by the Belle detector. An analysis of angular distributions in Lambda_c(2880)->Sigma_c(2455)pi decays strongly favors…
Partial decay widths of the heavy-light mesons, $D, D_s, B,$ and $B_s$, emitting one chiral particle ($\pi$ or $K$) are evaluated in the framework of a relativistic potential model. Decay amplitudes are calculated by keeping the Lorentz…
Inspired by the newly observed $\Lambda_b(6072)$ structure, we investigate its strong decay behaviors under various assignments within the $^3P_0$ model. Compared with the mass and total decay width, our results suggest that the…
We present an investigation of the decays $\bar{B}^0 \to \Lambda_{c}^{+} \bar{p}$ and $B^- \to \Lambda_{c}^{+} \bar{p} \pi^-$ based on $383\times10^6$ $\Upsilon(4S) \to B\bar{B}$ decays recorded with the BABAR detector. We measure the…
In order to study the properties of the $N^*$(1535) and $N^*$(1650) we calculate the mass distributions of $M B$ in the $\Lambda_c \rightarrow \bar{K}^0 M B$ decay, with $MB=\pi N(I=1/2),\eta p$ and $K\Sigma(I=1/2)$. We do this by…
In this talk I review the findings of our recent works where we have studied the decay of $N^*(1895)$ and the implications of such properties on the photoproduction of light hyperons. I discuss that meson-baryon interactions play an…
We apply a recent theoretical analysis of hadronic observables in inclusive semileptonic heavy hadron decays to the phenomenology of $B$ and $D$ mesons. Correlated bounds on the nonperturbative parameters $\bar\Lambda$ and $\lambda_1$ are…
The Lambdac(2940)+ baryon with possible quantum numbers J(P) = 1/2+ and 1/2- is studied as a molecular state composed of a nucleon and D* meson. We give predictions for the strong two-body decay channels Lambdac(2940)+ to p D0, Sigmac(++)…
We calculate the semi-leptonic decays of $\Lambda_c$ and $\Lambda_b$ baryons which involve transitions of a heavy quark to a light quark. In a previous work we used data on the Cabibbo favoured non-leptonic decays of charmed baryons…
We study the semileptonic $B_s$ and $B$ decays into the $D_{s 0}^{\ast} (2317)$ and $D_{0}^{\ast} (2400)$ resonances, respectively. With the help of a chiral unitarity model in coupled channels we compute the ratio of the decay widths of…
Hadronic form factors for semileptonic decay of the $\Lambda_c$ are calculated in a nonrelativistic quark model. The full quark model wave functions are employed to numerically calculate the form factors to all relevant orders in ($1/m_c$,…
We study the hadronic decays of $\Lambda_{c}^{+}$ to the final states $\Sigma^{+}\eta$ and $\Sigma^+\eta^\prime$, using an $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation data sample of 567 pb$^{-1}$ taken at a center-of-mass energy of 4.6 GeV with the BESIII…
In the large $N_c$ limit both heavy and light baryons are described by the universal mean field, which allows us to relate the properties of heavy baryons to light ones. With the only input from the decays of light octet baryons (due to the…
In this work we tried to predict the parameters of $B^{*}_c$ meson. Simple assumptions gave us following parametres $m_{B_{c}^{*}}=6329\pm 10$ MeV and $f_{B_{c}^{*}}= 535.5\pm57.8$ MeV (for $\Lambda_{B_{c}^{*}}=2.26\pm 0.14$ GeV in…
We analyze the mixing between $\Sigma^0$ and $\Lambda^0$ based on the baryon masses. We distinguish the contributions from QCD and QED in the baryon mass splittings. We find that the mixing angle between $\Sigma^0$ and $\Lambda^0$ is…
The structure and decay properties of $d^*$ have been detailedly investigated in both the chiral SU(3) quark model and the extended chiral SU(3) quark model that describe the energies of baryon ground states and the nucleon-nucleon (NN)…
We report the first observation of the $\Xi_{c}(2930)^0$ charmed-strange baryon with a significance greater than 5$\sigma$. The $\Xi_{c}(2930)^0$ is found in its decay to $K^- \Lambda_{c}^+$ in $B^{-} \to K^{-} \Lambda_{c}^{+}…
We consider the $X(3872)$ resonance as a $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ $D\bar D^*$ hadronic molecule. According to heavy quark spin symmetry, there will exist a partner with quantum numbers $2^{++}$, $X_{2}$, which would be a $D^*\bar D^*$ loosely bound…
