The LHCb experiment has recently reported two excited $\Omega_c$ resonances decaying to $\Xi_c^+ K^-$, with masses about 3185 and 3327 MeV. We discuss their assignment to $2S_{1/2}$ and $2S_{3/2}$ states, which can be compared with masses…
In this paper, we presented the mass spectra of the doubly heavy $\Omega$ baryons containing one light (strange) quark and two heavy (charm and bottom) quarks. Our predicted masses can be consider to determine the $J^p$ value for the…
One possible interpretation of two narrow $\Omega^0_c$ states reported by the LHCb Collaboration at CERN in 2017 is that they are pentaquarks belonging to a $\overline{\boldsymbol{15}}$ exotic SU(3) representation, as predicted by the…
Possible spin-parity quantum numbers for excited charmed baryon resonances are discussed in this work. Our main results are: (i) Among the five newly observed $\Omega_c$ states, we have identified $\Omega_c(3090)$ and $\Omega_c(3119)$ with…
The heavy baryon system bounded by the strong interaction has a rich internal structure, so its mass spectra can have the fine structure similar to the line spectra of atom bounded by the electromagnetic interaction. We systematically study…
The exciting discovery by LHCb of the $P_c(4312)^+$ and $P_c(4450)^+$ pentaquarks, or the suggestion of a tetraquark nature for the $Z_c(3900)$ state seen at BESIII and Belle, have triggered a lot of activity in the field of hadron physics,…
Recent experimental evidence for the Theta^+(1540) has given rise to much theoretical interest in exotic baryons. The Theta^+ is a baryon that has strangeness S=+1, meaning that it contains an anti-strange quark. Thus it cannot be…
We discuss possible interpretation of five excited $\Omega^0_c$ states within the Chrial Quark Soliton Model. We show that it is not possible to interpret all five $\Omega^0_c$'s as parity minus excitations and argue that two narrowest…
The masses and residues of the radially excited heavy $\Omega_c^{0}$ and $ \Omega_b^{-}$ baryons with spin-parity $J^{P}=\frac{1}{2}^{+}$ and $J^{P}= \frac{3}{2}^{+}$ are calculated by means of QCD two-point sum rule method using the…
Motivated by the recent discovery of the exotic S=+1 narrow baryon resonance Theta^+ at 1540 MeV, with quark content {uudd sbar}, we conjecture the existence of its anti-charmed analogue Theta_c, with quark content {uudd cbar}, and compute…
A search for the doubly charmed baryon $\it{\Omega}_{cc}^{+}$ with the decay mode $\it{\Omega}_{cc}^{+}\to\it{\Xi}_c^{+}K^{-}\pi^{+}$ is performed using proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13$\mathrm{\,Te\kern -0.1em…
The LHCb Experiment at CERN has observed a doubly-charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++} =ccu$ with a mass of $3621.40 \pm 0.78$ MeV, consistent with many predictions. We use the same methods that led us to predict $M(\Xi_{cc},~J^P{=}1/2^+) = 3627…
We study the $C=1$, $S=-2$, $I=0$ sector, where five excited $\Omega_c$ states have been recently observed by the LHCb Collaboration. We start from a recently developed unitarized baryon-meson model that takes, as bare baryon-meson…
The spectrum of the $c qq$ baryons contains a few states whose nature is not clearly a three-quark composite and which might have a sizable baryon-meson component. Examples include the $\Sigma_c(2800)$ or the $\Lambda_c(2940)$. Here we…
The strange-anticharmed Pentaquark is a uud(cbar)s or udd(cbar)s five-quark baryon that is expected to be either a narrow resonance, or possibly even stable against strong decay. We describe this hyperon here; its structure, binding energy…
The strange-anticharmed Pentaquark is a $uud\bar{c}s$ or $udd\bar{c}s$ five-quark baryon that is expected to be either a narrow resonance, or possibly even stable against strong and electromagnetic decay. We describe this hyperon here, its…
The first observation of the $\Omega_b^- \to \Xi_c^+ K^- \pi^-$ decay is reported using $pp$ collision data at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13\,$\mathrm{TeV}$ collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated…
We report the first observation of an excited singly-charm baryon OmegaC* (css) in the radiative decay OmegaC0 Gamma, where the OmegaC0 baryon is reconstructed in the decays to the final states Omega-pi+, Omega-pi+pi0, Omega-pi+pi-pi+, and…
Models based on chiral symmetry predict pentaquarks that have relatively low masses. We briefly review both theoretical and experimental status of exotica in the light sector. Next, shall show how to extend chiral models to baryons with one…
The LHCb collaboration has recently discovered three pentaquark-like states --- the $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ --- close to the $\bar{D} \Sigma_c$ and the $\bar{D}^* \Sigma_c$ meson-baryon thresholds. The standard…
