The dynamics of two heavy quarks inside the same hadron is probed against the double charm baryon results of SELEX. This can be seen as a part of the mechanism to bind tetraquarks with two heavy quarks and two light antiquarks. In the…
Very recently the LHCb Collaboration reported the discovery of two open charm tetraquark states, $X_{0}(2866)$ and $X_{1}(2904)$. In the present work, we study the $D^{(\ast)}$ and $\bar{K}^{(\ast)}$ interaction in the one-boson exchange…
We give heavy quark-diquark symmetry predictions for doubly heavy baryons and tetraquarks in light of the recent discovery of the $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ by LHCb. For five excited doubly charm baryons that are predicted to lie below the $\Lambda_c…
We present a study of mass spectra and electromagnetic couplings of S- and P-wave baryons containing one, two or three heavy quarks, either charm (c) or bottom (b), in the framework of a non-relativistic harmonic oscillator quark model. A…
In this work, we investigate the strong decays for $P-$wave excited states of doubly charmed and bottom baryons in the constituent quark model. Our results indicate that some $\lambda-$mode $\Xi_{cc/bb}(1P)$ and $\Omega_{cc/bb}(1P)$ states…
We study charmed and strange baryon resonances that are generated dynamically by a unitary baryon-meson coupled-channels model which incorporates heavy-quark spin symmetry. This is accomplished by extending the SU(3) Weinberg-Tomozawa…
We investigate hidden-charm pentaquark states using an off-shell coupled-channel formalism involving heavy meson and singly heavy baryon scattering. Our approach utilizes an effective Lagrangian to construct the kernel amplitudes, which…
The properties of charmed mesons in nuclear matter and nuclei are reviewed. Different frameworks are discussed paying a special attention to unitarized coupled-channel approaches which incorporate heavy-quark spin symmetry. Several charmed…
This paper presents a systematic investigation of the electromagnetic properties of the hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks within the constituent quark model. Specifically, it focuses on two types of pentaquarks: the $\Xi_c^{(\prime,*)}…
The LHCb collaboration has recently observed three narrow pentaquark states --- the $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$, and $P_c(4457)$ ---that are located close to the $\bar{D} \Sigma_c$ and $\bar{D}^* \Sigma_c$ thresholds. Among the so-far proposed…
We study the $N \bar D$ system by means of a chiral constituent quark model. This model, tuned in the description of the baryon and meson spectra as well as the $NN$ interaction, provides parameter-free predictions for the charm -1…
The discoveries of the $P_{\psi s}^\Lambda(4459)$ and $P_{\psi s}^\Lambda(4338)$ as the potential $\Xi_c\bar D^{(*)}$ molecules have sparked our curiosity in exploring a novel class of molecular $P_{\psi s}^{\Lambda/\Sigma}$ pentaquarks. In…
A diquark model is used to investigate single charmed baryons. In this model, baryon is composed of two diquarks and an antiquark. Masses of lowest lying states with $J^P= 1/2 ^ \pm$ are obtained. Some masses are smaller than other…
The phenomenology of the so-called X, Y and Z hadronic resonances is hard to reconcile with standard charmonium or bottomonium interpretations. It has been suggested that some of these new hadrons can possibly be described as tightly bound…
In this work, we adopt the one-boson-exchange model to study the $D^{(*)}K^{(*)}$ interactions. With the same parameters, we can simultaneously reproduce the masses of the $D_{s0}(2317)$, $D_{s1}(2460)$, and $T_{c\bar{s}}^{a0(++)}(2900)$…
We study possible multiquark contributions to the charm baryon spectrum by considering higher order Fock space components. For this purpose we perform two different calculations. In a first approach we do a coupled-channel calculation of…
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,…
The discovery of $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ by the LHCb Collaboration triggers predictions of more doubly charmed baryons. By taking into account both the $P$-wave excitations between the two charm quarks and the scattering of light pseudoscalar…
