It is proposed to exploit the decay of the meson ${B}^+ \rightarrow p \pi^+ \pi^+ \bar{\Sigma}_c^{--}$ and of its charge conjugate $B^-$ copiously produced at LHC to obtain a sample of $\Lambda_c$ baryons through the strong decay $\Sigma_c…

Recently LHCb experiments confirmed the findings of the two $P_c$ states in the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi p \pi^-$ decays. In the present work, we investigate both the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi K^- p$ and the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi p \pi^-$…

We calculate the branching ratio for the production of the meson $Y(4260)$ in the decay $B^- \to Y(4260)K^-$. We use QCD sum rules approach and we consider the $Y(4260)$ to be a mixture between charmonium and exotic tetraquark,…

We study the $Z_{cs}(3985)$ and $Z_{cs}(4000)$ exotic states in the decays of $\Lambda_b$ baryons through a molecular scenario. In the final state interaction, the $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda_c^+ D_s^{(*)-}$ decays are followed by the…

A partial width formula is proposed using the analytical extension of the wave function in momentum space. The distinction of the Riemann sheets is explained from the perspective of the Schrodinger equation. The analytical form in…

The decay $\Lambda_b^0 \to \eta_c(1S) p K^-$ is observed for the first time using a data sample of proton-proton collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.5 $fb^{-1}$, collected with the LHCb experiment at a center-of-mass…

We study the $\Lambda_{b}\to\Lambda_{c}\bar{D}^{0}K^{-}$ and $\Lambda_{b}\to \Lambda_{c}D^{-}\bar{K}^{0}$ decays which proceed via a Cabibbo and $N_c$ favored process of external emission, and we determine the $\bar{D}^{0}K^{-}$ and…
