A Bayesian analysis of the world's p(gamma,K^+)Lambda data is presented. From the proposed selection of 11 resonances, we find that the following nucleon resonances have the highest probability of contributing to the reaction: S11(1535),…
We consider several classes of analytic parametrisations of hadronic scattering amplitudes, and compare their predictions to all available forward data (p p, pbar p, pi p, K p, gamma p, gamma gamma, Sigma p). Although these parametrisations…
Recently BES2 collaboration observed an enhancement near the $p\bar p$ invariant mass spectrum. Using the covariant tensor formalism, here we provide theoretical formulae for the partial wave analysis (PWA) of the $\psi$ radiative decay…
A comprehensive analysis of all available data on cross sections and spin-dependent observables for the $\gamma p \to K^+ \Sigma^0(1385)$, $\gamma n \to K^+ \Sigma^-(1385)$, and $\pi^+ p \to K^+ \Sigma^+(1385)$ reactions is performed within…
Semi-inclusive neutrino-nucleus scattering, corresponding to the simultaneous detection of a lepton and one or more hadrons in the final state, is shown to be much more sensitive to nuclear effects than the inclusive process. The…
The decay $\Xi^-_b \to \pi^- \Lambda_b$ has recently been observed by the LHCb Collaboration at CERN. In contrast to most weak decays of $b$-flavored baryons, this process involves the decay of the strange quark in $\Xi_b$, and thus has…
Modern hadron-spectroscopy experiments such as COMPASS collect data samples of unprecedented size, so that novel analysis techniques become possible and necessary. One such technique is the freed-isobar partial-wave analysis (PWA). In this…
A partial wave analysis of the centrally produced K+K- and K0K0 channels has been performed in pp collisions using an incident beam momentum of 450 GeV/c. An unambiguous physical solution has been found in each channel. The striking feature…
We explore the S-wave and P-wave amplitudes for $NNK$ and $\Lambda\Lambda K$ interactions using chiral perturbation theory to ${\cal O}(m_s\log m_s)$. In contrast to the large corrections found in P-wave amplitudes in the nonleptonic decay…
The $K^-d\rightarrow\pi\Lambda N$ reaction is useful for exploring the hyperon-nucleon interaction through final state interactions. In particular, the cusp structure of the $\Lambda N$ invariant mass spectrum at the $\Sigma N$ threshold…
We present a unitary multichannel model for $\bar{K}N$ scattering in the resonance region that fulfills unitarity. It has the correct analytical properties for the amplitudes once they are extended to the complex-$s$ plane and the partial…
The COMPASS experiment at CERN has collected a large dataset of $50$ million $\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$ events produced diffractively from a proton target using a $190\,\mathrm{GeV}/c$ pion beam. The partial-wave analysis (PWA) of these…
A partial-wave analysis of 9082 eta pi+ pi- n events produced in the reaction pi- p --> eta pi+ pi- n at 18.3 GeV/c has been carried out using data from experiment 852 at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The data are dominated by J^{PC} =…
The mechanism for the formation of the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance is studied in a chiral quark model that includes quark-meson as well as contact (four point) interactions. The negative-parity $S$-wave scattering amplitudes for strangeness…
We investigate the $\Lambda\Lambda$ and $K^-p$ intensity correlations in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. First, we examine the dependence of the $\Lambda\Lambda$ correlation on the $\Lambda\Lambda$ interaction and the $\Lambda\Lambda$…
We utilize a novel method for the partial-wave unitarity recently suggested in [1] to analyse the hypergeometric Coon amplitude. In this approach we use a new type of harmonic numbers as a basis. Owing to the properties of the harmonic…
A method is presented which makes considerably more transparent possible patterns behind low-energy scattering data. In particular, structures associated with resonances, such as locations, widths and heights, become visible with a naked…
Amplitude and partial wave analyses for pion, eta or kaon photoproduction are discussed in the context of `complete experiments'. It is shown that the model-independent helicity amplitudes obtained from at least 8 polarization observables…
