We consider the ${\bar D}^{(*)}\Sigma_c^{(*)}$ states, together with $J/\psi N$ and other coupled channels, and take an interaction consistent with heavy quark spin symmetry, with the dynamical input obtained from an extension of the local…

Quenched and unquenched quark models predict very different patterns for the spectrum of the low excited hyperon states. Evidence is accumulating for the existence of some new hyperon resonances, such as a $\Sigma^*$ of spin-parity…

This paper investigates the decay process $\Lambda_b \to \Sigma_c^{++} D^- K^-$ with the objective of finding a predicted molecular state with isospin $I=1$, $J^P=2^+$ of $D^* K^*$ nature, plus finding support for the $P_c(4312)$ state as…

We compute the low energy mass spectrum of lattice QCD in the large $N_C$ limit. Expanding around a gauge-invariant ground state, which spontaneously breaks the discrete chiral symmetry, we derive an improved strong-coupling expansion and…

We systematically study the mass spectra of $S$-wave singly-heavy tetraquark states $Qq\bar{q}\bar{q}$ ($Q=c,b$; $q=u,d,s$) in a mass splitting model. We adopt the assumption that the $X(4140)$ is the lowest $J^{PC}=1^{++}$…

We study the $D$-wave charmed baryons of $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{\bar3}_F$ using the method of QCD sum rule in the framework of heavy quark effective theory (HQET). We find that the $\Lambda_c(2880)$, $\Xi_c(3055)$ and $\Xi_c(3080)$ can be…

A potential quark model is used to search for a $P_{c\bar{c}s}^0=(c\bar{c}uds)^0$, $J^P=1/2^-$ pentaquark state that has recently been observed experimentally by the LHCb collaboration at 4338.2 MeV, with a width of 7.0 MeV and high…

Inspired by the observation of hidden-charm pentaquark $P_c$ and $P_{cs}$ states by the LHCb Collaboration, we explore the $qqc\bar{c}c$ ($q~=~u$ or $d$) pentaquark systems in the quark delocalization color screening model. The interaction…

Hidden-charm pentaquarks were first experimentally detected by LHCb in 2019, one of which is the exotic $P_{c\bar{c}}(4312)^{+}$ state. The nature of this state remains uncertain which may be attributed to the proximity of this observed…

The LHCb collaboration has recently announced the discovery of two hidden-charm pentaquark states with also strange quark content, $P_{cs}(4338)$ and $P_{cs}(4459)$; its analysis points towards having both hadrons isospin equal to zero and…
