We propose a new application of lattice QCD to calculate the quark-diquark potential, diquark mass and quark mass required for the diquark model. As a concrete example, we consider the $\Lambda_c$ baryon and treat it as a…
We present measurements of the total production rates and momentum distributions of the charmed baryon $\Lambda_c^+$ in $e^+e^- \to$ hadrons at a center-of-mass energy of 10.54 GeV and in $\Upsilon(4S)$ decays. In hadronic events at 10.54…

In-medium properties of the low-lying baryons are studied in the quark-meson coupling (QMC) model, focusing on the $\Sigma_b$ and $\Xi_b$ baryons. It is predicted that the Lorentz-scalar effective mass of $\Sigma_b$ becomes smaller than…
Charmed baryon strong decays are studied in a chiral quark model. The data for the decays of $\Lambda^+_c(2593)$, $\Lambda^+_c(2625)$, $\Sigma^{++,+,0}_c$ and $\Sigma^{+,0}_c(2520)$, are accounted for successfully, which allows to fix the…
