The use of Heavy Quark Symmetry to study bottom and charmed baryons leads to important simplifications of the non-relativistic three body problem, which turns out to be easily solved by a simple variational ansatz. Our simple scheme…

We study the structure of the $\Lambda_c(2595)$ and $\Lambda_c(2625)$ resonances in the framework of an effective field theory consistent with heavy quark spin and chiral symmetries, that incorporates the interplay between…

A highly significant structure is observed in the $\Lambda_c^+K^-\pi^+\pi^+$ mass spectrum, where the $\Lambda_c^+$ baryon is reconstructed in the decay mode $pK^-\pi^+$. The structure is consistent with originating from a weakly decaying…

In the present work, we analyze the $P$-wave singly-heavy baryon spectrum belonging to $\mathbf{6}_F$ by combining the observations of the heavy baryon states, and restudy the strong decays of the $1P$ wave $\Sigma_b$ states within the…

We study the implications for $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c^*\ell\bar{\nu}_\ell$ and $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c^*\pi^-$ $[\Lambda_c^*=\Lambda_c(2595)$ and $\Lambda_c(2625)]$ decays that can be deduced from heavy quark spin symmetry (HQSS).…

The first search for the doubly heavy $\it{\Omega}_{bc}^{\rm0}$ baryon and a search for $\it{\Xi}_{bc}^{\rm0}$ baryon are performed using $pp$ collision data collected via the LHCb experiment from 2016 to 2018 at a centre-of-mass energy of…

The mass and pole residue of the ground and first radially excited $ \Omega_c^{0}$ states with spin-parities $J^{P}=1/2^{+},\,3/2^{+}$, as well as P-wave $\Omega_c^{0}$ with $J^{P}=1/2^{-},\,3/2^{-}$ are calculated by means of the two-point…

In our former work [arXiv:2011.07214], the $P_{cs}(4459)$ observed by the LHCb Collaboration can be explained as a coupled strange hidden-charm $\Xi_c\bar{D}^*/\Xi_c^*\bar{D}/\Xi_c'\bar{D}^*/\Xi_c^*\bar{D}^*$ molecule with…

In this work we provide predictions for bottom-strange molecular states within the Hidden Gauge Formalism. We study the coupled-channel scattering of $B^{(*)}\bar{K}^{(*)}$ states and, by fixing only one free parameter to obtain the mass of…

Combining the quark model, the quark-pair-creation mechanism and $B^{(*)}\bar K$ interaction, we have investigated the near-threshold $P$-wave $B_s$ states in the framework of the Hamiltonian effective field theory. With the heavy quark…

Inspired by the results of recent experimental discoveries for charm and bottom baryons, the masses and magnetic moments of the heavy baryons with $J^P=3/2^+$ containing a single heavy quark are studied within light cone QCD sum rules…

A number of candidate multiquark hadrons, i.e., particle resonances with substructures that are more complex than the quark-antiquark mesons and three-quark baryons that are prescribed in the textbooks, have recently been observed. In this…

We predict several new exotic doubly-heavy hadronic resonances, inferring from the observed exotic bottomonium-like and charmonium-like narrow states $X(3872)$, $Z_b(10610)$, $Z_b(10650)$, $Z_c(3900)$, and $Z_c(4020/4025)$. We interpret the…
