In this article, we construct the six-quark currents with the $J^P=0^+$, $0^-$, $1^+$ and $1^-$ to study the $\Lambda_c$$\Lambda_c$ dibaryon and $\Lambda_c$$\bar{\Lambda}_c$ baryonium states via QCD sum rules. We consider the vacuum…
We use a combination of quark-antiquark and $B^{(*)}K$ interpolating fields to predict the mass of two QCD bound states below the $B^*K$ threshold in the quantum channels $J^P=0^+$ and $1^+$. The mesons correspond to the b-quark cousins of…
Heavy-flavor physics offers the opportunity to make indirect tests of physics beyond the Standard Model through precision measurements, and of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) through particle production studies. The rare decays B0s, B0 and D0…

We study the F-wave c_bar s heavy meson doublets (2+,3+) and (3+,4+). They have large orbital excitations L=3, and may be good challenges (tests) for theoretical studies. To study them we use the method of QCD sum rule in the framework of…

In this work, we adopt the $^3P_0$ model to investigate the strong decays of the low-lying doubly bottom baryons in the $j-j$ coupling scheme systematically. In this scheme, we construct the formulism of $^3P_0$ model under the spectator…
The $\Xi_b(6227)$ baryon with the quantum number $J^P=1/2^{-}$ is considered as a molecular state composed of a $\Sigma_b$ baryon and $\bar{K}$ meson. The partial decay widths of the $\Sigma_b\bar{K}$ molecular state into $\Xi_b\gamma$ and…
In the experiment, only one doubly charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ was successfully identified. The LHCb collaboration is poised to discover other doubly heavy baryon, $\Xi_{cc}^{+}$ and $\Xi_{bc}^{+}$, necessitating a comprehensive study of…
LHCb Collaboration first observed a doubly charmed baryon $\Xi^{++}_{cc}$ in the $\Lambda^{+}_{c}K^{-}\pi^{+}\pi^{+}$ decay with a mass of $3621.40\pm0.72\pm0.27$ MeV. In this paper, we enumerated the mass spectra of the radial and orbital…

We study the strong decays of the newly observed $\Xi_b(6227)$ assuming that it is a pure $\Sigma_b\bar{K}$ molecular state. Considering four possible spin-parity assingments $J^P=1/2^{\pm}$ and $3/2^{\pm}$, the partial decay widths of the…
