We discuss the mechanisms that lead to $\Lambda(1405)$ production in the $\pi^-p\to K^0\pi\Sigma$ reaction. The problem has gained renewed interest after different works converge to the conclusion that there are two resonances around the…
The $K^+$ and $K^0$ meson mass difference induces the mixing of the $a^0_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ resonances, the amplitude of which, between the $K^+K^-$ and $K^0\bar K^0$ thresholds, is large in magnitude, of the order of $…
We study the semileptonic decay of $\Lambda_c$ to $\nu l^+$ and $\Lambda(1405)$, where the $\Lambda(1405)$ is seen in the invariant mass distribution of $\pi \Sigma$. We perform the hadronization of the quarks produced in the reaction in…
The production of the $f_1(1285)$ resonance in the reaction of $K^- p \to f_1(1285) \Lambda$ is studied within an effective Lagrangian approach. The production process is described by the $t$ channel $K^{*+}$ meson exchange. My theoretical…
We investigate the characteristics of $\sigma$, $f_{0}(980)$, and $a_{0}(980)$ with the formalism of chiral unitary approach. With the dynamical generation of them, we make a further study of their properties by evaluating the couplings,…
We have made a thorough study of the $D^+ \to \pi^+ \eta \eta $ reaction, recently measured by the BESIII collaboration, which shows an abnormal strength at high invariant masses in the $\pi\eta$ mass distribution. We studied in detail the…
We study here the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi p \pi^-$ reaction in analogy to the $\Lambda^0_b \to J/\psi p K^-$ one, and we note that in both decays there is a sharp structure (dip or peak) in the $J/\psi p$ mass distribution around $4450$…
We study the singly-Cabibbo-suppressed decays $\Lambda_c^{+}\to p\eta$ and $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\to p\pi^{0}$ using $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\Lambda_{c}^{+}$ pairs produced by $e^+e^-$ collisions at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 4.6\; GeV$. The…
Using 20.3~${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data taken with the BESIII detector at the center-of-mass energy 3.773~GeV, we report the first amplitude analysis of the hadronic decay $D^{+} \rightarrow \pi^{+}\eta\eta$. The…
With the diquark structure of Lambda_c, we investigate the branching ratios of Lambda_c -> n pi^+ and p pi^0. The results show that without considering the final state interaction (FSI), the branching ration of Lambda_c -> p pi^+ is only of…
New high-statistics Belle data on the reaction \gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\eta are analyzed to clarify the two-photon production mechanisms and the nature of the a_0(980) meson. The obtained solution for the amplitude \gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\eta is…
In this report, we present our recent studies on the Lambda(1405,1/2-)=Lambda* photoproduction via the gamma p -> K+ pi Sigma scattering process, employing a coupled-channel formalism, i.e., the chiral unitary model, which respects chiral…
We investigate the structure of the scalar mesons $f_0(975)$ and $a_0(980)$ within realistic meson-exchange models of the $\pi\pi$ and $\pi\eta$ interactions. Starting from a modified version of the J\"ulich model for $\pi\pi$ scattering we…
We examine the D_s -> f_0(980) pi amplitude through a constituent quark-meson model, incorporating heavy quark and chiral symmetries, finding a good agreement with the recent E791 data analysis of D_s -> 3pi via f_0(980). The f_0(980)…
We investigate the resonant contributions in the decays $\bar{B}^0_{(s)} \to D^0 \pi^{+}\pi^{-}$, $\bar{B}^0_{(s)} \to D^0 K^{+}K^{-}$, and $\bar{B}^{0} \rightarrow D^{0} \pi^{0}\eta$ by considering the final state interactions within the…
We perform a calculation of the cross section for nine reactions induced by $\bar K$ scattering on protons. The reactions studied are $K^-p \to \Lambda \pi^+ \pi^-$, $K^-p \to \Sigma^0 \pi^+ \pi^-$, $K^-p \to \Lambda \pi^0 \eta$, $K^-p \to…
A study of the $\pi^0\pi^0$ system produced in charge exchange $\pi^-p$ collisions at 38 and 100 GeV/c and in central $pp$ interactions at 450 GeV/c has been carried out. The $S$ wave has rather a complicated structure in both processes…

The mechanism of the four-quark production of the light scalar isovector four-quark state $a_0(980)$ in the $D\to\eta\pi e^+\nu_e$ decays is discussed. It is shown that the characteristic features of the shape of the $\eta\pi$ mass spectra…
