We use the method of QCD Sum Rules to estimate the masses of the charm baryon, $\Lambda^+_c$, bottom baryon $\Lambda^0_b$, strange baryon $\Lambda^0_s$ and compare them to their experimental values.
Until now, the first reported doubly charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{+}(3520)$ is still a puzzle. It was discovered and confirmed by SELEX collaboration, but not confirmed by LHCb, BABAR, BELLE, FOCUS, or any other collaboration. In the present…
Baryons containing two heavy quarks are important and interesting systems to study the quark-diquark structure of baryons and to understand the dynamics of QCD at hadronic scale. The Selex Collaboration has recently reported the discovery…
We use the method of QCD sum rules to study the $D$-wave charmed and bottom baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$, and calculate their masses up to the order $\mathcal{O}(1/m_Q)$ with $m_Q$ the heavy quark mass. Our results suggest…
In this work, we study the charmonium spectrum within an unquenched quark model including coupled-channel effects. In couple-channel calculations, we include all of the opened charmed meson channels with the once-subtracted method,…
The measured masses of the three charge states of the charmed $\Sigma_c$ baryon are found to be in disagreement with a sum rule based on the quark model, but relying on no detailed assumptions about the form of the interaction. This poses a…
A new type of charm pentaquark $P_{cs}$ with quark content $c\bar{c}uds$ in light-flavor singlet state is studied in the quark model. This state is analogous to the $P_{c}$ with $c\bar{c}uud$ in light-flavor octet, which was observed in LHC…
Identifying the t-channel exchange of vector mesons as the driving force for the s-wave scattering of pseudo-scalar mesons off the baryon ground states, a surprisingly rich spectrum of molecules is formed. We argue that chiral symmetry and…
We construct the $\Sigma$-type currents to investigate the D-wave charmed baryon states with the QCD sum rules systematically. The predicted masses $M=3.35^{+0.13}_{-0.18}\,\rm{GeV}$ ($3.33^{+0.13}_{-0.16}\,\rm{GeV}$),…
The molecular assignments to the three $P_c$ states and the similar production mechanism between the $\Lambda_b\to P_c+K$ and $B\to XYZ+K$ convince us the $B$ decaying to a charmonium state plus light mesons could be the appropriate…
We study two-body weak decays of charmed baryons \Lambda_c and \Xi_c into an octet or decuplet baryon and a pseudoscalar meson employing the SU(3) flavor symmetry. Using certain measured Cabibbo-favored modes, we fix the reduced amplitudes…
In this proceedings report, we discuss unique features of charmed, or in general heavy, baryons with one heavy quark. A well and long-term known phenomena, the distinction of the two modes of the rho and lambda type of a three-quark system…
We elaborate masses of open-charm mesons (c\bar{d} and c\bar{s}) with J^P=0^-,1^-,0^+,1^+ from a viewpoint of ordinary light-heavy systems in the analysis of standard Borel-transformed QCD sum rule. This analysis is implemented with the…
In this talk, we show our recent theoretical results for three-body systems in the charm sector which are made of three hadrons and contain one nucleon, one $D$ meson and in addition another meson, $\bar{D}$, $K$ or $\bar{K}$.
We report here results on charm and strange hadron spectra. Adopting a mixed action approach, we use overlap fermions for valence quarks, on a background of 2+1+1 flavours HISQ gauge configurations of MILC collaboration. Two lattice…
We report on several studies of charm baryon production and decays by the BaBar collaboration. We confirm previous observations of the $\Xi_c^{'0/+}$, $\Xi_c(2980)^+$ and $\Xi_c(3077)^+$ baryons, measure branching ratios for…
The phenomenology of the so-called X, Y and Z hadronic resonances is hard to reconcile with standard charmonium or bottomonium interpretations. It has been suggested that some of these new hadrons can possibly be described as tightly bound…
We systematically investigate the possible molecular states composed of (1) two spin-$\frac{3}{2}$ doubly charmed baryons, and (2) a pair of spin-$\frac{3}{2}$ and spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ doubly charmed baryons. The one-boson-exchange (OBE)…
We take a new approach to determine the scale parameter $r_0$, the physical masses of strange and charm quarks through a global fit which incorporates continuum extrapolation, chiral extrapolation and quark mass interpolation to the lattice…
We compute the electromagnetic properties of spin-$\frac12$ doubly charmed baryons on 2+1 flavor lattices that have a pion mass of $\sim$ 156 MeV. The Tsukuba action is employed for the charm quark in addition to the standard isotropic…
