Using the chiral unitary approach in coupled channels and $SU(3)$ symmetry we describe the production of $f_0(500)$, $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ in the $\chi_{c1} \to \eta \pi^+ \pi^-$ reaction, recently performed by the BESIII collaboration.…

We present measurements of the Cabibbo-suppressed decays $\Lambda_c^+ \to \Lambda^0 K^+$ and $\Lambda_c^+ \to \Sigma^0 K^+$ (both first observations), $\Lambda_c^+ \to \Sigma^+ K^+\pi^-$ (seen with large statistics for the first time),…
Motivated by the resent BESIII Collaboration measurements of the process $D^+\to\pi^+\eta\eta$, we investigate this process by considering the contribution from the resonance $a_0(980)$, which is generated by $S$-wave pseudoscalar…

Based on our previous work about the role of $a_0(1710)$ in the $D_s^+\to\pi^+K_S^0K_S^0$ decay [Phy. Rev. D 105, 116010 (2022)], we perform a further theoretical study of $a_0(1710)^+$ in the process $D^+_s \to \pi^0 a_0(1710)^+ \to \pi^0…
The decays $D^0\to d\bar u\,e^+\nu\to a^-_0(980)\, e^+\nu\to\pi^-\eta\, e^+\nu$ and $D^+\to d\bar d\,e^+\nu\to a^0_0(980)\, e^+\nu\to\pi^0\eta\, e^+\nu$ (and the charge conjugated ones) is the direct probe of the two-quark components in the…
Based on Belle data, the structure around 1435 MeV and the role of the $\Sigma(1380)$ resonance in the decay process $\Lambda_c \to \Lambda \pi^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ are investigated. The $\Lambda \pi^\pm$ invariant mass spectra are approximately…
In this work, we analyze the semi-leptonic decays $\bar B^0/D^0 \to (a_0(980)^{\pm}\to\pi^{\pm}\eta) l^{\mp} \nu$ within light-cone sum rules. The two and three-body light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) of the $B$ meson and the only…
A $\Sigma^*$ state with spin-parity $J^P = 1/2^-$ with mass and width around $1380$ MeV and $120$ MeV, refereed to as the $\Sigma^*_{1/2^-}(1380)$, has been predicted in several pentaquark models and inferred from the analysis of CLAS…
In the present work, we investigate the decays of $B^{0}_{s} \rightarrow \phi\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ and $B^{0} \rightarrow \phi\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ with the final state interactions based on the chiral unitary approach. In the final state interactions…
We perform calculations for the $\eta_c \to \eta \pi^+ \pi^-$ decay using elements of SU(3) symmetry to see the weight of different trios of pseudoscalars produced in this decay, prior to the final state interaction of the mesons. After…
