The development of chiral perturbation theory in hyperon phenomenology has been troubled due to power-counting subtleties and to a possible slow convergence. Furthermore, the presence of baryon-resonances, e.g. the lowest-lying decuplet,…
I review hadronic processes involving strange hadrons, especially hyperons from the quark structure point of view. The strong interaction of quarks expects several important new features when the strangeness is introduced upon the…
The Standard Model of particle physics-the theory of particles and interactions at the smallest scale-predicts that matter and antimatter interact differently due to violation of the combined symmetry of charge conjugation ($C$) and parity…
We discuss prospects for detecting the two charm-related phenomena of $D^0$-${\bar D}^0$ mixing and weak radiative decays of $D$ mesons ({\it e.g.} $D\to K^* + \gamma$). A general update of particle-antiparticle mixing for the pseudoscalar…
Meson-baryon systems with strangeness content provide a unique laboratory for investigating the strong interaction and testing theoretical models of hadron structure and dynamics. In this work, the measured correlation functions for…
This work presents the first experimental observation of the attractive strong interaction between a proton and a multi-strange baryon (hyperon) $\Xi^-$. The result is extracted from two-particle correlations of combined…
Dark sector particles at the GeV scale carrying baryon number provide an attractive framework for understanding the origin of dark matter and the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the universe. We demonstrate that dark decays of hadronic…
Narrow Xi-pi+- and Xi-bar+pi+- resonances produced by quasi-real photons have been searched for by the COMPASS experiment at CERN. The study was stimulated by the recent observation of an exotic baryonic state decaying into Xi-pi-, at a…
Main theoretical approaches to weak radiative hyperon decays are briefly reviewed. It is emphasized that only approaches with great predictive power should be seriously considered when seeking a resolution of the puzzle presented by…
Using a sample of $(448.1~\pm~2.9)$ $\times 10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ decays collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we report an observation of $\Xi^{-}$ transverse polarization with a significance of $7.3 \sigma$ in the decay…
The hyperon-hyperon and hyperon-nucleon interactions are important in search for exotic hadrons such dibaryon as a bound state of two baryons. $\Lambda$-$\Lambda$ correlation has been measured in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ =…
We report the first observation of two narrow charmed strange baryons decaying to $\Xi_c^+\gamma$ and $\Xi_c^0\gamma$, respectively, using data from the CLEO II detector at CESR. We interpret the observed signals as the…
Recently the Belle II Collaboration has reported a measurement of the $B^+\to K^+\nu\bar\nu$ rate that is higher than the standard-model expectation. Since the emitted neutrinos are unobserved, the excess could be due to the $B^+$ decaying…
We study the weak decay $\Omega_b^- \to (\Xi_c^+ \, K^-) \, \pi^-$, in view of the narrow $\Omega_c$ states recently measured by the LHCb collaboration and later confirmed by the Belle collaboration. The $\Omega_c(3050)$ and…
The discrete symmetries C, P and CP are known to be violated by the weak interaction. It is possible to probe the breaking of these symmetries using asymmetries constructed from triple products based on the decay of some particle M to a…
Aiming on testing the $\Xi_c-\Xi_c'$ mixing, we study the decays of $\Xi_{cc}\to \Xi_c \pi$ with $\Xi_{cc} = (\Xi_{cc}^{++} , \Xi_{cc} ^+ )$, $\Xi_c = (\Xi_c^{(\prime)+},\Xi_c^{(\prime)0})$ and $\pi = (\pi^+ , \pi^0)$. The soft-meson limit…
The LHCb collaboration has presented first experimental evidence that spin-carrying matter and antimatter differ. The study looked at four-body decays of the $\Lambda_b^0$ baryon. Differences in the behaviour of matter and antimatter are…

Using the largest $J/\psi$ and $\psi(3686)$ data samples collected at the BESIII experiment, the hyperon anti-hyperon pairs are generated in their quantum entangle system. The polarization of hyperon has been observed, which makes it…
Weak radiative hyperon decays are considered in the framework of a quark model. The phenomenological model includes 1-quark transitions with the effective $sd\gamma$-vertex and 2-quark ones with the W-exchange $s+u\to u+d+\gamma$ and turns…
