We give reasons for the existence of the NN decoupled dibaryon resonance $d^*_1$(1956). Strong evidence for its presence has first been found in the energy spectrum of coincident photons emitted at $\pm 90^0$ from the $pp \to \gamma\gamma…
The differential cross section for the process $\gamma \gamma \to \pi^0 \pi^0$ has been measured in the kinematic range 0.6 GeV $< W < 4.1$ GeV, $|\cos \theta^*|<0.8$ in energy and pion scattering angle, respectively, in the $\gamma\gamma$…
The $N\Delta\to NN$ cross sections, which take into account the $\Delta$-mass dependence of M-matrix and momentum $p_{N\Delta}$, are applied on the calculation of pion production within the framework of the UrQMD model. Our study shows that…
The production rate of the X(5568) observed by D0 collabotation is quite large and can not be understood by various general hadronization mechanism. We propose an inclusive resonance production formulation to calculate the cross section and…
