Inspired by the newly observed $\Xi_c^0$ states by the LHCb Collaboration, we investigate the OZI-allowed two-body strong decays of the $\lambda$-mode $1P$ wave $\Xi'_c$ states within the chiral quark model. Our results indicate that: (i)…
Three-body decay of charmed baryons $\Lambda^*_c(2595)$ and $\Lambda^*_c(2625)$ into $\Lambda_c \pi \pi$ are studied with effective Lagrangians in which the coupling constants are extracted from the non-relativistic quark model. We take…
Recent measurements of lifetimes of some $b$-flavored hadrons are presented and interpreted in the context of theoretical models, especially the Heavy Quark Expansion. Decay widths and decay width differences in the $B_s^0-\overline{B}_s^0$…
There are eighteen possibly existing $D^{(*)} \bar D^{(*)}$, $D^{(*)} \bar K^{(*)}$, and $D^{(*)} D_s^{(*)-}$ hadronic molecular states. We construct their corresponding interpolating currents, and calculate their masses and decay constants…
The $\Xi_b(6227)$ baryon with the quantum number $J^P=1/2^{-}$ is considered as a molecular state composed of a $\Sigma_b$ baryon and $\bar{K}$ meson. The partial decay widths of the $\Sigma_b\bar{K}$ molecular state into $\Xi_b\gamma$ and…
We study baryon resonances with heavy flavor in a molecular approach, thus as dynamically generated by baryon-meson scattering. This is accomplished by using a unitary coupled-channel model taking, as bare interaction, the extension of the…
Recently the Belle collaboration discovered two resonances, Zb(10610) and Zb(10650), that lie very close to the B\bar{B}^* and B^*\bar{B}^* thresholds, respectively. It is natural to suppose that these are molecular states of bottom and…
Recently, the LHCb Collaboration has reported two strange hidden-charm pentaquark states named $P^\Lambda_{\psi s}(4459)$ and $P^\Lambda_{\psi s}(4338)$ in the $ J/\psi \Lambda$ invariant mass spectra of decays $\Xi_b^-$$\to$$ J/\psi…
We study the quark structure of the sigma meson through the decay of $D_1(2430)$ meson by constructing an effective Lagrangian for charmed mesons interacting with light mesons based on the chiral symmetry and heavy quark symmetry. Within…
We explore molecular states of two open heavy-quark mesons (Q qbar)-(qbar Q) in a quark-based model in terms of a four-body non-relativistic Hamiltonian with pairwise effective interactions. Molecular states are found in the combinations of…
For very heavy quarks $Q$, relations derived from heavy-quark symmetry predict the existence of novel narrow doubly heavy tetraquark states of the form $Q_iQ_j \bar q_k \bar q_l$ (subscripts label flavors), where $q$ designates a light…
We carry out a systematic study of the heavy-light meson strong decays in a chiral quark model. For the $S$-wave vectors ($D^*(2007)$, $D^{*\pm}(2010)$), $P$-wave scalars ($D^*_0(2400)$, $B^*_0(5730)$) and tensors ($D^*_2(2460)$,…
With a quark level interaction, we give a unified description of the loosely bound molecular systems composed of the heavy flavor hadrons $(\bar{D},\bar{D}^*)$, $(\Lambda_c, \Sigma_c, \Sigma_c^*)$, and $(\Xi_c, \Xi_c^\prime,\Xi_c^*)$. Using…
We study the novel decays $B^{*}\to B\gamma\gamma $ and $D^{*}\to D\gamma \gamma $ using the framework of the Heavy Meson Chiral Lagrangian (HM$\chi$L) to leading order in chiral perturbation theory. The branching ratios of these decays are…
Hadronic B decays containing an parity-even charmed meson in the final state are studied. Specifically we focus on the Cabibbo-allowed decays $\bar B\to D^{**} \pi(\rho), D^{**}\bar D_s^{(*)}, \bar D^{**}_sD^{(*)}$ and $\bar B_s\to…
We studied the decays of Heavy baryon into a pseudoscalar meson and a dark baryon in the recently developed $B$-Mesogenesis scenario, where the two types of effective Lagrangians proposed by the scenario are both considered. The decay…
The progresses in the experimental sector have been the harbinger of the observations of many new hadrons. Very recently, LHCb Collaboration announced the observation of two new $\Sigma_b(6097)^{\pm}$ states in the $\Lambda^0_b\pi^{\pm}$…
We revisit the consequences of the heavy-quark spin symmetry for the possible spin partners of the $X(3872)$. We confirm that, if the $X(3872)$ were a $D\bar{D}^*$ molecular state with the quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{++}$, then in the strict…

Heavy-hadron chiral perturbation theory (HH$\chi$PT) is applied to the decays of the even-parity charmed strange mesons, D_{s0}(2317) and D_{s1}(2460). Heavy-quark spin symmetry predicts the branching fractions for the three electromagnetic…
