We explore the recently observed $\Xi_b(6227)^{-}$ resonance to fix its quantum numbers. To this end, we consider various possible scenarios: It can be considered as either 1P/2S excitations of the $\Xi_b^-$ and $\Xi_b'(5935)^{-}$ ground…
We extend the nonrelativistic QCD framework to explore the nature of the newly discovered di-$J/\psi$ resonances. Assuming them as either molecule-like states or tetraquarks, we calculated their hadroproduction cross sections at the LHC. We…
