The complexity of threshold phenomena is exemplified on a prominent and long-known case - the structure in the $\Lambda p$ cross section (invariant mass spectrum) at the opening of the $\Sigma N$ channel. The mass splitting between the…
In this talk I show recent results on how many excited baryon resonances appear as systems of one meson and one baryon, or two mesons and one baryon, with the mesons being either pseudoscalar or vectors. Connection with experiment is made…
This talk is a brief account of recent developments on light scalar meson spectroscopy. I mostly focus on the major revision of the $\sigma$ or $f_0(500)$ meson in the Review of Particle Physics, driven by new data and the accummulation of…
I selectively review the theoretical properties and observational limits pertaining to dark atoms, as well as composite dark matter candidates bound by a confining gauge interaction: dark glueballs, glueballinos, mesons and baryons.…
Triply heavy baryons with quark content $ccb$ and $cbb$ are investigated within the framework of Regge phenomenology. With the assumption of linear Regge trajectories, we have extracted the relations between Regge parameters and baryon…
A new Hamiltonian model is introduced to study the spectrum of light hadrons. It combines relativistic field theory with elements of the constituent quark model. In addition to the standard linear confining and pseudoscalar meson exchange…
The physics potential of a high-energy photon collider is reviewed. The emphasis is put on aspects related to the symmetry breaking sector, including Higgs searches and production of longitudinal vector bosons.
We summarize the current theoretical and experimental status of the spectral changes of vector mesons ($\rho$, $\omega$, $\phi$) at finite baryon density. Various approaches including QCD sum rules, effective theory of hadrons and bag…
In the low-energy regime light and strange baryons should be considered as systems of constituent quarks with confining interaction and a chiral interaction that is mediated by Goldstone bosons as well as by vector and scalar mesons. The…
We describe a calculation of the spectrum of strange and nonstrange hadrons that simultaneously correlates the dressed-quark-core masses of meson and baryon ground- and excited-states within a single framework. The foundation for this…
Stored antiprotons beams in the GeV range represent a unparalleled factory for hyperon-antihyperon pairs. Their outstanding large production probability in antiproton collisions will open the floodgates for a series of new studies of…
Light meson ( $\pi,\ \sigma,\ a_0$) properties in the environment with chiral imbalance are analyzed with the help of meson effective Lagrangian associated with QCD. New spatial parity violating decays of scalar mesons arise as a result of…
The properties of strange and charm mesons in nuclear matter and nuclei are reviewed. Different frameworks are presented and discussed paying a special attention to unitarized coupled-channel approaches. Possible experimental signatures of…
The algebraic treatment of baryons is extended to strange resonances. Within this framework we study a collective string-like model in which the radial excitations are interpreted as rotations and vibrations of the strings. We derive a mass…
Relativistic heavy ion collisions offer the possibility to produce exotic metastable states of nuclear matter containing (roughly) equal number of strangeness compared to the content in baryon number. The reasoning of both their stability…
An empirical principle for the construction of a linear relationship between the total angular momentum and squared-mass of baryons is proposed. In order to examine linearity of the trajectories, a rigorous least-squares regression analysis…
Purely baryonic weak decays of heavy baryons are investigated within the framework of the Skyrme model. These decays belong to a new class of unobserved decay channels, which would help us to test the standard model, particularly potential…
A previous work establishing a connection between a quark model, with relativistic kinematics and a $Y$-confinement plus one gluon exchange, and the $1/N_c$ expansion mass formula is extended to strange baryons. Both methods predict values…
We discuss several highly accurate theoretical predictions for masses of baryons containing the b quark which have been recently confirmed by experimental data. Several predictions are given for additional properties of heavy baryons. We…
We review the weak-decay and spectroscopy properties of baryons with two charmed quarks. We also present the convergent speculations on exotic mesons $(QQ\bar{q}\bar{q})$ with two heavy quarks and two light antiquarks.
