Three neutral resonances $\Xi_c(2923)^0$, $\Xi_c(2939)^0$ and $\Xi_c(2965)^0$ have been observed in the $\Lambda_c^+ K^-$ mass spectrum by the LHCb Collaboration. Given the $\Xi_c$ and $\Xi_c^\prime$ mass spectra predicted by the…
We present a study of two-body decay widths of heavy baryons into another heavy baryon and a light pseudoscalar meson in the framework of the non-relativistic quark model in combination with the elementary emission model for the strong…
We present a detailed study of the partial decay widths of a spin-parity resonance $J^P=3/2^-$ $N^*$ with a mass of $\simeq$ 2070 MeV obtained from the coupled channel s wave vector-baryon $\rho N$, $\omega N$, $\phi N$, $K^*\Lambda$ and…
A search for charmed baryons decaying to $D^0 p$ reveals two states: the $\Lambda_c(2880)^+$ baryon and a previously unobserved state at a mass of [$2939.8\pm 1.3 \text{(stat.)}\pm 1.0 \text{(syst.)}$]~\mevcc and with an intrinsic width of…
Very recently, three new structures $\Xi_c(2923)^0$, $\Xi(2938)^0$, and $\Xi(2964)^0$ at the invariant mass spectrum of $\Lambda_c^{+}K^{-}$ observed by the LHCb Collaboration triggers a hot discussion about their inner structure. In this…
It is shown that, in the bound state picture, the $\Lambda_c(2593) \to\Lambda_c\gamma$ and $\Lambda_c(2625)\to\Lambda_c\gamma$ decays are severely suppressed. On the other hand, for their bottom counterparts, which are predicted to have…
Understanding the properties of the strange $\Lambda^*$ baryon resonances is a long-standing and fascinating problem. $\Lambda_c$ charm-baryon semileptonic weak decays to these resonances are highly sensitive to their internal structure and…
We use the method of QCD sum rules within the framework of heavy quark effective theory to study the mass spectrum of the $\Sigma_{b}(6097)^{\pm}$ and $\Xi_{b}(6227)^{-}$, and use the method of light-cone sum rules still within the heavy…
The hadronic two-body weak decays of the doubly charmed baryons $\Xi_{cc}^{++}, \Xi_{cc}^+$ and $\Omega_{cc}^+$ are studied in this work. To estimate the nonfactorizable contributions, we work in the pole model for the $P$-wave amplitudes…
The strong decay amplitudes and radiative partial widths of orbital and radially excited states of $B$ and $B_s$ mesons are presented. These results are obtained with a nonrelativistic potential quark model, the nonrelativistic reduction of…
The strong decay properties of the newly observed states $D_{sJ}(3040)$, $D_{sJ}(2860)$ and $D_{sJ}(2710)$ are studied in a constituent quark model with quark-meson effective Lagrangians. We find that the $D_{sJ}(3040)$ could be identified…
A vector meson exchange model based on effective Lagrangians is used to build the meson--baryon interaction in the charm $+1$, strangeness $-2$ and isospin $0$ sector. The s-wave scattering amplitudes resulting from the unitarization in…
We present a study of the low-lying $\Xi_{c/b}$ and $\Xi'_{c/b}$ baryon states based on masses, strong and radiative decays. In a harmonic oscillator quark model analysis it is found that the majority of the detected states can be…
We study the dependence on the quark mass of the compositeness of the lowest-lying odd parity hyperon states. Thus, we pay attention to $\Lambda-$like states in the strange, charm and beauty, sectors which are dynamically generated using a…
Using new experimental data on photoproduction and $\Lambda_b^0$ decays, we derive constraints on the properties of the LHCb $P_c$ states. We conclude that $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4440)$ can be described as $\Sigma_c\bar D$,…
Stimulated by the observation of a new structure, named $\Lambda_{c}(2910)$, in the $\Sigma_{c}(2455)^{0,++}\pi^{+,-}$ decay channel from B meson decay process by the Belle Collaboration, and the similarity of the…
There are two apparent puzzles connected with the two-body and three-body doubly charmed baryonic B decays. First, earlier calculations based on QCD sum rules or the diquark model predict $Br(\bar B^0\to\Xi_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-)\approx…
Recently LHCb reported the discovery of four extremely narrow excited $\Omega_b$ baryons decaying into $\Xi_b^0 K^-$. We interpret these baryons as bound states of a $b$-quark and a $P$-wave $ss$-diquark. For such a system there are exactly…
The gross features of the observed baryon excitation spectrum below 2 GeV are well explained if the spectrum generating algebra of its intrinsic orbital angular momentum states is o(4)*su(2)_I. The spins of the resonances are obtained…
