The extra contributions due to an extra generation of vector-like quarks to the isospin symmetry breaking observable associated with the radiative B->K^* \gamma decay is obtained. It is shown that this additional contribution is sensitive…
We study the semileptonic decays of the lowest-lying $bc$ baryons to the lowest-lying $cc$ baryons ($\Xi_{bc}^{(\prime*)}\to \Xi_{cc}^{(*)}$ and $\Omega_{bc}^{(\prime*)}\to \Omega_{cc}^{(*)}$), in the limit $m_b, m_c \gg…
Applying the QCD sum-rule machinery in the so-called local-duality shape to heavy-light mesons reveals that, as a consequence of the non-zero mass gap between up and down quarks, the leptonic decay constants of the neutral and charged…
We study the branching ratios and up-down asymmetries in the charmed baryon weak decays of ${\bf B}_c\to {\bf B}_DM$ with ${\bf B}_{c(D)}$ anti-triplet charmed (decuplet) baryon and $M$ pseudo-scalar meson states based on the flavor…
Regularities in the hadron interaction energies are used to obtain formulas relating the masses of ground-state hadrons, most of which contain heavy quarks. Inputs are the constituent quark model, the Feynman-Hellmann theorem, and the…
In this work, we investigate the semi-leptonic weak decays of spin-1/2 doubly-heavy baryons $\Xi_{QQ^{\prime}}$ into spin-3/2 singly-heavy baryons $\Sigma_{Q^{\prime}}^*$ within light-cone sum rules. Using the parallel components of the…
I extract the strange-quark mass using a $\tau$-like decay sum rule for the $\phi$-meson, and some other sum rules involving its difference with the vector component of the hadronic $\tau$-decay. As a conservative estimate, one obtains to…
We study the hadronic molecular structure of hidden heavy pentaquarks - new exotic states composed of charmed/bottom baryons and $D(D^*)/B(B^*)$ mesons. Based on the observation of three pentaquark candidates $P_c^+(4312)$, $P_c^+(4440)$,…
We use the method of light-cone sum rules to study decay properties of $P$-wave bottom baryons belonging to the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$ representation. In Ref.~\cite{Cui:2019dzj} we have studied their mass spectrum and pionic decays,…
The weak decay of charmed baryons multiplets into ground state and mesons are investigated using current algebra technique. Some of the interesting results on the partial decays rates and the asymmetry parameters for $\Delta$C=$\Delta$S=-1…
The notion induced symmetry breaking (ISB) is introduced as a generalization of the spontaneous symmetry breaking mechanism and is illustrated in a simple two flavor spin model. In the case of QCD at finite baryon density, I argue that the…
We study baryonic matter with isospin asymmetry, including fully dynamically its interplay with pion condensation. To this end, we employ the holographic Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto model and the so-called homogeneous ansatz for the gauge fields…
We analyze the weak decay of doubly-heavy baryon decays into anti-triplets $\Lambda_Q$ with light-cone sum rules. To calculate the decay form factors, both bottom and charmed anti-triplets $\Lambda_b$ and $\Lambda_c$ are described by the…
The dynamical studies on the non-leptonic weak decays of charmed baryons are always challenging, due to the large non-perturbative contributions at the charm scale. In this work, we develop the final-state rescattering mechanism to study…
Weak SU(3) symmetry is successfully applied to the weak hadronic decay amplitudes of octet hyperons. Weak nonmesonic and mesonic decays of various dibaryons with strangeness, their dominant decay modes, and lifetimes are calculated.…
In the present work, the strong decays of the discovered $P_c(4380)$, $P_c(4440)$, $P_c(4457)$ and their possible isospin cousins are systematically studied via the assignment that they are the meson-baryon molecular states. In detail, the…
In this work, we adopt the $^3P_0$ model to investigate the strong decays of the low-lying doubly bottom baryons in the $j-j$ coupling scheme systematically. In this scheme, we construct the formulism of $^3P_0$ model under the spectator…
The masses of the low lying baryons are evaluated using a total of ten ensembles of dynamical twisted mass fermion gauge configurations. The simulations are performed using two degenerate flavors of light quarks, and a strange and a charm…
The structure of spin and isospin is analyzed. Although both spin and isospin are related to the same SU(2) group, they represent different dynamical effects. The Wigner-Racah algebra is used for providing a description of bound states of…
Interpreting the recently discovered narrow exotic baryons as pentaquark states, we discuss, along an old argument of ours, the isospin mixing occurring within the two doublets of $Q = -1$ and Q=0 states lying inside the $S=-2$…
