We study the feasibility of having the $\Sigma^*(1430)$ state, predicted within the chiral unitary approach and recently reported by the Belle Collaboration, as corresponding to a state of non-molecular nature. Starting from this…
We present here some results supporting the nature of the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance as dynamically generated from the meson baryon interaction in coupled channels and resulting from the superposition of two close-by poles. We find support…
The $K^- p \to \pi^0 \pi^0 \Sigma^0$ reaction is studied within a chiral unitary model. The distribution of $\pi^0 \Sigma^0$ states forming the $\Lambda(1405)$ shows, in agreement with a recent experiment, a peak at 1420 MeV and a…
We study the decay mode of the $a_1(1260)$ into a $\pi^+$ in p-wave and the $f_0(980)$ that decays into $\pi^+ \pi^-$ in s-wave. The mechanisms proceeds via a triangular mechanism where the $a_1(1260)$ decays into $K^* \bar K$, the $K^*$…
Based on Belle data, the structure around 1435 MeV and the role of the $\Sigma(1380)$ resonance in the decay process $\Lambda_c \to \Lambda \pi^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ are investigated. The $\Lambda \pi^\pm$ invariant mass spectra are approximately…
A $\Sigma^*$ state with spin-parity $J^P = 1/2^-$ with mass and width around $1380$ MeV and $120$ MeV, refereed to as the $\Sigma^*_{1/2^-}(1380)$, has been predicted in several pentaquark models and inferred from the analysis of CLAS…
We present a theoretical analysis of the process $\Lambda_c^+ \to p\bar{K}^0 \pi^0$ within the chiral unitary approach, with particular emphasis on the dynamically generated $N(1535)$ resonance. In addition to $N(1535)$, our model…
The $\Lambda p \to \Lambda p \pi^0$ reaction near threshold is studied within an effective Lagrangian method. The production process is described by single-pion and single-kaon exchange. In addition to the role played by the…
The singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $\Lambda_{c}^{+} \to n\pi^{+}$ is observed for the first time with a statistical significance of $7.3\sigma$ by using 3.9 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data collected at center-of-mass…
We report measurements of the branching fractions of the decays $\Lambda^+_c\to\Sigma^+\pi^-\pi^+$, $\Lambda^+_c\to\Sigma^0\pi^+\pi^0$ and $\Lambda^+_c\to\Sigma^+\pi^0\pi^0$ relative to the reference channel $\Lambda^+_c\to pK^-\pi^+$. The…
We present a model for the $J/\psi\Lambda$ spectrum in $B^-\to J/\psi \Lambda \bar{p}$ decays, including the $P_{\psi s}^\Lambda(4338)$ baryon recently observed by the LHCb collaboration. We assume production via triangle diagrams which…
We investigate the photoproduction of $K^*$ vector meson for the study of the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance. The invariant mass distribution of $\pi\Sigma$ shows a different shape from the nominal one, peaking at 1420 MeV. This is considered as…

Recent studies within the framework of chiral unitary theory produce the $\Lambda (1520)$ resonance, among several others, as a dynamically generated resonance from the interaction of the baryon decuplet and the meson octet. The $\Lambda…

We study the $\bar K p \to Y K\bar K \pi$ reactions with $\bar K = \bar K^0, K^-$ and $Y=\Sigma^0, \Sigma^+, \Lambda$, in the region of $K\bar K \pi$ invariant masses of $1200-1550$ MeV. The strong coupling of the $f_1(1285)$ resonance to…
The possible role of the triangle mechanism in the $B^-$ decay into $D^{*0}\pi^-\pi^0\eta$ and $D^{*0}\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$ is investigated. In this process, the triangle singularity appears from the decay of $B^-$ into $D^{*0}K^-K^{*0}$…

We analyze the mixing between $\Sigma^0$ and $\Lambda^0$ based on the baryon masses. We distinguish the contributions from QCD and QED in the baryon mass splittings. We find that the mixing angle between $\Sigma^0$ and $\Lambda^0$ is…
We propose to study the $a_0(980)$ and the $\Lambda(1670)$ resonances in the $\Lambda^+_c \to \pi^+ \eta \Lambda$ decay via the final state interactions of the $\pi^+ \eta$ and $\eta \Lambda$ pairs. The weak interaction part proceeds…
