We study the reactions $J/\psi\to\bar{\Lambda}K^-p$ and $J/\psi\to\bar{\Lambda}\pi^+\pi^-\Lambda$ with a unitary chiral approach. We predict the ratio of the invariant mass distributions of these two reactions at the $\Lambda(1520)$ peak…
We have studied the interaction of $\pi^0 (\eta) f_1(1285)$ assuming the $f_1(1285)$ to be a molecular state of $K^* \bar K - \bar K^* K$. We use a framework in which a $\pi^0 (\eta) f_1(1285)$ optical potential is obtained, which is later…
We report on recent progress on the chiral unitary approach, analogous to the effective range expansion in Quantum Mechanics, which is shown to have a much larger convergence radius than ordinary chiral perturbation theory, allowing one to…
We extend the analysis of elastic pion-nucleon scattering up to $O(p^4)$ level using extended-on-mass-shell subtraction scheme within the framework of covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory. Numerical fits to partial wave phase shift…
On-shell kaon-nucleon scattering, kaonic atom and kaon condensation are treated on the same footing by means of a chiral perturbation expansion to the next-to-next-to-leading order (``N$^2$LO"). Constraining the low-energy constants in the…
We use a nonperturbative approach which combines coupled channel Lippmann Schwinger equations with meson-meson potentials provided by the lowest order chiral Lagrangians. By means of one parameter, a cut off in the momentum of the loop…
We study the scattering of open-beauty mesons and Goldstone bosons as predicted by the chiral SU(3) Lagrangian. The impact of subleading order chiral interactions to systems with $J^P= 0^+$ and $J^P=1^+$ quantum numbers is worked out. We…
The leading non-Coulombic electromagnetic contributions to pi pi s-wave scattering lengths are computed in Chiral Perturbation Theory. It is shown that these corrections are zeroth order in the chiral expansion and associated with…
We study the scattering of a pseudoscalar meson off one ground state octet baryon in covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory (BChPT) up to the next-to-next-to-leading order. The inherent power counting breaking terms are removed within…
The interaction of Lambda*=Lambda(1405) with a nucleon is studied from the viewpoint of chiral dynamics. We construct the coordinate space Lambda* N potential in the meson-exchange picture, which serves as a fundamental ingredient for the…
We review recent work concerning the $\bar{K}N$ interaction and Faddeev equations with chiral dynamics which allow us to look at the $\bar{K}NN$ from a different perspective and pay attention to problems that have been posed in previous…
This is the contribution to the proceedings of the MENU 2010 conference. The recent work of Ref. [7] is summarized. Elastic piN scattering and the reaction pi^+ p --> K^+ Sigma^+ are described simultaneously in a unitary coupled-channels…
This work implements the combined BChPT and 1/Nc expansions for pion-nucleon elastic scattering. The effective theory is based on the baryon sector dynamical spin-flavor SU(4) symmetry emergent in the large Nc limit, whose breaking is…
The N*(1440) -> N pi pi decay is studied by making use of the chiral reduction formula. This formula suggests a scalar-isoscalar pion-baryon contact interaction which is absent in the recent study of Hern{\'a}ndez et al. The contact…
We show that the interplay of chiral effective field theory and lattice QCD can be used in the evaluation of so-called disconnected diagrams, which appear in the study of the isoscalar and isovector channels of pion-pion scattering and have…
We perform an analysis of Lattice QCD data in the open-charm sector based on the chiral SU(3) Lagrangian. The low-energy constants are adjusted to recover the open-charm meson masses on Lattice QCD ensembles from HPQCD, ETMC and HSC with…
In this work, we investigate the interaction between the $\Omega$ baryon and the $s\bar{s}$ meson within the framework of the quark delocalization color screening model. The spectra calculations show that no bound state is formed in any of…
The $N^*(1535)$ can be dynamically generated in the chiral unitary approach with the coupled channels, $K^0 \Sigma^+, K^+ \Sigma^0, K^+ \Lambda$ and $\eta p$. In this work we evaluate the correlation functions for every channel and face the…
In these lectures I make an introduction to chiral unitary theory applied to the meson baryon interaction and show how several well known resonances are dynamically generated, and others are predicted. Two very recent experiments are…
We investigate photoproduction of $\phi$-mesons off protons within a coupled-channel effective-Lagrangian method which is based on the K-matrix approach. Since the threshold energy of the $K\Lambda(1520)$ channel is close to that of $\phi…
