We report first measurements of the doubly charmed baryonic B decays B->Lambda_c+Lambda_c-K. The B+->Lambda_c+Lambda_c-K+ decay is observed with a branching fraction of (6.5+1.0-0.9+-1.1+-3.4)x10^{-4} and a statistical significance of…
The CLEO-c detector at CESR has begun to collect large data sets of $e^+e^- \to c\bar{c}$ events in the center-of-mass energy range $\sqrt{s}=3 - 5 $GeV that will greatly enhance the size of the world's data sets of events produced at charm…
Using a high statistics sample of photoproduced charmed particles from the FOCUS experiment at Fermilab (FNAL-E831), we measure the mass splittings of the charmed baryons Sigma_c^0 and Sigma_c^{++}. We find M(Sigma_c^0 - Lambda_c^+) =…
In this work, the strong decay behaviors of the $\lambda-$mode low-lying $\Xi_{b}$ and $\Xi_{b}^\prime$ baryons are investigated within the $^3P_0$ model. Our results suggest that all of the low-lying $\bar 3_F$ states $\Xi_b(2S)$,…

Using the entire Belle data sample of 980 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collisions, we present the results of a study of excited $\Omega_c$ charmed baryons in the decay mode $\Xi_c^+K^-$. We show confirmation of four of the five narrow states…
We report the discovery of $\Xi_{c}(3055)^{0}$, observed by its decay into the final state $\Lambda D^{0}$, and present the first observation and evidence of the decays of $\Xi_c(3055)^{+}$ and $\Xi_c(3080)^{+}$ into $\Lambda D^{+}$. We…
Identifying the t-channel exchange of vector mesons as the driving force for the s-wave scattering of pseudo-scalar mesons off the baryon ground states, a surprisingly rich spectrum of molecules is formed. We argue that chiral symmetry and…
We present final measurements of thirteen charmless hadronic B decay modes from the CLEO experiment. The decay modes include the ten pipi, Kpi, and KKbar final states and new limits on dibaryonic final states, ppbar, pLambdabar, and…
We investigate the charmed baryon mass spectrum using the relativistic heavy quark action on 2+1 flavor PACS-CS configurations previously generated on $32^3 \times 64$ lattice. The dynamical up-down and strange quark masses are tuned to…
Using a sample of 2.59 x 10^7$ psi(2S) decays collected by the CLEO--c detector, we present results of a search for the decay chain psi(2S) -> pi^0 h_c, h_c -> n(pi^+ pi^-) pi^0, n=1,2,3. We observe no significant signals for n=1 and n=3…
I present here a selection of preliminary results on charmed hadron decays from BESIII collaboration, including the study of $D^{+}\to K^{-}\pi^{+}e^{+}\nu_{e}$, the measurement of the form factors in $D^{+}\to \omega e^{+}\nu_{e}$ and the…
We evaluate the widths for the strong decays $\Sigma_c\to\Lambda_c \pi$, $\Sigma_c^*\to\Lambda_c \pi$ and $\Xi_c^{*}\to\Xi_c \pi$. The calculations have been done within a nonrelativistic constituent quark model with wave functions that…
By an unquenched quark model, we predict a charmed-strange baryon state, namely, the $\Omega_{c0}^d(1P,1/2^-)$. Its mass is predicted to be 2945 MeV, which is below the $\Xi_c\bar{K}$ threshold due to the nontrivial coupled-channel effect.…
We report the observation of new bottom baryon states. The most recent result is the observation of the baryon \Xi_b^- through the decay \Xi_b^- to J/\psi \Xi^-. The significance of the signal corresponds to 7.7 sigma and the \Xi_b^- mass…
Using the approximate flavor SU(3) symmetry of strong interactions, we argue for the existence of a new Lambda baryon with J^P=3/2^-, the mass around 1850 MeV, the total width of about 130 MeV, significant branching into the Sigma \pi and…
The mass spectrum of the charmed mesons is investigated by considering the coupled channel effects within the nonrelativistic potential model. The predicted masses of the charmed mesons are in agreement with experimental data. The strong…
We calculate the low-lying spectrum of charmed baryons in lattice QCD on the $32^3\times64$, $N_f=2+1$ PACS-CS gauge configurations at the almost physical pion mass of $\sim 156$ MeV/c$^2$. By employing a set of interpolating operators with…
