In this work, we study the possibility to find $N^*_{c\bar{c}}$ and $\Lambda^*_{c\bar{c}}$ resonances with hidden charm with mass above 4 GeV in the photon-induced production. The cross sections for the photoproductions of hidden charmed…
Hadron masses are calculated in quenched lattice QCD with a fermion action of the D234 type on an anisotropic lattice. Hyperfine splittings for singly charmed baryons are found to be in agreement with expectations from the quark model and…
The vast amount of $c\overline{c}$ production that can be recorded by the LHCb detector makes it an ideal environment to study the hadronic production of charmed baryons, along with the properties of their decays. We briefly describe the…
Using data recorded by the CLEO III detector at CESR, we have made measurements of some properties of the Sigma_c^{*++} and Sigma_c^{*0} charmed baryons. In particular: Gamma(Sigma_c^{*++})=14.4^{+1.6}_{-1.5}+-1.4 MeV,…
The high production rate and $\langle x_{F} \rangle > 0.33$ of the doubly charmed baryons measured by the SELEX experiment is not amenable to perturbative QCD analysis. In this paper we calculate the production of the doubly heavy baryons…
Using a large sample of photoproduced charm mesons from the FOCUS experiment at Fermilab (FNAL-E831), we observe the decay $D^0\to K^+\pi^-$ with a signal yield of $149\pm31$ events compared to a similarly cut sample consisting of $36760…
A new charm-strange meson, the $D_{s1}^*(2863)$, has recently been observed by the LHCb collaboration which also determined the $D_{sJ}^*(2860)$ to have spin 3. One of the speculations about the previously observed $D_{s1}^*(2710)$ is that…
The discovery of hadronic states beyond the conventional two-quark meson and three-quark baryon picture in the last two decades is one of the most amazing accomplishments in fundamental physics research. We review the experimental progress…
In this work we study the possible QCD exotic states in the doubly charmed baryon sector. Within chiral effective theory, it is predicted that several excited baryons result from the $S$-wave scattering of ground-state doubly charmed…
We present here recent results on the investigations of the mass spectrum (S-states and P-states), decay constants, decay widths and life time of the D, $D_s$,and $B_c$mesons within the framework of phenomenological potential models.We also…
Using the quark-diquark approximation in the framework of Buchm\" uller-Tye potential model, we investigate the spectroscopy of doubly charmed baryons: $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ and $\Xi_{cc}^{+}$. Our results include the masses, parameters of radial…
We study the production of charmed hadrons $D^{0}$ and $\Lambda_c^+$ in relativistic heavy-ion collisions using an improved quark coalescence model. In particular, we extend the usual coalescence model by letting a produced hadron to have…
We study the spectra of heavy-light and heavy-heavy mesons containing charm quarks, including higher spin states. We use two sets of $N_f = 2 + 1$ gauge configurations, one set from QCDSF using the SLiNC action, and the other configurations…
A selected survey is presented of the recent progress in hadron spectroscopy. This includes spin-singlet charmonium states, excitations of charmonium and open-charm mesons, double-charm baryons, and pentaquark candidates. Models proposing…
Experimental measurements of different decays of charmed mesons have been extensively performed at BESIII. Precision measurements of absolute branching fractions of different decays, the decay constants of $D^+$ and $D^+_s$ mesons, hadronic…
Using 13.7 fb^{-1} of data recorded by the CLEO detector at CESR, we investigate the spectrum of charmed baryons which decay into Lambda_c^+ pi^- pi^+ and are more massive than the Lambda_{c1} baryons. We find evidence for two new states:…
In this paper, we study total and differential observables of electro- and photoproduction of light $\rho$, $\omega$ and $\phi$ mesons as functions of the center-of-mass energy of the $\gamma p$ collision and momentum transfer squared…
Recent studies of charmed baryon spectroscopy, performed by the Belle collaboration, are briefly described. We report the observation of an isotriplet of baryons $\Sigma_c(2800)$ and evidence for two new baryons $\Xi_{cx}(2980)$ and…
The SELEX experiment (E781) is 3-stage magnetic spectrometer for the study of charm hadroproduction at large xF using 600 Gev Sigma-, pi- and p beams. New precise measurements of the Lambda_c, D0, and Ds lifetimes are presented. We also…
We suggest that the recently observed charmed scalar mesons $D_0^{0}(2308)$ (BELLE) and $D_0^{0,+}(2405)$ (FOCUS) are considered as different resonances. Using the QCD sum rule approach we investigate the possible four-quark structure of…
