We study the pentaquark $uudd\bar s$ with $J=3/2$ and I=1 ($\Theta^{++}$) in the QCD sum rule approach. We derive the QCD sum rules for positive and negative parity states of the pentaquark. The QCD sum rule predicts that there exists…
The possible existence of nucleon-antinucleon bound states has been studied for decades. We investigate the $e^+e^-\to p\bar{p}$ and $e^+e^-\to n\bar{n}$ cross sections in the nonrelativistic effective field theory framework. The…
The exotic baryon $\Theta^+(uudd\bar{s})$ is studied with microscopic calculations in a quark model by using a method of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. We predict that the lowest even state is $J^\pi=1/2^+(I=0)$ or $J^\pi=3/2^+(I=0)$,…
Motivated by the recent work on the calculation of the $\pi NN$ coupling constant using QCD sum rule beyond the chiral limit, we construct the corresponding sum rules for the couplings, $\eta NN$, $\pi \Xi\Xi$, $\eta \Xi\Xi$, $\pi \Sigma…
The results on e+e- --> W+W- --> 4f(+gamma) obtained by different groups are compared with each other. Differences in the results for the total cross section of up to about 0.6% are traced back to different ways of implementing the…
The interaction of spatially extended heavy baryons is investigated in the framework of lattice QCD with dynamical quarks. It is shown that the expected dipole forces have a very short range and that the baryon-antibaryon interaction is…
We calculate the branching ratio of $\bar{B}^0 \to \Lambda_c^+ \bar{p}$ in the PQCD approach. Most previous model calculations obtained branching ratios significantly larger than experimental data. We find that the predicted branching ratio…

In the most recent measurements of the reaction $e^+e^- \rightarrow p\bar{p}$ by the BABAR collaboration, new structures have been found with unknown origin. We examine a possible relation of the most distinct peak to the recently observed…
We use the Paris nucleon-antinucleon optical potential for explanation of experimental data in the process $e^+e^- \to p\bar p$ near threshold. It is shown that the cross section and the electromagnetic form factors are very sensitive to…
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…
The reactions ppbar -> e+e- and e+e- -> ppbar are analyzed in the near-threshold region. Specific emphasis is put on the role played by the interaction in the initial- or final antinucleon-nucleon state which is taken into account…
We calculate the pressure (p), the energy density (\epsilon) and the baryon density (n_B) of QCD at finite temperatures (T) and chemical potentials (\mu). The recently proposed overlap improving multi-parameter reweighting technique is used…
The production of the Sigma+ hyperon through the pp->K+nSigma+ reaction has been investigated at four energies close to threshold, 1.826, 1.920, 1.958, and 2.020 GeV. At low energies, correlated K+pi+ pairs can only originate from Sigma+…
We investigate the isovector axial vector and pseudoscalar form factors of $\Delta$ baryon by employing light-cone QCD sum rules. Numerical calculations show that the form factors can be well fitted by the exponential form. We make a…

Evidence has been accumulating for the existence of significant intrinsic non-perturbative five-quark components in various baryons. The inclusion of the five-quark components gives a natural explanation of the excess of $\bar d$ over $\bar…
In this thesis we describe the calculation of the process e+ e- --> Z/gamma -> Q Qbar + X, where Q is a heavy quark, X is anything else at order alpha_s^2.
