We present measurements of the transverse momentum spectra for K0s, Lambda, Xi and their antiparticles in p+p collisions at $\sqrt{s}=200$ GeV. The extracted mid-rapidity yields and <pT> are in agreement with previous $p+\bar{p}$…

The single-neutron transfer reaction $^{19}$O(d,p$\gamma$)$^{20}$O has been performed at GANIL, populating states up to and above the neutron separation energy. Bound states populated by s-wave and d-wave transfer have been observed with…

We generalize the dynamical-mean field (DMFT) approximation by including into the DMFT equations some length scale via a (momentum dependent) ``external'' self-energy \Sigma_k. This external self-energy describes non-local dynamical…

We report on searches in deep inelastic $ep$ scattering for narrow baryonic states decaying into $\Xi^-\pi^-, \Xi^-\pi^+, \KS p$ and their charge conjugates, at centre-of-mass energies of 300 and 318 GeV. No signal for a new narrow baryonic…

A recent measurement of the total $D^{*+}$ width, $\Gamma_{\rm tot}(D^{*+}) = (83.3 \pm 1.3 \pm 1.4)$ keV, is shown to be close to earlier predictions based on the single-quark-transition hypothesis. Those predictions are updated using more…

Details of the analysis of the eta pi- system studied in the reaction pi^{-} p --> eta pi^{-} p at 18 GeV/c are given. Separate analyses for the 2 gamma and pi+ pi- pi0 decay modes of the eta are presented. An amplitude analysis of the data…

In an exclusive measurement of the reaction $\gamma d \to K^+ K^- p n$, a narrow peak that can be attributed to an exotic baryon with strangeness $S=+1$ is seen in the $K^+n$ invariant mass spectrum. The peak is at $1.542\pm 0.005$…

We implement a convolutional neural network to study the $\Sigma$ hyperons using experimental data of the $K^-p\to\pi^0\Lambda$ reaction. The averaged accuracy of the NN models in resolving resonances on the test data sets is ${\rm…

Exotic mesons are striking predictions of quantum chromodynamics that go beyond the quark model. They can provide great insight into understanding phenomena such as asymptotic freedom, confinement, and dynamical symmetry breaking. This work…

The structure of dynamically generated states is studied from a viewpoint of the finite volume effect. We establish the relation between the spatial size of a stable bound state and the finite volume mass shift. In a single-channel…

By comparing two expressions for the polarization function given in terms of two different local-field factors, G_+(q,iw) and G_s(q,iw), we have derived the kinetic-energy-fluctuation (or sixth-power) sum rule for the momentum distribution…

We have observed a signal for the decay D*+ -> D+ gamma at a significance of 4 standard deviations. From the measured branching ratio B(D*+ -> D+ gamma)/B(D*+ -> D+ pi0)=0.055 +- 0.014 +- 0.010 we find B(D*+ -> D+ gamma)= 0.017 +- 0.004 +-…

We look for fluctuations expected for the QCD critical point using an intermittency analysis in the transverse momentum phase space of protons produced around midrapidity in the 12.5\% most central C+C, Si+Si and Pb+Pb collisions at the…

We perform a unitary coupled channel study of the interaction of the $D^{*+} D^0, D^{*0} D^+$ channels and find a state barely bound, very close to isospin $I=0$. We take the experimental mass as input and obtain the width of the state and…

Several instabilities competing with the d-wave singlet pairing were proposed for high-Tc cuprates. One of them is the d-wave Fermi surface deformation (dFSD), which is generated by forward scattering. In this paper, correlation functions…

In this manuscript we study the vector - vector interaction within the hidden gauge formalism in a coupled channel unitary approach. In the sector $C=1,S=1,J=2$ we get a pole in the T-matrix around $2572$ MeV that we identify with the…
