We construct QCD sum rules for the anti-charmed pentaquark $\Theta_c (3099)$, recently reported at HERA. The sum rules are constructed similarly with the $\Theta^+ (1540)$ sum rules using the anti-charmed analogue of the $\Theta^+$…
The earlier search at HERMES for narrow baryon states excited in quasi-real photoproduction, decaying through the channel $pK_S^0\rightarrow p\pi^+\pi^-$, has been extended with improved decay-particle reconstruction, more advanced particle…
We analyze charm meson semileptonic decays using the measured ratios $\Gamma_L/\Gamma_T$ and $\Gamma_{+}/\Gamma_{-}$ from $D\to {\bar K}^{*}$ and the branching ratios for $D \to {\bar K}^{*}$ and $D \to {\bar K}$. First we introduce the…
We study strong decays of the $\phi(2170)$, along with its possible partner $X(2436)$, as two fully-strange tetraquark states of $J^{PC} = 1^{--}$. We consider seven decay channels: $\phi \eta$, $\phi \eta^\prime$, $\phi f_0(980)$, $\phi…
In the large $N_c$ limit both heavy and light baryons are described by the universal mean field, which allows us to relate the properties of heavy baryons to light ones. With the only input from the decays of light octet baryons (due to the…
In this article, we choose the $[sc]_P[\bar{s}\bar{c}]_A-[sc]_A[\bar{s}\bar{c}]_P$ type tetraquark current to study the hadronic coupling constants in the strong decays $Y(4660)\to J/\psi f_0(980)$, $\eta_c \phi(1020)$,…
According to QCD, there exists a broken dynamical supersymmetry between an antiquark and a diquark. This supersymmetry can be used to relate the mass of a pentaquark to the mass of an antibaryon by replacing two antiquarks in an antibaryon…
We analyze the fine structure and ``fall-apart'' decay patterns of hidden-strangeness tetraquarks within the dynamical diquark model. Several well-established negative-parity resonances listed by the Particle Data Group (PDG) [$\phi(2170)$,…
We present a search for a pentaquark decaying strongly to $pK_S^0$ in $\gamma N$ collisions at a center-of-mass energy up to 25 GeV/$c^2$. Finding no evidence for such a state in the mass range of 1470 MeV/$c^2$ to 2200 MeV/$c^2$, we set…
There has been important experimental progress in the sector of heavy baryons in the past several years. We study the strong decays of the S-wave, P-wave, D-wave and radially excited charmed baryons using the $^3P_0$ model. After comparing…
As a continuation of our previous work, we investigate the weak decays of doubly-heavy baryons $\Xi_{QQ^{\prime}}$ into sextet $\Sigma_{Q^{\prime}}$ with light-cone sum rules. We calculate the form factors for these decays with the parallel…
We explore the consequences of heavy flavour, heavy quark spin and heavy antiquark-diquark symmetries for hadronic molecules within an effective field theory framework.. Owing to heavy antiquark-diquark symmetry, the doubly heavy baryons…
Motivated by the discovery of several charm states exhibiting tetraquark-like characteristics at BESIII and LHCb, this study investigates the spectroscopy and decay properties of D mesons and tetraquark states with quark content…
The decay behavior of an exotic state can be used to probe its internal structure. We note that the hidden-charm pentaquark states, $P_{\psi}^{N}(4312)$, $P_{\psi}^{N}(4440)$, and $P_{\psi}^{N}(4457)$, have only been observed in the $J/\psi…
The newly observed $\Theta^+$ resonance is believed to be a pentaquark with the constituent quarks $uudd\bar s$. There are a few options for the constituent quark structure. Some advocate diquark-diquark-antiquark $(ud)$-$(ud)$-$\bar s$…
In this work, we investigate the weak decays of ground-state triply heavy baryons. We first obtain the form factors using the light-front quark model in the three-quark picture, and then apply them to arrive at some phenomenological…
In this work, we preform a systematic study of the strong decays for the higher singly heavy baryon resonances $\Lambda_Q(3S)$, $\Lambda_Q(2P)$, $\Lambda_Q(2D)$, $\Lambda_Q(1F)$, $\Sigma_Q(3S)$, $\Sigma_Q(2P)$, $\Sigma_Q(2D)$, and…
We study the hadronic coupling constants in the two-body strong decays of the fully-charm tetraquark states with the $J^{PC}=0^{++}$, $1^{+-}$ and $2^{++}$ via the QCD sum rules based on rigorous quark-hadron duality. Then we obtain the…
We have investigated negative-parity uudd\bar{s} pentaquarks by employing a quark model with the meson exchange and the effective gluon exchange as qq and q\bar{q} interactions. The system for the five quarks is dynamically solved; the…
We assume that the two hidden charm pentaquark discovered at $LHCb$ are built by the three light quarks and the $c \bar{c}$ pair, both colour octets. in relative P-wave for the $\frac{5}{2}^+$ state and by the eigenvectors of the…
