Using the data sample of 980 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider, we present the results of an investigation of the $\Lambda\pi^+$ and $\Lambda\pi^-$ invariant mass…
A resonance-like structure in the $\pi^\pm \psi(2S)$ mass spectrum arising in $B \to K \pi^\pm \psi(2S)$ has recently been reported. It is noted that the mass of this structure, $4433 \pm 4 \pm 1$ MeV, is not far from the threshold for…
The Z^+(4430) observed by Belle is explained naturally as a threshold cusp in the D*(2010)Dbar_1(2420) system.
The mechanism by which a threshold may capture a resonance is examined. It involves a threshold cusp interfering constructively with either or both (i) a resonance produced via confinement, (ii) attractive t- and u-channel exchanges. The…
BES II data for J/Psi->K*(890)Kpi reveal a strong kappa peak in the Kpi S-wave near threshold. Both magnitude and phase are determined in slices of Kpi mass by interferences with strong Ko(1430), K1(1270) and K1(1400) signals. The phase…
The spectrum of hadrons is the manifestation of color confinement of quantum chromodynamics. Hadronic resonances correspond to poles of the S-matrix. Since 2003, lots of new hadron resonant structures were discovered in the mass regions…
In this paper, we study the structure around the $p\bar{p}$ threshold that appears in $\eta'\pi^+\pi^-$, $3(\pi^+\pi^-)$ and $K_S^0K_S^0\eta$ invariant mass spectra in the processes of relevant $J/\psi$ radiative decays. The $N\bar{N}$…
Differential cross sections and photon-beam asymmetries for the gamma p -> K+ Lambda(1520) reaction have been measured with linearly polarized photon beams at energies from the threshold to 2.4 GeV at 0.6<cos(theta)<1. A new bump structure…
Understanding the nature of the hidden charm pentaquark(like) signals in the LHCb data for $\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi p K^-$ is a central problem of hadron spectroscopy. We propose a scenario completely different from previous ones such as…
Recently, the Belle and LHCb Collaborations have measured the $\Lambda^+_c \to p K^- \pi^+$ decay and reported the $p K^-$ invariant mass distribution, which shows a clear cusp structure around the $\eta \Lambda$ threshold. In this work, we…
We study the decay of $\Lambda_b\to J/\psi\Lambda\phi$ by taking into account the intermediate resonances $X(4140)$, $X(4160)$, and $P_{cs}(4459)$. In addition to the peak of the $X(4140)$, we also find a bump structure around 4160 MeV…
We discuss the isospin-breaking effects on threshold cusp structures in multichannel scattering near two-body thresholds. In hadronic systems with isospin symmetry, two or more nearly degenerate thresholds can appear, and their small…
Distinctive patterns are predicted by quenched quark models and unquenched quark models for the lowest SU(3) baryon nonet with spin parity $J^P=1/2^-$. While the quenched quark models predict the lowest $1/2^-$ $\Sigma^*$ resonance to be…
Data on the beam asymmetry $\Sigma$ in the photoproduction of $\eta$ mesons off protons are reported for tagged photon energies from 1130 to 1790 MeV (mass range from $W=$ 1748 MeV to $W=$ 2045 MeV). The data cover the full solid angle that…
The LHCb data on $B^+\to J/\psi\phi K^+$ show four peaks and three dips in the $J/\psi\phi$ invariant mass distribution, and the peaks are interpreted as $X(4140)$, $X(4274)$, $X(4500)$ and $X(4685)/X(4700)$ resonance contributions.…
We study the process $J/\Psi \to \gamma \phi \omega$, measured by the BES experiment, where a neat peak close to the $\phi \omega$ threshold is observed and is associated to a scalar meson resonance around 1800 MeV. We make the observation…
Recent LHCb's amplitude analysis on $B^+\to J/\psi \phi K^+$ suggests the existence of exotic $X$ and $Z_{cs}$ hadrons, based on an assumption that Breit-Wigner resonances describe all the peak structures. However, all the peaks and also…
We investigate the process $B\to \bar{D}D_s \pi$ via several rescattering processes. It is shown that the triangle singularity (TS) peak around the $D^*K^*$ threshold generated from the $\chi_{c1}K^* D^*$ loop is relatively narrow, which…
The near-threshold behavior of the ppbar invariant mass spectrum from the J/psi -> omega ppbar decay reported recently by the BES Collaboration is analyzed. Contrary to the statement made by the BES Collaboration itself our study…
We investigate the $B^+\to J/\psi \phi K^+$ decay via various rescattering diagrams. Without introducing genuine exotic resonances, it is shown that the $Z_{cs}(4000)$, $Z_{cs}(4220)$ and $X(4700)$ reported by the LHCb collaboration can be…
