We have investigated $\Omega_c$ states that are dynamically generated from the meson-baryon interaction. We use an extension of the local hidden gauge to obtain the interaction from the exchange of vector mesons. We show that the dominant…
Using the resonating group method (RGM), we dynamically study the baryon-meson interactions in chiral quark model. Some interesting results are obtained: (1) The Sigma K state has an attractive interaction, which consequently results in a…
Charmed meson resonances with quantum numbers J^P=0^+ and J^P=1^+ are generated in terms of chiral coupled-channel dynamics. At leading order in the chiral expansion a parameter-free prediction is obtained for the scattering of Goldstone…
We present a theoretical analysis of the process $\Lambda_c^+ \to p\bar{K}^0 \pi^0$ within the chiral unitary approach, with particular emphasis on the dynamically generated $N(1535)$ resonance. In addition to $N(1535)$, our model…

Approximate heavy-quark spin and flavor symmetry and chiral symmetry play an important role in our understanding of the nonperturbative regime of strong interactions. In this work, utilizing the unitarized chiral perturbation theory, we…
We perform a study of the final state interactions of the K^+ \bar{K^0} and the \bar{K^0}d systems in the reactions pp \to d K^+ \bar{K^0} and pp \to d \pi^+ \eta. Since the two-meson system couples strongly to the a_0(980) resonance, these…
We study the $N \bar D$ system by means of a chiral constituent quark model. This model, tuned in the description of the baryon and meson spectra as well as the $NN$ interaction, provides parameter-free predictions for the charm -1…

We study meson resonances with quantum numbers J^P=1^+ in terms of the chiral SU(3) Lagrangian. At leading order a parameter-free prediction is obtained for the scattering of Goldstone bosons off vector mesons with J^P=1^- once we insist on…
This work investigates dynamically generated hidden-charm baryon resonances arising from meson-baryon interactions. Using the local hidden gauge formalism, we model the interaction via t-channel vector meson exchange and unitarize the…
A meson-baryon interaction in the charm $+1$, strangeness $-2$ and isospin $0$ sector is built from a t-channel vector meson exchange model employing effective Lagrangians. The implementation of coupled-channel unitarization in the s-wave…
In this presentation I explain our framework for dynamically generating resonances from the meson meson interaction. Our model generates many poles in the T-matrix which are associated with known states, while at the same time new states…
We employed the chiral unitarity approach to investigate the decay process $\Xi_c^+ \to \Sigma^+K^+K^-$, by considering that the low lying nucleon resonance $\Xi(1/2^-)$ and the low lying scalar meson $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ that could be…
The resonating group method (RGM) is widely used to investigate baryon-baryon interactions at the quark level, typically under the assumption that the two baryons involved share an identical harmonic-oscillator frequency. In reality,…
By looking at the pseudoscalar-vector meson spectra in the $\bar{B}\to J/\psi \rho\bar{K}$ and $\bar{B}\to J/\psi \bar{K}^*\pi$ weak decays, we theoretically investigate the double-pole structure of the $K_1(1270)$ resonance by using the…
A generalized Lagrangian for the description of hadronic matter based on the linear $SU(3)_L \times SU(3)_R$ $\sigma$-model is proposed. Besides the baryon octet, the spin-0 and spin-1 nonets, a gluon condensate associated with broken scale…
Identifying a zero-range exchange of vector mesons as the driving force for the s-wave scattering of pseudo-scalar mesons off the baryon ground states, a rich spectrum of hadronic nuclei is formed. We argue that chiral symmetry and…
A new tool which combines chiral perturbation theory and unitarity in coupled channels is applied with success to the study of the meson-meson interaction, extending the theoretical predictions up to sqrt{s} = 1.2 GeV, hence improving…
Enormous progress in physics enriched our knowledge about the particles which build matter. Among them there are mesons, to which this thesis is entirely devoted. The overwhelming majority of mesons is made of `conventional' $q\bar{q}$…
