The recent observation and measurement of the decay $Z_c(3900) \to \rho \eta_c$ provides the data on the relative strength of the pion and $\rho$ coupling in the corresponding transitions between exotic resonances and pure heavy quarkonium.…
This paper provides results for the spectra of triply charmed and bottom baryons based on a constituent quark model approach. We take advantage of the assumption that potential models are expected to describe triply heavy baryons to a…
Using the bound state version of the topological soliton model for the baryons we show that the existence of a bound (or quasi-bound) $\bar D$-soliton state leads to the possibility of having hidden charm pentaquarks with quantum numbers…
Proton-proton collisions are considered to find favourable conditions for searching for the transition of a baryon pair state to a hexa-quark confinement state $(3q)+(3q)\rightarrow(6q)_\mathrm{cnf}$. It is admitted that central $pp$…
During the past year many interesting results were published in heavy quark baryon spectroscopy. In addition to several refined measurements, new states were directly observed both in the charm and the bottom sector. In this paper we review…
In this work, we investigate the strong decays for $P-$wave excited states of doubly charmed and bottom baryons in the constituent quark model. Our results indicate that some $\lambda-$mode $\Xi_{cc/bb}(1P)$ and $\Omega_{cc/bb}(1P)$ states…
Using the Regge-like formula $(M-m_Q)^2=\pi\sigma L$ between hadron mass $M$ and angular momentum $L$ with a heavy quark mass $m_Q$ and a string tension $\sigma$, we analyze all the heavy-light systems, i.e., $D/D_s/B/B_s$ mesons and…
The experimental observations that led to the quark structure of matter and the development of hadron physics are reviewed with emphasis on the discoveries of mesons and baryons, starting in the 1940s with the pion and kaon which mediate…
We investigate the kinematically allowed baryon to baryon-meson strong transitions in all the light and heavy sectors. We consider only the ground state on-shell particles in the baryonic and mesonic channels. In the case of mesons, only…
We evaluate a hadronic molecule formed by a heavy meson and a nucleon respecting heavy quark symmetry. The tensor force of pion exchange potential plays a dominate role to produce an strong attraction in this system. Solving coupled channel…
We review in this paper a series of recent works on properties of singly heavy baryons, based on a pion mean-field approach. In the limit of an infinitely heavy-quark mass, the heavy quark inside a heavy baryon can be regarded as a static…
New results on baryon structure and spectrum developed in collaboration with Dan Riska [1-4] are reported. The main idea is that beyond the chiral symmetry spontaneous breaking scale light and strange baryons should be considered as systems…
We test the sensitivity of bottom baryon observables with regard to the choice of the interpolating three-quark currents within the relativistic three-quark model. We have found that the semileptonic decay rates are clearly affected by the…
The two heavy quarks in a baryon which contains two heavy quarks and a light one, can constitute a scalar or axial vector diquark. We study electromagnetic radiations of such baryons, (i) \Xi_{(bc)_1} -> \Xi_{(bc)_0}+\gamma, (ii)…
We present a new perspective on thermal and quantum phase transitions (QPT) in $(2+1)$-dimensional quantum chromodynamics based on symmetries, topology, and quantum dynamical structure of the baryon ground state in the large $N_c$ limit for…
In light of the developments of the chiral constituent quark model ($\chi$CQM) in studying low energy hadronic matrix elements of the ground-state baryons, we have extended this model to investigate their transition properties. The magnetic…
We have systematically investigated the spin-$\frac{3}{2}$ to spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ doubly charmed baryon transition magnetic moments to the next-to-next-to-leading order in the heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory (HBChPT). Numerical…
The couplings and interactions of baryons containing a heavy quark are related by light quark spin-flavor symmetry in the large $N$ limit. The single pion coupling constant which determines all heavy quark baryon-pion couplings is equal to…
A longitudinal transition operator that satisfies the gauge invariance requirement is introduced in constituent quark model. The corresponding longitudinal transitions between the nucleon and baryon resonances are calculated. We show that…
We construct a leading-order effective field theory for both scalar and axial-vector heavy diquarks, and consider its power expansion in the heavy diquark limit. By assuming the transition from QCD to diquark effective theory, we derive the…
