We utilize existing inclusive data on K^+ meson momentum spectra of the reaction pp -> K^+X at T_p = 2.3 - 2.85 GeV to deduce total cross sections for pp -> K^+\Sigma^+n. The method used to extract those cross sections is explained and…
We present an analysis of $\Xi^-$ baryon production in subthreshold proton--nucleus ($p+A$) collisions in the framework of a BUU type transport model. We propose a new mechanism for $\Xi$ production in the collision of a secondary $\Lambda$…
The hyperon-nucleon interaction is investigated through the final-state interaction in the $K^-d\to\pi^-\Lambda p$ reaction. We focus on the $\Lambda N$-$\Sigma N$ coupled-channel interaction, which produces characteristic structures around…
Complementary to the conventional experimental studies on $N^*$ from $\pi N$ and $\gamma^{(*)}N$ reactions, the $e^+e^-$, $pp$ and $p\bar p$ collisions can give novel insights into these $N^*$ resonances. While the $e^+e^-$ collisions…

We report on a theoretical study of the $\pi^- p \to D^- D^0 p$ reaction near threshold within an effective Lagrangian approach. The production process is described by $t$ channel $D^{*0}$ meson exchange, $s$-channel nucleon pole, and $u$…
The $e^+e^- \to \omega \pi^0 \to \pi^0 \pi^0 \gamma$ process was investigated in the SND experiment at the VEPP-2M collider. A narrow energy interval near the $\phi$-meson was scanned. The observed cross-section reveals, at the level of…
We investigate the yield of $\Lambda(1520)$ resonance in heavy ion collisions within the framework of a kinetic master equation without the assumption of chemical equilibrium. We show that reactions such as $\Lambda(1520)+\pi…
A new high precision measurement of the reaction pp -> pK+Lambda at a beam momentum of 2.95 GeV/c with more than 200,000 analyzed events allows a detailed analysis of differential observables and their inter-dependencies. Correlations of…
The missing mass spectrum measured in high resolution studies of the reaction pp -> K^+X is analyzed with respect to the strong final state interaction near the Lambda p production threshold. The observed spectrum can be described by…
Based on our Faddeev-Yakubowsky calculations of four-body kaonic nuclear systems it was revealed that the structure of K-K-pp is well approximated by two Lambda*=K-p's with strong mutual attraction. It is vitally important to study this…
We have observed a "$K^-pp$"-like structure in the $d(\pi^+,K^+)$ reaction at 1.69 GeV/$c$. In this reaction $\Lambda(1405)$ hyperon resonance is expected to be produced as a doorway to form the $K^-pp$ through the $\Lambda^*p\rightarrow…

The reaction pp->p K0 pi+ Lambda has been studied with the ANKE spectrometer at COSY-Juelich at a beam momentum of 3.65 GeV/c in order to search for a possible signal of the pentaquark Theta+(1540), decaying into the p K0 system. By…
The $\Lambda(1520)$ resonance has been recently studied in a unitarized coupled channel formalism with $\pi\Sigma(1385)$, $K\Xi(1530)$, $\bar{K}N$ and $\pi\Sigma$ as constituents blocks. We provide a theoretical study of the predictions of…
