Our current knowledge of the baryon--baryon interaction suggests that the dineutron $(n,n)$ and its strange analogue $(n,\Lambda)$ are unstable. In contrast, the situation is more favorable for the strange three-body system $(n,n,\Lambda)$,…
Heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) are hypothetical particles proposed as a potential explanation for neutrino oscillations and the generation of the baryon asymmetry in the Universe. This paper focuses on HNLs with masses significantly above the…
We extend the recently developed Jacobi no-core shell model to hypernuclei. Based on the coefficients of fractional parentage for ordinary nuclei, we define a basis where the hyperon is the spectator particle. We then formulate transition…
The chiral soliton approach (CSA) provides predictions of the rich spectrum of baryonic states with different values of strangeness for any baryon number B. In the sector with B=1 the well known octet and decuplet of baryons are described…
The QCD sum rule is applied to the H dibaryon and is compared to the flavor non-singlet di-nucleon. We find that the H dibaryon is almost degenerate to the di-nucleon in the $SU(3)_{flavor}$ limit and therefore is not deeply bound as far as…
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…
We use a unitary coupled-channel model to study the $\bar{D} \Lambda_c - \bar{D} \Sigma_c$ interactions. In our calculation, SU(3) flavor symmetry is applied to determine the coupling constants. Several resonant and bound states with…
We investigate the properties of the single Lambda hypernuclei within a Skyrme-Hartree-Fock (SHF) model. The parameters of the Skyrme type effective lambda-nucleon (Lambda N) interaction are obtained by fitting to the experimental Lambda…
In a recent experiment E906 at the BNL-AGS, a search for light S=-2 hypernuclei, strong evidence was found for the nuclide Hydrogen-4 double Lambda. One of the most striking components of this data was the appearance of a narrow…
Light hypernuclei with an $\alpha$ cluster substructure of the core nucleus are studied using an accurate cluster approach (the Hyper-THSR wave function) in combination with a density-dependent $\Lambda$ hyperon-nuclear interaction derived…
We investigate the existence of bound $\Xi$ \break states in systems with $A=4-7$ baryons using the Jacobi NCSM approach in combination with chiral NN and $\Xi$N interactions. We find three shallow bound states for the NNN$\Xi$ system (with…
We investigate the mass spectra of molecular-type hexaquark states in the dibaryon systems. These systems are composed of the charmed baryons $[\Sigma_c^{(\ast)}$, $\Xi_c^{(\prime,\ast)}]$, doubly charmed baryons $[\Xi_{cc}^{(\ast)}]$, and…
Pairing correlations play a very important role in atomic nuclei. Although several effective pairing interactions have been used in mean field calculations for nucleons, little is known about effective pairing interactions for hyperons.…
The dynamics of multiquark binding is revisited in the light of the recent experimental results. It is emphasized that some configurations mixing light and heavy flavours are among the most favourable for stable or metastable multiquarks.…
We explore the systematics of ground-state and excitation energies in singly-strange hypernuclei throughout the helium and lithium isotopic chains --- from $^5_\Lambda$He to $^{11}_\Lambda$He and from $^7_\Lambda$Li to $^{12}_\Lambda$Li ---…
We study the two-baryon system with two units of charm looking for the possible existence of a loosely bound state resembling the $H$ dibaryon. We make use of a chiral constituent quark model tuned in the description of the baryon and meson…
A diquark model previously formulated to describe exotic mesons is extended to dibaryons. In the model, dibaryons containing only light quarks are unbound. The $H$ dibaryon, consisting of $uuddss$ quarks, is unstable by about 90 MeV or…
Many Standard Model extensions predict doubly-charged scalars; in particular, all models with resonances in charged lepton-pair channels with non-vanishing lepton number; if these are pair produced at the LHC, the observation of their decay…
A number of candidate multiquark hadrons, i.e., particle resonances with substructures that are more complex than the quark-antiquark mesons and three-quark baryons that are prescribed in the textbooks, have recently been observed. In this…
It is shown that hyperspherical harmonics can be represented in a form typical of traditional microscopic cluster models. This allows those hyperharmonics that are responsible for long-range behaviour of valence nucleons in loosely-bound…
