High-statistics cross sections for the reactions gamma + p --> K^+ + Lambda and gamma + p --> K^+ + Sigma^0 have been measured using CLAS at Jefferson Lab for center-of-mass energies W between 1.6 and 2.53 GeV, and for -0.85 < cos…
We present an analysis of the newly observed pentaquark $P_c(4312)^+$ to shed light on its quantum numbers. To do that, the QCD sum rule approach is used. The measured mass of this particle is close to $\Sigma_c^{++}\bar{D}^-$ threshold and…
We study the Dalitz plot of the decay D^+ --> K^- pi^+ pi^+ with a sample of 15090 events from Fermilab experiment E791. Modeling the decay amplitude as the coherent sum of known K pi resonances and a uniform nonresonant term, we do not…
A quark model, which reproduces the ground-state mesons and baryons, i.e., the threshold energies, is applied to the $qqqc\bar c$ configurations, where $q$ is a light quark and~$c$ the charmed quark. In the calculation, several open…
We investigate the structure $X(4630)$ discovered by the LHCb collaboration in the process $B^{+}\rightarrow J/\psi \phi K^{+}$ as a resonance in the $ J/\psi \phi $ mass distribution. We explore this resonance as a diquark-antidiquark…
We present a calculation of the $\gamma d \to K^+ K^- n p $ reaction with the aim of seeing if the experimental peak observed in the $K^+ n$ invariant mass around 1526 MeV, from where evidence for the existence of the $\Theta^+$ has been…
The broad $1^{--}$ resonant structure around 1.5GeV observed in the $K^+ K^-$ mass spectrum in $J/\psi\to K^+ K^-\pi^0$ by BESII is interpreted as a composition of $\rho(1450)$ and $\rho(1700)$. Various tests are investigated.
We investigate the mass spectra of exotic hadrons known as pentaquarks. We extend a simple phenomenological model based on the G\"ursey-Radicati mass formula for hadrons to include both charmed and bottom baryons as well as to be able to…
A resonance search has been made in the D^*+/- p^-/+ invariant-mass spectrum with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 126 pb^-1. The decay channels D^*+ -> D^0 pi^+_s -> (K^- pi^+) pi^+_s and D^*+ -> D^0 pi^+_s ->…
We study initial-state radiation events, $e^+e^- \to \gamma_{ISR}\pi^+\pi^-J/\psi$, with data collected with the BaBar detector. We observe an accumulation of events near 4.26 GeV/$c^2$ in the invariant-mass spectrum of $\pi^+\pi^-J/\psi$.…
A narrow baryon resonance is observed in invariant mass of the pKshort system formed in neutrino and antineutrino collisions with nuclei. The mass of the resonance is estimated as (1533+-5)MeV. The observed width is less than 20 MeV, and is…
We describe a measurement of the mass of the top quark from the purely hadronic decay modes of t-tbar pairs using all-jet data produced in p-pbar collisions at sqrt{s} = 1.8 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The data, which correspond…
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…
