The existence of baryonium-bound or resonant states composed of a baryon and an antibaryon has long been postulated as a natural extension of conventional hadron spectroscopy. In the present work, we conduct a systematic investigation of…
The nonleptonic weak decay processes $\Omega_c \to \Omega\pi^+/\Omega(1P)\pi^+/\Omega(1D)\pi^+/\Omega(2S)\pi^+$ are studied using the constituent quark model. The branching fraction of $\Omega_c \to \Omega\pi^+$ is predicted to be $1.0\%$.…
A search for fully reconstructed Lambda_b baryons was performed, using about 3.5x10^6 hadronic Z0 decays acquired by the DELPHI detector at LEP-1. Two event candidates were found in the colour-suppressed decay channel J/psi Lambda, and four…
We report on a new ZEUS search for a narrow state decaying into $p(\bar{p})K^0_S$, which was previously claimed by the ZEUS collaboration. In the present search, which uses much increased statistics, no evidence for this state is found.…
Using a data set of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ taken at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we measure the process $e^+e^-\rightarrow J/\psi\gamma\rightarrow \mu^+\mu^-\gamma$ and determine…
A symmetry-preserving treatment of a vector$\times$vector contact interaction is used to compute spectra of ground-state $J^P = 0^\pm, 1^\pm$ $(f\bar g)$ mesons, their partner diquark correlations, and $J^P=1/2^\pm, 3/2^\pm$ $(fgh)$…
The 2m propane bubble chamber experimental data have been analyzed to search for an exotic baryon state, the $\Theta^+$ -baryon, in the $pK^0_s$ decay mode for the reaction p+$C_3H_8$ at 10 GeV/c. The $pK^0_s$ invariant mass spectrum shows…
We report evidence for the $B$ meson decays, $B^\pm\to J/\psi \eta K^\pm$ and $B^0\to J/\psi \eta K^0_S$, using {90} million $B\bar B$ events collected at the $\ensuremath{\Upsilon{(4S)}}$ resonance with the \babar detector at the PEP-II…
We present a preliminary measurement of the branching fraction for the decay of the neutral $B$ meson into the final state J/$\psi\pi^+\pi^-$. The data set contains approximately 56 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs produced at the $\Upsilon(4S)$…
A sample of 3.95M $\psi(2S)$ decays registered in the BES detector are used to study final states containing pairs of octet and decuplet baryons. We report branching fractions for $\psi(2S)\to p\bar{p}$, $\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}$,…
