We calculate the threshold $T$ matrices of the light pseudoscalar meson and heavy meson scattering to fourth order in heavy meson chiral perturbation theory. We determine the low-energy constants by fitting to the lattice QCD data points…

The $\Lambda$ and neutron decay widths of $\Xi$ hypernuclear states, based on calculated $\Xi N \to \lala$ mixing amplitudes, are estimated. The widths which result from using the Nijmegen Model D interaction are sufficiently small, of…

A study of the interaction of loosely bound nuclei 6,7Li at 9 and 19 AMeV with light targets has been undertaken. With the determination of unambiguous optical potentials in mind, elastic data for four projectile-target combinations and one…

The KNNN bound states recently discovered at KEK are studied. It is shown that the Lambda(1405) and Sigma(1385) resonant states coupled to the KN system may generate an attraction strong enough to form such bound states.

The differential and total cross sections for the d+p->3He+eta reaction have been measured at COSY-ANKE at excess energies of 19.5, 39.4, and 59.4 MeV over the full angular range. The results are in line with trends apparent from the…

Using separable $\bar{K}N-\pi\Sigma$ potentials in the Faddeev equations, we calculated the binding energies and widths of the $K^{-}pp$, $K^{-}ppn$ and $K^{-}ppp$ quasi-bound states on the basis of three- and four-body…

It is shown that the momentum-dependent kaon-antikaon interactions generated via vector meson exchange from the standard SU_V(3) x SU_A(3) interaction Lagrangian lead to a non-local potential in coordinate space that can be incorporated…

We calculate $K^-$-nucleus elastic differential, reaction and total cross sections for different nuclei ($^{12}$C,$^{40}$Ca and $^{208}$Pb) at several laboratory antikaon momenta, ranging from 127 MeV to 800 MeV. We use different…

The strongly absorptive optical potentials $V_{{\rm opt}}$ which have been deduced from the strong-interaction level shifts and widths in X-ray spectra of $K^-$ and $\bar p$ atoms produce effective repulsion leading to substantial…

We present an exact diagrammatic approach for the problem of dimer-dimer scattering in 3D for dimers being a resonant bound state of two fermions in a spin-singlet state, with corresponding scattering length $a_F$. Applying this approach to…

We extract energies and widths of the ground states of $^5$He and $^5$Li from recent single--level R--matrix fits to the spectra of the $^3$H$({\rm d},\gamma$)$^5$He and the $^3$He$({\rm d},\gamma$)$^5$Li reactions. The widths obtained…

We evaluate theoretically the interaction of the open bottom and strange systems $\bar B\bar K$, $\bar B^* \bar K$, $\bar B\bar K^*$ and $\bar B^*\bar K^*$ to look for possible bound states which could correspond to exotic…

Binding energies of ^{3}H, ^{4}He, and ^{16}O are calculated, using low-momentum nucleon-nucleon interactions (V_{low-k}) for a wide range of the cutoff momentum \Lambda. In addition, single-particle energies in nuclei around ^{16}O are…

We study the interaction of a kaon with the $f_1(1285)$ resonance, assuming that the $f_1(1285)$ is a molecular state generated by the $K \bar K^*, \bar K K^*$ interaction, evaluating the scattering amplitude, the scattering length and…

The investigation of the d, 3H and 3He spin structure has been performed at the RIKEN(Japan) accelerator research facility and VBLHEP(JINR) using both polarized and unpolarized deuteron beams. The experimental results on the analyzing…

We show that the $K^*_2(1430)$, $K^*_3(1780)$, $K^*_4(2045)$, $K^*_5(2380)$ and a not yet discovered $K_6^*$ resonance are basically molecules made of an increasing number of $\rho(770)$ and one $K^*(892)$ mesons. The idea relies on the…
