The reaction $\gamma p \rightarrow K^{+} \Lambda(1520)$ using photoproduction data from the CLAS $g12$ experiment at Jefferson Lab is studied. The decay of $\Lambda(1520)$ into two exclusive channels, $\Sigma^{+}\pi^{-}$ and…
The $s-$wave meson-baryon scattering is analyzed for the strangeness S=0 sector in a Bethe-Salpeter coupled channel formalism incorporating Chiral Symmetry. Four channels have been considered: $\pi N$, $\eta N$, $K \Lambda$, $K \Sigma$. The…
The long mean free path of $K^+$ mesons in nuclear matter makes this particle a suitable messenger for the dynamics of nucleus-nucleus reactions at intermediate energies (100 MeV to 3 GeV per nucleon). A prerequisite for this is the…
Differential cross sections and photon-beam asymmetries for the gamma p -> K+ Lambda(1520) reaction have been measured with linearly polarized photon beams at energies from the threshold to 2.4 GeV at 0.6<cos(theta)<1. A new bump structure…
We have carried out a study of the $\gamma ~ p \rightarrow p K^{+} K^{*-} (K^{*-} \rightarrow K^{-} \pi^{0}) $, $ \gamma ~p \rightarrow p K^{+} K^{*-} ( K^{*-} \rightarrow \bar{K}^{0} \pi^{-} )$ and $ \gamma ~p \rightarrow K^{+} K^{-}p$…
We use a nonperturbative approach which combines coupled channel Lippmann Schwinger equations with meson-meson potentials provided by the lowest order chiral Lagrangians. By means of one parameter, a cut off in the momentum of the loop…
Using $(10087\pm 44)\times10^6$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we report the first observation of the electromagnetic radiative decays of the $\Lambda(1520)$ and $\Lambda(1670)$ to $\gamma\Sigma^0$, with a statistical…
Last year, the $\Xi(1620)$ state that is cataloged in the Particle Data Group (PDG) with only one star is reported again in the $\Xi^{-}\pi^{+}$ final state by the Belle Collaboration. Its properties not only the spectroscopy but also the…
We present a novel approach to the density dependent mean field and the spin-orbit interaction of a $\Lambda$-hyperon in a nuclear many-body system, based on flavor-SU(3) in-medium chiral perturbation theory. The leading long-range $\Lambda…
A recently introduced relativistic nuclear energy density functional, constrained by features of low-energy QCD, is extended to describe the structure of hypernuclei. The density-dependent mean field and the spin-orbit potential of a…
We construct an effective hadronic model including $\Lambda_c(2595)$, $\Lambda_c(2625)$, $\Lambda_b(5912)$ and $\Lambda_b(5920)$ regarding them as chiral partners to $\Sigma_c(2455)$, $\Sigma_c(2520)$, $\Sigma_b$ and $\Sigma_b^\ast$,…
This work is dedicated to the search for a $\pi\Lambda N\!-\!\pi\Sigma N$ resonance $\mathcal{Y}$ with the quantum numbers ($Y,I,J^P$) = (1,3/2,$2^+$). The double charged $\Sigma(1385)N\!-\!\Delta(1232)Y$ quasibound state was looked for in…
The structure of dynamically generated states is studied from a viewpoint of the finite volume effect. We establish the relation between the spatial size of a stable bound state and the finite volume mass shift. In a single-channel…
We show that a $\Xi ^{\ast}$ pole can be dynamically generated near the $\bar{K} \Sigma$ threshold as an $s$-wave $\bar{K} \Sigma$ molecular state in a coupled-channels unitary approach with the leading-order chiral interaction. This $\Xi…
Two reactions, pp->ppX and pp->p\pi^+X, are used to study the 1.47<M<1.68 GeV baryonic mass range. Three different final states are considered in the invariant masses: N^* or \Delta^+, p\pi^0, and p\eta. The last two channels are defined by…
The reaction $\pi^{-}p \to \eta n$ is investigated within a dynamical coupled-channels model of meson production reactions in the nucleon resonance region. The meson baryon channels included are $\pi N$, $\eta N$, $\pi \Delta$, $\sigma N$,…
We study the Belle reaction $\Xi_c^+ \to \Xi^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ looking at the mass distribution of $\pi^+ \Xi$, where clear signals for the $\Xi(1620)$ and $\Xi(1690)$ resonances are seen. These two resonances are generated dynamically from…
