The $\eta$ meson can be bound to atomic nuclei. Experimental search is discussed in the form of final state interaction for the reactions $dp\to{^3\text{He}}\eta$ and $dd\to{^4\text{He}}\eta$. For the latter case tensor polarized deuterons…

All five KEK and J-PARC two-body $\Xi^-$+$^A$Z $\to$ $^{A'}_{\Lambda}$Z'+$^{A''}_{\Lambda}$Z'' capture events in light emulsion nuclei, including KISO and IBUKI in $^{14}$N, are consistent with Coulomb-assisted $1p_{\Xi^-}$ nuclear states.…

Experimental evidence for antikaon-nuclear quasi-bound states is briefly reviewed. Theoretical and phenomenological arguments for and against the existence of such states are considered, based on constructing antikaon-nuclear optical…

Characteristics of the quasi-bound state in the $K^- pp$ system strongly depend on the model of antikaon-nucleon interaction and weakly - on the nucleon-nucleon potential. In the present paper, dynamically exact Faddeev-type calculations…

Lately, the LHCb Collaboration reported the discovery of two new states in the $B^+\rightarrow D^+D^- K^+$ decay, i.e., $X_0(2866)$ and $X_1(2904)$. In the present work, we study whether these states can be understood as $D^*\bar{K}^*$…

Since the discovery of $T_{cc}$ by LHCb, there has been considerable interest in $T_{cc}$ and its heavy-flavor partners. However, the study of its strange partner $T_{ss}$ has been largely overlooked. Within the framework of the chiral…
