The Nijmegen Unitarized Meson Model and its application to scalar mesons is briefly revisited. It is shown that all scalar states up to 1.5 GeV can be described as triplet-P-zero quark+antiquark states coupled to the OZI-allowed open and…
The $\beta$-delayed neutron decay of $^{17}$B was studied using a radioactive ion beam. The neutron energies, measured via time-of-flight, give information on states in $^{17}$C above the $^{16}$C + neutron threshold. States in $^{17}$C…
The $\Delta$ decay in the nuclear medium is calculated in the relativistic meson-nucleon model. The delta spreading width is calculated and compared with the Pauli-blocked $\pi$N decay width. The influence of relativistic mean fields is…
Observations of type Ia supernovae include information about the characteristic nucleosynthesis associated with these thermonuclear explosions. We consider observational constraints from iron-group elemental and isotopic ratios, to compare…
After a short introduction to the nonmesonic weak decay (NMWD) $\Lambda N\go nN$ of $\Lambda$-hypernuclei we discuss the long-standing puzzle on the ratio $\Gamma_n/\Gamma_p$, and some recent experimental evidences that signalized towards…
The $\Lambda$-hypernucleus production by $A(p, pK^+)_{\Lambda}B$ reactions is investigated within the framework of the distorted wave impulse approximation(DWIA). The amplitude for the elementary process is evaluated in a fully covariant…
Recent studies of the $\Lambda(1520)$ resonance within chiral unitary theory with coupled channels find the resonance as a dynamically generated state from the interaction of the decuplet of baryons and the octet of mesons, essentially a…
In this talk, we present a new interpretation for the recently observed $\Xi(1820)$ resonance. We recall that the chiral unitary approach for the interaction of pseudoscalar mesons with the baryons of the decuplet predicts two states for…
In this talk we report on selected topics on hadrons in nuclei. The first topic is the renormalization of the width of the $\Lambda(1520)$ in a nuclear medium. This is followed by a short update of the situation of the $\omega$ in the…
he observed well-known resonances $\Sigma^0$ $\Sigma^{*+}$(1385) and $K^{*\pm}$(892) from PDG are good tests of this method. Exotic strange multibaryon states have been observed in the effective mass spectra of: $\Lambda \pi^{\pm}$,$\Lambda…
Single-particle energies of the $\Lambda$ and $\Sigma$ hyperons are obtained from the relevant self-energies. The latter are constructed within the framework of a perturbative many-body approach employing present realistic hyperon-nucleon…
Recent studies of strong interaction effects in kaonic atoms suggest that analysing so-called `lower' and `upper' levels in the same atom could separate one-nucleon absorption from multinucleon processes. The present work examines the…
We analyze the statistics of resonance widths in a many-body Fermi system with open decay channels. Depending on the strength of continuum coupling, such a system reveals growing deviations from the standard chi-square (Porter-Thomas) width…
We report first results on a deep sub-threshold production of the doubly strange hyperon $\Xi^-$ in a heavy-ion reaction. At a beam energy of 1.76A GeV the reaction Ar+KCl was studied with the High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer…
Motivated by the newly observed narrow structures $\Omega_b(6316)^-$, $\Omega_b(6330)^-$, $\Omega_b(6340)^-$, and $\Omega_b(6350)^-$ in the $\Xi_b^0 K^-$ mass spectrum, we investigate the strong decays of the low-lying $\Omega_b$ states…
The $\Xi_c^+ K^-$ mass spectrum is studied with a sample of $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.3 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment. The $\Xi_c^+$ is reconstructed in the decay mode $p K^- \pi^+$.…

We analyse the properties of the kaonic nuclear cluster (KNC) anti-KNN with the structure Nx(anti-KN)_(I = 0), having the quantum numbers I(J^P) = 1/2(0^-), and treated as a quasi-bound hadronic molecule state. We describe the properties of…
