We perform a model-independent analysis for recently reported data of the $\pi^+\pi^-$ invariant mass spectra in the $\Upsilon(4S)\to\Upsilon(1S,2S)\pi^+\pi^-$ decays and point out that there does exist a broad peak below 0.6 GeV in the…

We investigate the two-body decay modes $\rho\rho, \pi\pi^{\ast}(1300)$ and $\sigma \sigma$ of the $f_0(1500)$, all leading to the $4\pi$ decay channel, in a three-state mixing scheme, where the $f_0(1500)$ is a mixture of the lowest-lying…

We study the mechanism of the weak decay process of Xi_b^0 into D^0 with a meson-baryon pair. It is shown that the dominant component of the prompt weak decay produces the meson-baryon pair with the spectator strange quark being transferred…

Recently, the monopole transition form factor of the electron-scattering excitation of the 0^+_2 state (E_x=20.21 MeV) of the 4He nucleus was observed over a broad momentum transfer range (0.5 < q^2 < 5.0 fm^-2) with dramatically improved…

Low-lying hypernuclei $ ^3_{\Lambda}H$, $ ^3_{\Sigma}H$, $ ^3_{\Lambda}He$, $ ^3_{\Sigma}He$ are described by the relativistic nine-quark equations in the framework of the dispersion relation technique. The approximate solutions of these…

Two mechanisms for the $\pi_1$ ($J^{PC}=1^{-+}$) hybrid meson decay processes $\pi_1\to\eta\pi,\eta'\pi$ are investigated. These mechanisms are applied to $\phi\to\eta\gamma,\eta'\gamma$ and $J/\psi\to\eta\gamma,\eta'\gamma$ decays to…

We present the first determination of the hadronic decays of the lightest exotic $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ resonance in lattice QCD. Working with SU(3) flavor symmetry, where the up, down and strange quark masses approximately match the physical…

Based on 4.5 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data accumulated at center-of-mass energies between $4599.53$ MeV and $4698.82$ MeV with the BESIII detector, the decay $\Lambda_{c}^{+}\to nK_{S}^{0}\pi^+\pi^0$ is observed for the first…

We describe the $\pi\pi$ $S$-wave in $D^+ \to\pi^+ \pi^- \pi^+$ decays using a unitary model for the $\pi\pi$ Final State Interactions (FSI). The three body decay is treated as a quasi two-body process where, at the weak vertex, the D meson…

Based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.4~fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation and collected with the BESIII detector at 13 center-of-mass energy points ranging between 4.600~GeV and 4.950~GeV, we report the…

The cluster $^4\rm He+\Lambda+\rm n$ model is applied to describe the $^6_\Lambda$He hypernucleus. The consideration is based on the configuration space Faddeev equations for a system of non-identical particles. A set of the pair potentials…

Measurements of the rates for the hadronic decays B^+- -> pi K along with the CP-averaged B^+- -> pi^+- pi^0 branching ratio can be used to bound and extract the weak phase gamma=-arg(V_ub). Using preliminary CLEO data, we obtain the bounds…

We examine the radiative decays of the Lambda (1405) to octet baryons, Lambda + gamma and Sigma + gamma. In the limit of SU(3) symmetry the decay rates for these two modes are related, and we compute the leading correction to the relation…

The radiative decay of $\Lambda (1405)$ is investigated from the viewpoint of compositeness, which corresponds to the amount of two-body states composing resonances as well as bound states. For a $\bar{K}N (I=0)$ bound state without…

We investigate the rare radiative eta decay modes $\eta\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma\gamma$ and $\eta\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma\gamma$ within the framework of chiral perturbation theory at $O(p^4)$. We present photon spectra and partial decay rates for both…
