We study the \eta' N interaction within a chiral unitary approach which includes \pi N, \eta N and related pseudoscalar meson-baryon coupled channels. Since the SU(3) singlet does not contribute to the standard interaction and the \eta' is…
Leading three-baryon forces are derived within SU(3) chiral effective field theory. Three classes of irreducible diagrams contribute: three-baryon contact terms, one-meson exchange and two-meson exchange diagrams. We provide the minimal…
We review the application of non-relativistic constituent quark models to study one, two and three non-strange baryon systems. We present results for the baryon spectra, potentials and observables of the NN, N$\Delta$, $\Delta\Delta$ and…
We consider the low energy effective action of QCD below the chiral symmetry breaking scale, including, in Wilson's spirit, all operators of dimensionality less or equal to 6 which can be built with quark and chiral fields. The effect of…
Motivated by the recent discovery of two new states in the $B^+\rightarrow D^+D^-K^+$ decay by the LHCb Collaboration, we study the $D\bar{D}K$ three-body system by solving the Schr\"odinger equation with the Gaussian Expansion Method. We…
The relativistic chiral SU(3) Lagrangian is used to describe kaon-nucleon scattering imposing constraints from the pion-nucleon sector and the axial-vector coupling constants of the baryon octet states. We solve the covariant…
The dibaryon concept for the nuclear force is presented, assuming that the main attraction between the nucleons at medium distances is determined by the $s$-channel exchange of an intermediate six-quark (dibaryon) state. To construct the…
We explore the limit at which the effective baryonic Y-string model of the junction approaches the mesonic stringlike behavior. We calculate and compare the numerical values of the static potential and energy-density correlators of…
We employ the chiral nucleon-nucleon potential derived using the method of unitary transformation up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) to study bound and scattering states in the two-nucleon system. The predicted partial wave phase…
The chiral low-energy constants c_D and c_E are constrained by means of accurate ab initio calculations of the A=3 binding energies and, for the first time, of the triton beta decay. We demonstrate that these low-energy observables allow a…
A simple single folding model for $\Omega$-deuteron with maximal spin $\left(I\right)J^{P}=\left(0\right)5/2^{+}$ is investigated. $\Omega$ is assumed to orbit an unperturbed deuteron in a $\Omega$-deuteron potential based on a separable…
We conduct a dynamical calculation of pentaquark systems with quark contents $sssu\bar{u}$ in the framework of two quark models: the chiral quark model(ChQM) and quark delocalization color screening model(QDCSM). The effective potentials…
The implications of chiral $SU(3)_L \times SU(3)_R$ symmetry and heavy quark symmetry for the radiative decays $D^{*0}\to D^0\gamma$, $D^{*+}\to D^+\gamma$, and $D_s^*\to D_s\gamma$ are discussed. Particular attention is paid to $SU(3)$…
Energies of four-quark systems have been extracted in a static quenched SU(2) lattice Monte Carlo calculation for six different geometries, both planar and non-planar, with $\beta=2.4$ and lattice size $16^3\times 32$. In all cases, it is…
We perform a systematic study on the interactions of the $\Sigma_c^{(*)}D^{(*)}$ systems within the framework of chiral effective field theory. We introduce the contact term, one-pion-exchange and two-pion-exchange contributions to describe…
The diquark is a strongly correlated quark pair that plays an important role in hadrons and hadronic matter. In order to treat the diquak as a building block of hadrons, we formulate an effective theory of diquark fields with $SU(3)_R…
Using a chiral unitary approach for meson-baryon scattering in the strangeness zero sector, where the $N^*(1535)$ and $\Delta^*(1700)$ resonances are dynamically generated, we study the reactions $\gamma p \to \pi^0 \eta p$ and $\gamma p…
Previously we calculated the binding energies of the triton and hypertriton, using an SU_6 quark-model interaction derived from a resonating-group method of two baryon clusters. In contrast to the previous calculations employing the…
We study SU(3)$_L\timesSU(3)_R$ chiral quark model of mesons up to the next to leading order of $1/N_c$ expansion. Composite vector and axial-vector mesons resonances are introduced via non-linear realization of chiral SU(3) and vector…
A detailed investigation of the low-energy chiral expansion is presented within a model truncation of QCD. The model dependence of the chiral coefficients is tested for several forms of the quark-quark interaction by varying the form of the…
