Considering four-point correlation functions of color-singlet quark bilinears, we investigate, in the large-$N_{\mathrm{c}}$ limit of QCD, the subleading diagrams that involve, in the $s$-channel of meson-meson scattering amplitudes,…
The decuplet baryons, $\Delta$, $\Sigma^{*}$, $\Xi^{*}$ and $\Omega^{-}$, are studied in nuclear matter by using the in-medium QCD sum rules. By fixing the three momentum of the particles under consideration at the rest frame of the medium,…
The lattice QCD simulation of $NJ/\psi$ and $N\eta_c$ scattering is performed at $m_\pi\simeq 266~$MeV in channels with all possible $J^P$. This includes $J^P=3/2^\pm$ and $5/2^\pm$ where LHCb discovered $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4450)$…
The existence of the $\Theta^+$ pentaquark requires a peculiar mechanism to explain its stability. Looking at quark clusters, notably diquark and triquark configurations, such a mechanism may be found in the color-magnetic interaction…
The masses of exotic quantum-number $1^{-+}$ compact tetraquark states are calculated in a constituent quark model, where a Cornell-like potential is employed as the central potential, spin-spin and spin-orbit coupling derived from the…
We study the multiquark hadrons in large $N$ QCD under the 't-Hooft limit, extending Witten's picture of the baryons. We explore the decay widths of tetraquarks, pentaquarks and dibaryons. Based on the decay behaviors, we point out in the…
Very recently, the LHCb Collaboration reported the doubly charmed tetraquark state $T_{cc}^+$ below the $D^{*+}D^0$ threshold about $273$ keV. As a very near-threshold state, its long-distance structure is very important. In the molecular…
The existence of pentaquarks, namely baryonic states made up of four quarks and one antiquark, became questionable, because the candidates, i.e. the $\Theta^+$ peak, are seen in certain reactions, i.e. p+p collisions, but not in others,…
We report on the progress of the pentaquark searches by the STAR collaboration in p+p, d+Au, and Au+Au at $s_{NN}=\sqrt{200}$ GeV collisions through one of the decay modes of $\Theta^{+}\to p+K_{s}^{0}$. $\Theta^{+}$ state is an exotic…
We use a theoretical model of the $\gamma ~d \to ~K^+ K^- ~n ~p $ reaction adapted to the experiment done at LEPS where a peak was observed and associated to the $\Theta^{+}(1540)$ pentaquark. The study shows that the method used in the…
Recently, the tetraquark mixing framework has been proposed as a possible structure for the two light-meson nonets in the $J^P=0^+$ channel, the light nonet composed of $a_0(980)$, $K_0^*(700)$, $f_0(500)$, $f_0(980)$, and the heavy nonet…
Prompted by the recent surprising results in QCD spectroscopy, we extend to heavy flavors the hadron mass relations showing that the constituent quark mass differences and ratios have the same values when obtained from mesons and baryons.…
Recently the LHCb collaboration has announced the discovery of the $T_{cc}^+$ tetraquark. Being merely a few hundred ${\rm keV}$ below the $D^{*+} D^0$ threshold, the $T_{cc}^+$ is expected to have a molecular component, for which there is…
We study the gamma p ---> K^+ Lambda(1405) reaction at energies close to threshold using a chiral unitary model where the resonance is generated dynamically from K^-p interaction with other channels constructed from the octets of baryons…
We study spin 1/2 isoscalar and isovector candidates in both parity channels for the recently discovered \Theta^+(1540) pentaquark particle in quenched lattice QCD. Our analysis takes into account all possible uncertainties, such as…
The non-mesonic weak decay of $\Lambda$-hypernuclei is studied within a microscopic diagrammatic approach which includes, for the first time, the effect or the $\Delta$-baryon resonance. We adopt a nuclear matter formalism extended to…
The experimental signature of an S=+1 baryon of mass 1540 MeV and width 10-25 MeV has led to speculation that this is an exotic baryon consisting of 4 quarks and 1 antiquark lying at the top of a $\bar{10}$ SU(3) multiplet. The observed…
The strangeness-changing ($\Delta S = 1$) weak baryon-baryon interaction is studied through the nonmesonic weak decay of double-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei. Besides the usual nucleon-induced decay $\Lambda N \to N N$ we discuss novel…
We construct a chiral lagrangian for pentaquark baryons assuming that the recently found Theta^+ (1540) state belongs to an antidecuplet of SU(3) flavor symmetry with J^P = (1/2)^(+-). We derive the Gell-Mann-Okubo formulae for the…
QCD instantons are known to produce deeply bound diquarks which may be used as building blocks in the formation of multiquark states, in particular pentaquarks and dibaryons. We suggest a simple model in which the lowest scalar diquark (and…
