Study of the {gamma}d {yields} K{sup +}K{sup -}np reaction and an alternative explanation for the ''{Theta}{sup +}'' peak
We look for an explanation of the peak in the K{sup +}n invariant mass distribution of the {gamma}d {yields} K{sup +}K{sup -}n p reaction that was associated to the {Theta}{sup +}(1540) pentaquark at LEPS. For this we develop a theoretical model adapted to the experiment. The study shows that the method used in the experiment to associate momenta to the undetected proton and neutron, together with the chosen cuts, necessarily creates an artificial broad peak in the assumed K{sup +}n invariant mass in the region of the claimed {Theta}{sup +}(1540), such that the remaining strength seen for the experimental peak is compatible with a fluctuation of 2{sigma} significance.
Prediction of narrow N* and {Lambda}* with hidden charm
The interaction between various charmed mesons and charmed baryons, such as D-bar{Sigma}{sub c}-D-bar{Lambda}{sub c}, D-bar*{Sigma}{sub c}-D-bar*{Lambda}{sub c}, and related strangeness channels, are studied within the framework of the coupled channel unitary approach with the local hidden gauge formalism. Six narrow N* and {Lambda}* resonances are dynamically generated with mass above 4 GeV and width smaller than 100 MeV. These predicted new resonances definitely cannot be accommodated by quark models with three constituent quarks. We make estimates of production cross sections of these predicted resonances in p-barp collisions for PANDA at the forthcoming FAIR facility.
Dynamically generated hadron resonances
As an example of dynamically generated resonances we mention the interaction of vector mesons with baryons within the local hidden gauge formalism which gives rise to a large amount of such states, many of which can be associated to known resonances, while others represent predictions for new resonances. The width of these states coming from decay into pseudoscalar baryon is also addressed. We also mention recent states coming from {rho}{pi} interaction obtained with Faddeev equations.
Hadronic particles made of multi-{rho}(770) mesons
We summarize the work [1] where we studied the few body system made of several {rho}(770) mesons. Based on the very strong interaction of two {rho}(770) vector mesons in spin 2 and isospin 0, we show that the resonances {rho}3(1690)(3{sup --}), f4(2050)(4{sup ++}), {rho}5(2350)(5{sup --}) and f6(2510)(6{sup ++}) can be interpreted as few body systems made of an increasing number of {rho}(770) particles. The fixed center approximation of the Faddeev equations is used in order to write the multi-body interaction in terms of the elementary two-body scattering amplitudes. Very good agreement with the experimental masses is found. An extension of the model to include also the interaction with K*(895) is discussed.
N* production from pp and p-barp collisions
With an effective Lagrangian approach, we give a full analysis on the NN{yields}NN{pi}{pi} and pp{yields}pn{pi}{sup +} reactions for proton beam energy from 1 to 1.5 GeV. The results are very consistent with the experiment data from CELSIUS, KEK, COSY, and so on. Based on these results, we consider the N-barN{yields}N-barN{pi}{pi} and p-barp{yields}p-barn{pi}{sup +} for proton beam energy up to 4 GeV. Compare to the pp collisions, there are many benefits to study N* resonances in these two reactions. And for the high proton beam energy up to 15 GeV, we consider some new resonances with hidden charm which are definitely beyond three constituent quarks model in the p-barp{yields}p-barpJ/{psi} and p-barp{yields}p-barp{eta}{sub c}, where there are very nice places to find these new N{sub cc}-bar*. The predicted results about p-barp collisions can be looked for at the forthcoming PANDA/FAIR experiments.
The pp{yields}p{Lambda}K{sup +} and pp{yields}p{Sigma}{sup 0}K{sup +} reactions with chiral dynamics
We report on a theoretical study of the pp{yields}p{Lambda}K{sup +} and pp{yields}p{Sigma}{sup 0}K{sup +} reactions near threshold using a chiral dynamical approach. The production process is described by single-pion and single-kaon exchange. The final state interactions of nucleon-hyperon, K-hyperon, and K-nucleon systems are also taken into account. We show that our model leads to a fair description of the experimental data on the total cross section of the pp{yields}p{Lambda}K{sup +} and pp{yields}p{Sigma}{sup 0}K{sup +} reactions. We find that the experimental observed strong suppression of {Sigma}{sup 0} production compared to {Lambda} production at the same excess energy can be explained. However, ignorance of phases between some amplitudes does not allow one to properly account for the nucleon-hyperon final state interaction for the pp{yields}p{Sigma}{sup 0}K{sup +} reaction. We also demonstrate that the invariant mass distribution and the Dalitz plot provide direct information about the {Lambda} and {Sigma}{sup 0} production mechanisms and may be tested by experiments at COSY or HIRFL-CSR.
