The strong decays of charm-strange baryons up to N=2 shell are studied in a chiral quark model. The theoretical predictions for the well determined charm-strange baryons, $Xi_c^*(2645)$, $Xi_c(2790)$ and $Xi_c(2815)$, are in good agreement with the experimental data. This model is also extended to analyze the strong decays of the other newly observed charm-strange baryons $Xi_c(2930)$, $Xi_c(2980)$, $Xi_c(3055)$, $Xi_c(3080)$ and $Xi_c(3123)$. Our predictions are given as follows. (i) $Xi_c(2930)$ might be the first $P$-wave excitation of $Xi_c$ with $J^P=1/2^-$, favors the $|Xi_c ^2P_lambda 1/2^->$ or $|Xi_c ^4P_lambda 1/2^->$ state. (ii) $Xi_c(2980)$ might correspond to two overlapping $P$-wave states $|Xi_c ^2P_rho 1/2^->$ and $|Xi_c ^2P_rho 3/2^->$, respectively. The $Xi_c(2980)$ observed in the $Lambda_c^+bar{K}pi$ final state is most likely to be the $|Xi_c ^2P_rho 1/2^->$ state, while the narrower resonance with a mass $msimeq 2.97$ GeV observed in the $Xi_c^*(2645)pi$ channel favors to be assigned to the $|Xi_c ^2P_rho 3/2^->$ state. (iii) $Xi_c(3080)$ favors to be classified as the $|Xi_c S_{rhorho} 1/2^+>$ state, i.e., the first radial excitation (2S) of $Xi_c$. (iv) $Xi_c(3055)$ is most likely to be the first $D$-wave excitation of $Xi_c$ with $J^P=3/2^+$, favors the $|Xi_c ^2D_{lambdalambda} 3/2^+>$ state. (v) $Xi_c(3123)$ might be assigned to the $|Xi_c ^4D_{lambdalambda} 3/2^+>$, $|Xi_c ^4D_{lambdalambda} 5/2^+>$, or $|Xi_c ^2D_{rhorho} 5/2^+>$ state. As a by-product, we calculate the strong decays of the bottom baryons $Sigma_b^{pm}$, $Sigma_b^{*pm}$ and $Xi_b^*$, which are in good agreement with the recent observations as well.

In the framework chiral SU(3) quark model, the baryon spectra within the band of $Nleq 2$ are studied, and the effect of the confining potential in different configurations, namely the $Delta$-mode and Y-mode are compared. In the same way, the baryon spectra in the extended chiral SU(3) quark model, in which additional vector meson exchanges are introduced, are also calculated. It is shown that a reasonable baryon spectrum in the chiral SU(3) quark model can be achieved no matter whether the $Delta$-mode or the Y-mode confining potential is employed. In the extended chiral SU(3) quark model, several energy levels are further improved. The resultant binding energies of excited baryon states in different confining modes deviate just by a few to several tens MeV, and it is hard to justify which confining mode is the dominant one. The non-strange baryon strong decay widths are further discussed in the point-like meson emission model by using the wave-function obtained in the spectrum calculation. The resultant widths can generally explain the experimental data but still cannot distinguish which confining mode is more important in this simple decay mode.
Combining the recent developments of the observations of $Omega$ sates we calculate the $Omega$ spectrum up to the $N=2$ shell within a nonrelativistic constituent quark potential model. Furthermore, the strong and radiative decay properties for the $Omega$ resonances within the $N=2$ shell are evaluated by using the masses and wave functions obtained from the potential model. It is found that the newly observed $Omega(2012)$ resonance is most likely to be the spin-parity $J^P=3/2^-$ $1P$-wave state $Omega(1^{2}P_{3/2^{-}})$, it also has a large potential to be observed in the $Omega(1672)gamma$ channel. Our calculation shows that the 1$P$-, 1$D$-, and 2$S$-wave $Omega$ baryons have a relatively narrow decay width of less than 50 MeV. Based on the obtained decay properties and mass spectrum, we further suggest optimum channels and mass regions to find the missing $Omega$ resonances via the strong and/or radiative decay processes.
Understanding the properties of the strange $Lambda^*$ baryon resonances is a long-standing and fascinating problem. $Lambda_c$ charm-baryon semileptonic weak decays to these resonances are highly sensitive to their internal structure and can be used to test theoretical models. We have performed the first lattice-QCD computation of the form factors governing $Lambda_c$ semileptonic decays to a $Lambda^*$ resonance: the $Lambda^*(1520)$, which has negative parity and spin $3/2$. Here we present the resulting Standard-Model predictions of the $Lambda_ctoLambda^*(1520)ell^+ u_ell$ differential and integrated decay rates as well as angular observables. Furthermore, by combining the recent BESIII measurement of the $Lambda_c to X e^+ u_e$ inclusive semipositronic branching fraction [Phys. Rev. Lett. 121, 251801 (2018)] with lattice-QCD predictions of the $Lambda_c to Lambda e^+ u_e$, $Lambda_c to n e^+ u_e$, and $Lambda_c to Lambda^*(1520) e^+ u_e$ decay rates, we obtain an upper limit on the sum of the branching fractions to all other semipositronic final states. In particular, this upper limit constrains the $Lambda_ctoLambda^*(1405)e^+ u_e$ branching fraction to be very small, which may be another hint for a molecular structure of the $Lambda^*(1405)$.
In this work we calculate the mass spectrum of strangeonium up to the $3D$ multiplet within a nonrelativistic linear potential quark model. Furthermore, using the obtained wave functions, we also evaluate the strong decays of the strangeonium states with the $^3P_0$ model. Based on our successful explanations of the well established states $phi(1020)$, $phi(1680)$, $h_1(1415)$, $f_2(1525)$, and $phi_3(1850)$, we further discuss the possible assignments of strangeonium-like states from experiments by combining our theoretical results with the observations. It is found that some resonances, such as $f_2(2010)$ and $f_2(2150)$ listed by the Particle Data Group, and $X(2062)$ and $X(2500)$ newly observed by BESIII, may be interpreted as the strangeonium states. The possibility of $phi(2170)$ as a candidate for $phi(3S)$ or $phi(2D)$ cannot be excluded. We expect our results to provide useful references for looking for the missing $sbar{s}$ states in future experiments.
The lightest hidden-bottom tetraquarks in the dynamical diquark model fill an $S$-wave multiplet consisting of 12 isomultiplets. We predict their masses and dominant bottomonium decay channels using a simple 3-parameter Hamiltonian that captures the core fine-structure features of the model, including isospin dependence. The only experimental inputs needed are the corresponding observables for $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$. The mass of $X_b$, the bottom analogue to $X(3872)$, is highly constrained in this scheme. In addition, using lattice-calculated potentials we predict the location of the center of mass of the $P$-wave multiplet and find that $Y(10860)$ fits well but the newly discovered $Y(10750)$ does not, more plausibly being a $D$-wave bottomonium state. Using similar methods, we also examine the lowest $S$-wave multiplet of 6 $cbar c sbar s$ states, assuming as in earlier work that $X(3915)$ and $Y(4140)$ are members, and predict the masses and dominant charmonium decay modes of the other states. We again use lattice potentials to compute the centers of mass of higher multiplets, and find them to be compatible with the masses of $Y(4626)$ ($1P$) and $X(4700)$ ($2S$), respectively.
