Abstract: We study the scattering parameters of the K+K0 system through the analysis of the D+-> K0 pi+eta reaction, aiming at determining the scattering length a and effective range r0 of the K+K0 interaction. These parameters are extracted by analyzing and fitting the mass distributions of the pairs in the final K0 pi+eta state. To ensure the reliability of the results, we apply resampling techniques to evaluate statistical uncertainties and improve the precision of the scattering parameters. The obtained results are compared with previous theoretical predictions and experimental data, providing new insights into the K+K0 interaction at low energies.

Song, J., Duan, M. Y., Roca, L., & Oset, E. (2024). Pentaquark molecular states with hidden bottom and double strangeness. Eur. Phys. J. C, 84(10), 1055–8pp.
Abstract: We investigate the meson-baryon interaction in coupled channels with the quantum numbers of the pentaquarks Pbss and Pbsss. The interaction is derived from an extension of the local hidden gauge approach to the heavy quark sector, which has demonstrated accurate results compared to experiments involving Ωb, Ξb states, and pentaquarks Pc and Pcs. In our study, we identify several molecular states with small decay widths within the chosen set of coupled channels. The spin-parity (JP) of these states is as follows: JP=12− for pseudoscalar-baryon (12+) coupled channels, JP=32− for pseudoscalar-baryon (32+) coupled channels, JP=12− and 32− for vector-baryon (12+) coupled channels, and JP=12−, 32−, 52− for vector-baryon (32+) coupled channels. We search for the poles of these states and evaluate their couplings to the different channels.

Song, J., Liang, W. H., Xiao, C. W., Dias, J. M., & Oset, E. (2024). Testing the molecular nature of the Ω (2012) with the ψ (3770) → (Ω)over-bar(K)over-barΞ and ψ (3770) → (Ω)over-bar(K)over-barΞ* (1530) ((Ω)over-bar(K)over-barπΞ) reactions. Eur. Phys. J. C, 84(12), 1311–7pp.
Abstract: We report on the reactions psi(3770) -> (Omega) over bar+(K) over bar Xi and psi(3770) -> (Omega) over bar (+)(K) over bar Xi*(1530) (Xi* (1530) -> pi Xi), and calculate the mass distributions d Gamma/dM(inv)((K) over bar Xi) and d Gamma/dM(inv)(K Xi*), respectively. We obtain clear peaks corresponding to the Omega(2012). From the decay of psi(3770) -> (Omega) over bar (+)(K) over bar Xi*, we also get a second, broader, peak around 2035MeV, which comes from the Omega(2012) decay to (K) over bar Xi*. This second peak is closely tied to the molecular picture of the Omega(2012) with the (K) over bar Xi* (1530) and eta Omega components. Its observation would provide a boost to the molecular picture of the Omega (2012).

Abstract: This paper investigates the decay process Lambda-Sigma++-- with the objective of finding a predicted molecular state with isospin = 1, = 2+ of nature, plus finding support for the (4312) state as made out of Sigma. The mass distribution of the -- system shows distinct features as a consequence of the existence of this 2+ state, while the Sigma distribution exhibits a significant peak near the threshold, much bigger than phase space expectations, which is linked to our assumed Sigma nature of the (4312) state below the Sigma threshold. The reaction has been measured at LHCb Collaboration, but only the branching ratio is measured. The present study shows that much valuable information can be obtained about the predicted 2+ (2834) of nature and the (4312) states from the measurements of the mass distributions in this reaction, which will be accessible in the planned updates of LHCb.

Abstract: We study the B- -> D- D0 K0S reaction, recently analyzed by the LHCb Collaboration, where a clear signal for the exotic Tcs0(2870) state was reported. We call attention to a small peak in the D0K0S mass distribution that could correspond to a state of the same nature as the Tcs0(2870) (D*K<overline>* nature in the molecular picture), but with JP = 2+. In order to magnify the signal for the state, we calculate the moments of the angle-mass distribution, which are linear in the resonance signal, rather than quadratic for the angle integrated mass distribution. We find spectra for the moments with a strength far bigger than that for the angle integrated mass distribution, which should encourage the evaluation of these moments from the present measurements of the reaction.
