I shall report on predictions made for hidden charm molecular states from the meson baryon interaction which are in good agreement with the findings of the LHCb collaboration on the pentaquark states.
Similarly, predictions were done for a molecular exotic state from the D Kbar interaction which also agree with the LHCb findings of the X0(2866). Another state was predicted from the...
Three hidden-charm pentaquark $P_c$ states, $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$, and $P_c(4457)$ were revealed in the $\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi p K^-$ process measured by LHCb using both run I and run II data. For the first time, such an analysis is performed employing a coupled-channel formalism with the scattering potential involving both one-pion exchange as well as short-range operators constrained by...
I will review recent advances on the QCD phase diagram, regarding mostly the nature of the chiral phase transition and its interplay with $U(1)_A$ restoration. Ward Identities and Hadron Effective Theories will be the main theoretical tools. The former allow to establish the thermal behaviour of chiral and $U(1)_A$ partners whereas the latter turns out to be quite fruitful for certain...
