The last two decades witnessed the discovery of a large number of hadron resonances beyond expectation. They are candidates of exotic hadrons. This talk will review the theoretical understanding of exotic hadrons with strangeness and charm, focusing on hadronic molecules.
Belle and Belle II are B-factory experiments using electron-positron collisions. Not only particle physics, but also hadron spectroscopy is actively pursued in the experiments. In this talk, we will present recent results on exotic (and conventional) hadrons from the Belle experiment and on the status and prospects of the Belle II experiment.
Understanding the dynamics of hadrons with strangeness has received a lot attention over the past decades in connection with the study of exotic atoms, the analysis of strangeness production in particle and nuclear research facilities, and the investigation of different strange phases in the interior of neutron stars. One venue of interest in the field of strangeness is the study of strange...
The hyperon puzzle is one of the primary problems in neutron star physics. $\Lambda$ baryons are expected to appear in neutron star matter at $(2-4)\rho_0$ when two-body interactions based on hypernuclear data are used, but hyperons soften the equation of state (EOS) and make it difficult to explain the existence of $2M_\odot$ neutron stars. Thus $\Lambda$ should feel a strong repulsive...
