Abstract In the past decade, exotic hadrons with charm and bottom flavors have been extensively studied both in experiments and in theories. In this review, we provide topical discussions by selecting $X,Y,Z$ particles, to which Belle has made important contributions. These are $X(3872)$, $Y(4260)$, $Z_c(4430)^+$, $Z_c(3900)^+$, $Z_{b}(10610)^+$, and $Z_{b}(10650)^+$. Based on the current experimental observations, we discuss these states with emphasis on the hadronic molecule whose dynamics is governed by chiral symmetry and heavy-quark symmetry of QCD. We also mention briefly various interpretations and some theoretical predictions for the as yet undiscovered exotic hadrons.

We review recent development on combining heavy-quark symmetry and chiral symmetry in the skyrmion structure of the baryons containing one or more heavy quarks, c (charmed) and b (bottom). We describe two approaches: One going from the chiral symmetry regime of light quarks to the heavy-quark symmetry regime which will be referred to as “bottom-up” approach and the other going down from the heavy-quark limit to the realistic finite-mass regime which will be referred to as “top-down.” A possible hidden connection between the two symmetry limits is suggested. This review is based largely on the work done — some unpublished — by the authors since several years.

We calculate the decay width for [Formula: see text] in the framework of a non-relativistic quark (NRQ) model of heavy baryons where the light quarks play the role of spectators. Our calculation does not make an explicit use of the heavy quark symmetry. The branching ratio for the above process as calculated here agrees reasonably well with the experimental value.

Abstract The determination of the CKM element Vcb from inclusive semileptonic b → cℓ$$ \overline{\nu} $$ ν ¯ decays has reached a high precision thanks to a combination of theoretical and experimental efforts. Aiming towards even higher precision, we discuss two processes that contaminate the inclusive Vcb determination; the b → u background and the contribution of the tauonic mode: b → c(τ → μν$$ \overline{\nu} $$ ν ¯ )$$ \overline{\nu} $$ ν ¯ . Both of these contributions are dealt with at the experimental side, using Monte-Carlo methods and momentum cuts. However, these contributions can be calculated with high precision within the Heavy-Quark Expansion. In this note, we calculate the theoretical predictions for these two processes. We compare our b → u results qualitatively with generator-level Monte-Carlo data used at Belle and Belle II. Finally, we suggest to change the strategy for the extraction of Vcb by comparing the data on B → Xℓ directly with the theoretical expressions, to which our paper facilitates.

An overview is given of the structure and the physics of magnetic features in solar plages, as derived from observations of near-infrared lines. First, the diagnostic potential of near-infrared lines is compared with that of lines in the visible and at 12 μm. Then, the results on the magnetic and velocity structure of magnetic features obtained from 1.5 μm lines are described, discussed and compared with results of observations in the visible and with theoretical predictions. Finally, the past and present achievements of near-infrared investigations of Zeeman-split lines are summarized.
