    Single-pole nature of Lambda (1405) and structure of K-pp

    We have studied the structure of K- pp by solving this system in a variational treatment, starting from ansatz that Lambda(1405) is a K-p quasi-bound state, Lambda* with mass 1405 MeV/c2. The structure of K-pp reveals a molecular feature, namely, the K- in an "atomic center", Lambda*, plays a key role in producing strong covalent bonding with the other proton. Deeply bound Kbar nuclear systems are formed by this "super-strong" nuclear force due to migrating real bosons, Kbar, a la Heitler-London-Heisenberg, which overcompensates the stiff nuclear incompressibility. Theoretical background of the Lambda (1405) ansatz is discussed in connection with the double-pole picture of Lambda (1405) based on chiral SU(3) dynamics. Detailed analysis reveals single-pole nature of the observable Lambda (1405). There are two kinds of Sigma pi invariant masses experimentally observable, the usual T22 invariant mass and the conversion T21 invariant mass. It is of vital importance to determine whether the Lambda* mass is 1405 MeV or 1420 MeV. The T21 invariant mass from K- absorption at rest in deuteron can provide decisive information about this Lambda* mass problem.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, Proc. Hyp-

    A search for weakly interacting massive particle dark matter produced in association with bottom or top quarks is presented. Final states containing third-generation quarks and miss- ing transverse momentum are considered. The analysis uses 36.1 fb−1 of proton–proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at √s = 13 TeV in 2015 and 2016. No significant excess of events above the estimated backgrounds is observed. The results are in- terpreted in the framework of simplified models of spin-0 dark-matter mediators. For colour- neutral spin-0 mediators produced in association with top quarks and decaying into a pair of dark-matter particles, mediator masses below 50 GeV are excluded assuming a dark-matter candidate mass of 1 GeV and unitary couplings. For scalar and pseudoscalar mediators produced in association with bottom quarks, the search sets limits on the production cross- section of 300 times the predicted rate for mediators with masses between 10 and 50 GeV and assuming a dark-matter mass of 1 GeV and unitary coupling. Constraints on colour- charged scalar simplified models are also presented. Assuming a dark-matter particle mass of 35 GeV, mediator particles with mass below 1.1 TeV are excluded for couplings yielding a dark-matter relic density consistent with measurements
