One of the key challenges for nuclear physics today is to understand from first principles the effective interaction between hadrons with different quark content. First successes have been achieved using techniques that solve the dynamics of quarks and gluons on discrete space-time lattices. Experimentally, the dynamics of the strong interaction have been studied by scattering hadrons off each other. Such scattering experiments are difficult or impossible for unstable hadrons and so high-quality measurements exist only for hadrons containing up and down quarks. Here we demonstrate that measuring correlations in the momentum space between hadron pairs produced in ultrarelativistic proton-proton collisions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) provides a precise method with which to obtain the missing information on the interaction dynamics between any pair of unstable hadrons. Specifically, we discuss the case of the interaction of baryons containing strange quarks (hyperons). We demonstrate how, using precision measurements of p-omega baryon correlations, the effect of the strong interaction for this hadron-hadron pair can be studied with precision similar to, and compared with, predictions from lattice calculations. The large number of hyperons identified in proton-proton collisions at the LHC, together with an accurate modelling of the small (approximately one femtometre) inter-particle distance and exact predictions for the correlation functions, enables a detailed determination of the short-range part of the nucleon-hyperon interaction.

Quantum interference effects enhanced in $\pi^+p$ femtoscopic correlation functions
The π⁺p correlation peak near 140 MeV/c arises from quantum interference of incident and scattered waves, while the Δ decay peaks near 220 MeV/c; their m_T-dependent mix explains the ALICE peak shift.

Probing the structure of the $D_{s 0}^*(2317)$ and $X(3872)$ states through correlation functions
Femtoscopic correlation functions for D0K+ and D0Dbar*0 pairs are predicted to be sensitive to the molecular versus bare-state composition of D_s0*(2317) and X(3872).

From hyperon--nucleon interactions to deuteron--hyperon femtoscopy
Folded HAL-QCD potentials yield no dY bound states but a large dΛ scattering length and strong low-k correlation enhancement, with feed-down from Σ and Ξ clearly reshaping the observed dΛ signal.

Adressing the p{\Omega}- interaction and di-baryonic states via femtoscopy
Fitting published femtoscopy data to a meson-exchange potential gives a short-range coupling that, under the inelastic spin-channel scenario, supports a pΩ bound state with binding energy near 0.5 MeV.

Off-shell ambiguities in correlation functions: strategies to minimize them
For meson-baryon pairs tied to the N*(1535), off-shell ambiguities change correlation functions by only 2-3% in chiral models, and can be partly absorbed by adjusting the source size.

Decay constants of the two-pole $D_0^*(2300)$
Molecular two-pole D0*(2300) decay constants are 65 and 81 MeV—much smaller than compact c¯q estimates—and imply Cabibbo-favored b-hadron branching fractions of order 10^{-5}.
