Abstract

We report the observation of two resonance-like structures in the π+χc1\pi^+ \chi_{c1} invariant mass distribution near 4.1 GeV in exclusive BKπ+χc1B\to K\pi^+\chi_{c1} decays. A detailed Dalitz-plot analysis demonstrates that these structures cannot be produced by reflections from any known and possibly unknown resonances in the KπK\pi channel. If these two peaks are produced by resonances in the π+χc1\pi^+\chi_{c1} channel, their minimal quark structure would have to be a ccˉudˉc\bar{c}u\bar{d} tetraquark arrangement, similar to that proposed for the Z+(4430)Z^+(4430) structure reported by Belle last year in the π+ψ\pi^+\psi^{'} mass distribution produced in BKπ+ψB\to K\pi^+\psi^{'} decays. In addition, we report some new measurements on the properties of the X(3872) meson and the 11^{--} YY states that are produced with initial state radiation. %and also other latest XYZ results. The analyses are based on a large data sample recorded at the Υ(4S)\Upsilon(4S) resonances and nearby continuum with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+ee^+e^- collider.
