The measurements of J/psi decays into photon, proton and antiproton show a strong enhancement at the proton-antiproton threshold not seen in the decays into neutral pion, proton and antiproton. What is the nature of this enhancement? A…

By solving the Lippmann-Schwinger equation, possible hadronic molecules in the $D^*\bar K$-$D\bar K^*$ coupled-channel system are investigated with the one-meson exchange potentials, where both vector and pseudoscalar mesons are considered…

We investigate the role played by the three-body $D\bar{D}\pi$ dynamics on the near-threshold resonance X(3872) charmonium state, which is assumed to be formed by nonperturbative $D\bar D^*$ dynamics. It is demonstrated that, as compared to…

Many mesons with properties incompatible with a $\bar cc$ structure have already been discovered, e.g. the $Z_c$ mesons with isospin 1. We investigate the spectrum of exotic charmonium-like mesons using lattice QCD. The focus is on $\bar cc…

We investigate near-threshold $J/\psi$ photoproduction off the nucleon, focusing on hadronic rescattering effects induced by open-charm meson-baryon intermediate states. Beyond the conventional Pomeron-exchange mechanism, the $\bar…

In charmed $D$ and $D_s$ mesons sector, the matrix of a Hamiltonian in a quark potential model is computed in the $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ subspace. The masses of four mixed states of $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ denoted with $D^*_1(2635)$,…

We study the properties of the $X(1880)$, the structure around the $\bar{p}p$ threshold that appears in the $3(\pi^+\pi^-)$ invariant mass spectrum in the decay process of $J/\psi \to \gamma 3(\pi^+\pi^-)$. Nucleon-antinucleon rescattering…

Very recently it was predicted the existence of a charged state near the $D_s\bar{D}^*/D^*_s\bar{D}$ threshold. This state, that we call $Z_{cs}^+$, would be the strange partner of the recently observed $Z_c^\pm(3900)$. Using standard…

Coupled-channel $\pi K$ and $\eta K$ scattering amplitudes are determined by studying the finite-volume energy spectra obtained from dynamical lattice QCD calculations. Using a large basis of interpolating operators, including both those…

The $\Lambda p$ interaction close to the $\Sigma N$ threshold is considered. Specifically, the pronounced structure seen in production reactions like $K^-d \to \pi^- \Lambda p$ and $pp\to K^+ \Lambda p$ around the $\Sigma N$ threshold is…

We study the $DDK$ system in a coupled channel approach, by including $DD_s\eta$ and $DD_s\pi$, and find that the dynamics involved in the system forms a bound state with isospin $1/2$ and mass $4140$ MeV when one of the $DK$ pair is…

The $D \bar{D}^*$ interaction via a $\rho$ or $\omega$ exchange is constructed within an extended hidden gauge symmetry approach, where the strange quark is replaced by the charm quark in the $SU(3)$ flavor space. With this $D \bar{D}^*$…

Positive parity meson states D*_{s0}(2317) and D_{s1}(2460) have masses slightly below the DK threshold. Therefore, both states can strongly decay only into isospin violating decays D_{s1}(2460) --> Ds \pi \pi, D_{s1}(2460) --> Ds* \pi 0…

Whether the much studied X(3872) is an axial or tensor resonance makes an important difference to its interpretation. A recent paper by the BaBar collaboration raised the viable hypothesis that it might be a 2-+ state based on the 3 pions…

The recent observation of B^0_d->\pi^0\pi^0 and \bar{B}^0_d->\pi^0\pi^0 decay modes allows us to make a fresh isospin analysis of B->\pi\pi transitions. We find that current experimental data can impose some model-independent constraints on…
