We discuss how the latest data on X(3872) in B and B_s decays speak about its tetraquark nature. The established decay pattern, including the up to date observations by CMS, are explained by the mixing of two quasi-degenerate, unresolvable,…
Decays of X(3872) and its partners as hidden-charm axial-vector tetra-quark mesons are studied. As the result, it is seen that the iso-triplet partners of X(3872) can be broad, and therefore, higher statistics would be needed to find them.
In relation to the newly observed bottom-strange X^{+,-}(5568) mesons, we revisit our tetra-quark interpretation of X(3872) and Z_c(3900). It is discussed that our assignment of X^{+,-}(5568) to charged components of iso-triplet bottom…
We explore the consequences of treating the X(3872) meson as a tetraquark bound state. As dynamical framework we employ a relativistic constituent quark model which includes infrared confinement in an effective way. We calculate the decay…
We systematically construct all the tetraquark currents of $J^{PC} = 1^{++}$ with the quark configurations $[cq][\bar c \bar q]$, $[\bar c q][\bar q c]$, and $[\bar c c][\bar q q]$ ($q=u/d$). Their relations are derived using the Fierz…
In this work, we take the $X(3872)$ as the hidden-charm tetraquark state with both isospin $I=0$ and $1$ components, then investigate the strong decays $X(3872)\to J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$, $J/\psi\omega$, $\chi_{c1}\pi^0$, $D^{*0}\bar{D}^0$ and…
New data for X(3872) production in B decays provide a separation between X production and decay, sharpen several experimental puzzles and impose serious constraints on all models. Both charged and neutral B decays produce a narrow neutral…
Decay properties of hidden-strangeness partners of X(3872) are studied in tetra-quark pictures. As the results, it is seen that their decay properties are strongly model dependent, and therefore, experimental studies of them will select a…
We further explore the consequences of treating the X(3872) meson as a tetraquark bound state by analyzing its one-photon decay X => \gamma + J/psi in the framework of our approach developed in previous papers which incorporates quark…
We present a quark model calculation of the charmonium spectrum with self energy corrections due to the coupling to the meson-meson continuum. The bare masses used in the calculation are computed within the relativized quark model by…
It has been suggested that the radiative $X \to D \bar D \gamma$ decay modes are useful to shed light on the structure of the meson X(3872), since the ratio $ R={\Gamma(X \to D^+ D^- \gamma) \over \Gamma(X \to D^0 \bar D^0 \gamma)}$ is…
It is pointed out that in the decays $X(3872) \to D {\bar D} \gamma$ the possible `molecular' component of the X(3872) should give rise essentially only to a $D^0 {\bar D}^0 \gamma$ final state with a predictable spectrum, and should yield…
In this article, we test the nature of X(3872), which is assumed to be a P-wave $[cq]$-scalar-diquark $[\bar{c}\bar{q}]$-axial-vector-antidiquark tetraquark state with $J^{P}=2^{-}$. The interpolating current representing the $J^{P}=2^{-}$…
Recent results by BELLE and BaBar point to the existence of a second X particle decaying in D^0 D^0bar pi^0, a few MeV above the X(3872). We identify the two X states with the neutral particles predicted by the 4-quark model and show that…
The molecule and the tetraquark model are the two competing interpretations of the X(3872). I will briefly comment on how far these two pictures are really resolvable by the experiment, and I will give a concise account on a new method for…
The BaBar analysis which favours $2^{-+}$ quantum numbers for the X(3872) implies that it may be none other than the 1D2 charmonia state. In that case the isospin breaking in closed flavour modes may be the result of re-scattering from open…
In the X(3872) decay, both of the J/\psi\pi\pi\ and J/\psi\pi\pi\pi\ branching fractions are observed experimentally, and their sizes are comparable to each other. In order to clarify the mechanism to cause such a large isospin violation,…
New spectroscopy from the B factories, the advent of CLEO-c and the BES upgrade renewed the interest in charmonia. Among the new measurements, the state X(3872) has received special attention due to its unexpected properties. Its structure…
