In this talk we present some recent studies of multiquark components in the charmonium sector. We study the possible existence of compact four quark-states and meson-meson molecules in the charmonium spectroscopy.
Focusing on recent measurement of $B^+ \to D_s^+D_s^-K^+$ process given by the LHCb Collaboration, we propose that this newly observed near the $D_s^+D_s^-$ threshold enhancement can be due to the contribution of the $\chi_{c0}(2P)$, which…

During the last few years there has been a renaissance in charm and charmonium spectroscopy with higher precision measurements at the $\psi^{'}$ and $\psi(3770)$ coming from BESII and CLEOc and many new discoveries coming from B-factories.…
Mass spectrum of charmonium is computed in the framework of potential non-relativistic quantum chromodynamics. \textit{O}$(1/m)$ and \textit{O}$(1/m^2)$ relativistic corrections to the Cornell potential and spin-dependent potential have…
We present our most recent results on the charmonium spectrum using relativistic Wilson fermions. We study the dependence of the spectrum on the charm quark mass and the Wohlert-Sheikholeslami improvement term.
We discuss possible options for interpreting the newly observed state Y(4140) by the CDF collaboration in $B^+\to J/\psi\phi K^+$ decay above the $J/\psi\phi$ threshold, and argue that it is more likely to be a $D_s^*$-$D_s^*$ molecular…

Combining the recently available experimental evidence of D-Dbar mixing, we extract model-independent information on the mixing amplitude and on its CP-violating phase. Using this information, we present new constraints on the flavour…
We compute charmonium spectral functions in 2-flavor QCD on anisotropic lattices using the maximum entropy method. Our results suggest that the S-waves (J/psi and eta_c) survive up to temperatures close to 2Tc, while the P-waves (chi_c0 and…
We present a calculation of the spectrum of low-lying D and D_s mesons calculated on 2+1 flavor configurations with Clover-Wilson quarks generated by the PACS-CS collaboration. S- and P-wave states are explored for pion masses down to…
The charmonium system has several excited states below the energy threshold for decay into $D$ and $\bar{D}$ mesons, which can in principle be studied accurately in lattice QCD. Studies that include many states in the spectrum have…
We review hadron spectroscopy at BABAR with emphasis on recent results from the studies of the X(3872) state, inclusive charmonia on recoil, double charmonium production, and the broad structure observed at around 4.26 GeV/c^2. These…
The lowest-lying charmonium-like tetraquarks $c\bar{c}q\bar{q}$ $(q=u,\,d)$ and $c\bar{c}s\bar{s}$, with spin-parity $J^P=0^+$, $1^+$ and $2^+$, and isospin $I=0$ and $1$, are systematically investigated within the theoretical framework of…
In this work, we investigate the open-charm decay process $\psi\to\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ via the hadronic loop mechanism for vector charmonia above $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ threshold. The branching ratios of these vector charmonium…

We study the charmonium properties at finite temperature using quenched lattice QCD simulations. Although a simple potential model analysis indicates no bound state at $T>1.05T_c$, our analyses of the spatial correlation between quark and…
Experimentally the charmonium hyperfine splitting is $M_{J/\psi}-M_{\eta_c}=117$ MeV and current lattice results are generally below this value. The difference could be due to the effects of the disconnected flavor singlet diagrams which…
