We have determined the production cross sections of the $X(3872)$ state in the reactions $\bar D D\to\pi X$, $\bar D^* D\to \pi X$ and $\bar D^* D^*\to\pi X$, information which is useful for studies of the $X(3872)$ meson abundance in heavy…

We discuss the interaction of an open heavy meson ($\bar{D}$ and $\bar{D}^{\ast}$ for charm or $B$ and $B^{\ast}$ for bottom) and a nucleon ($N$) by considering the $\pi$, $\sigma$, $\rho$, and $\omega$ exchange potentials. We construct a…

Radiative decays of X(3872) with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ are studied in the coupled-channel approach, where the $c\bar c$ states are described by relativistic string Hamiltonian, while for the decay channels $DD^*$ a string breaking mechanism is…

S and P wave $D\bar{D}$ scatterings are studied in a meson exchange model with the coupling constants obtained in the heavy quark effective theory. With the extracted P wave phase shifts and the separable potential approximation, we include…

We re-examine the re-scattering mechanism for the X(3872), as a candidate for the 2P charmonium state $\chi_{c1}(2P)$, decaying to $J/\psi\rho(\omega)$ through exchanging $D^{(*)}$ mesons between intermediate states $D(\bar{D})$ and…

It has been proposed recently (Phys. Rev. Lett. 115 (2015), 022001) that the charmoniumlike state named X(3915) and suggested to be a $0^{++}$ scalar, is just the helicity-0 realisation of the $2^{++}$ tensor state $\chi_{c2}(3930)$. This…

In this work, we investigate the $S$- and $P$-wave interactions of the $D\bar{D}^*$ system within the framework of the quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation, with the aim of exploring possible molecular states and their corresponding pole…

We suggest that the observed properties of the charmoniumlike resonance $X(3915)$ can possibly be explained if it is an $S-$wave molecular bound state of $D_s \bar D_s$ meson pair with binding energy about 18\,MeV. In particular, the decays…

Inspired by the observation of the $P_{cs} (4459)$ state by LHCb recently, we reexamine the results of the interaction of the $J/\psi \Lambda$ channel with its coupled channels, exploiting the coupled channel unitary approach combined with…

We explore the quark-mass dependence of the pole position of the X(3872) state within the molecular picture. The calculations are performed within the framework of a nonrelativistic Faddeev-type three-body equation for the $D\bar{D}\pi$…

We propose stable exotic nuclei bound with $\bar{D}$ and $B$ mesons with respecting heavy quark symmetry. We indicate that an approximate degeneracy of $\bar{D}$($B$) and $\bar{D}^{*}$($B^{*}$) mesons plays an important role, and discuss…

Two iso-singlet hadron states $X_0(2900)$ and $X_1(2900)$ with $J=0$ and 1 respectively, discovered by the LHCb collaboration in 2020, were identified as molecular bound states of $\bar D^*K^*$. Recently two structures $T^a_{cs0}(2900)^0$…

Starting from 2003, a large number of the so-called exotic hadrons, such as $X(3872)$ and $D_{s0}^*(2317)$, were discovered experimentally. Since then, understanding the nature of these states has been a central issue both theoretically and…

We consider the $X(3872)$ resonance as a $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ $D\bar D^*$ hadronic molecule. According to heavy quark spin symmetry, there will exist a partner with quantum numbers $2^{++}$, $X_{2}$, which would be a $D^*\bar D^*$ loosely bound…

We discuss the possibilities of producing the X(3872), which is assumed to be a D \bar D^* bound state, in radiative decays of charmonia. We argue that the ideal energy regions to observe the X(3872) associated with a photon in e^+e^-…
