By assuming that $Y(4260)$ is a $D_1\bar D$ molecular state, we investigate some hidden-charm and charmed pair decay channels of $Y(4260)$ via intermediate $D_1\bar D$ meson loops with an effective Lagrangian approach. Through investigating…

Motivated by the observed $P_{\psi s}^{\Lambda}(4459)/P_{\psi s}^{\Lambda}(4338)$ and $T_{cc}(3875)^+$ states as the $\Xi_c \bar D^{*}/\Xi_c \bar D$ and $DD^{*}$ molecular candidates, respectively, in this work we investigate the…

I comment on a paper by Christoph Hanhart and Alexey Nefediev, published in Phys. Rev. D 106, 114003 (2022). The authors discuss the interpretation of mesons close to their lowest decay threshold and present a mechanism for the formation of…

The effects of the $\Sigma_c\bar{D}^*$-$\Lambda_{c}(2595)\bar{D}$ coupled-channel dynamics and various one-boson-exchange (OBE) forces for the LHCb pentaquark states, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$, are reinvestigated. Both the pion and…

The experimental status of the excited $D_s^+$ mesons is reviewed with particular emphasis on the most recent findings related to the $D^*_{s1}(2860)$ and $D^*_{s3}(2860)$ resonances. It is shown that the list of experimental results…

Following the recent confirmation of the Z+(4430) resonance with J^{PG}=1^{++}, we have re-examined the model of S- and P-wave tetraquarks. We propose a `type-II' diquark-antidiquark model which shows to be very effective at producing a…

A search for the Z(3930) resonance in gamma gamma production of the DDbar system has been performed using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 384 fb^-1 recorded by the BABAR experiment at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy…

In this work, we adopt the one-boson-exchange model to study the $Y_cK^{(*)} (Y_c=\Lambda_c, \Sigma_c)$ interactions. After considering both of the $S-D$ wave mixing effects and the coupled channel effects, we can predict several possible…

We discuss a possible interpretation of the Ds1(2460) meson as a hadronic molecule - a bound state of D* and K mesons. Using a phenomenological Lagrangian approach we determine the strong Ds1 to Ds* pi0 and radiative Ds1 to Ds gamma decays.…

Inspired by the experimental discoveries of $T_{cc}$, $\Sigma_c(2800)$, and $\Lambda_c(2940)$ and the theoretical picture where they are $DD^*$, $DN$, and $D^*N$ molecular candidates, we investigate the double charm heptaquark system of…

In this work, we explore a systematic investigation on $S$-wave interactions between a doubly charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}(3621)$ and a charmed meson in a $T$ doublet $(D_1,\,D_2^*)$. We first analyze the possibility for forming…

We investigate the existence of the three-body molecular state composed of $DD^*\bar{K}^*$ within the one-boson-exchange (OBE) model. A major challenge is that while the pseudoscalar-meson couplings are well-determined, the couplings for…

In this work the $B\bar{B}^*/D\bar{D}^*$ system is studied in the Bethe-Salpeter approach with quasipotential approximation. In our calculation both direct and cross diagrams are included in the one-boson-exchange potential. The numerical…

Using the QCD sum rules we test if the new narrow structure, the X(4350) recently observed by the Belle Collaboration, can be described as a $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ exotic $D_s^*D_{s0}^*$ molecular state. We consider the contributions of…

The recently discovered $T_{cc}^+$ is evaluated as a $DD^*$ molecular structure in the $J^P=1^+$ sector. A coupled-channels calculation in charged basis, considering the $D^0D^{*\,+}$, $D^+D^{*\,0}$ and $D^{*\,0}D^{*\,+}$ channels, is done…

We have used QCD sum rules to study the newly observed charged state $Z_c(4025)$ as a hidden-charm $D^*\bar D^*$ molecular state with the quantum numbers $I^G(J^{P})=1^+(1^{+})$. Using a $D^*\bar D^*$ molecular interpolating current, we…

A new baryonic state $\Lambda_{c}(2940)^{+}$ has recently been discovered by the Babar collaboration in the $D^{0}p$ channel. Later Belle collaboration also observed this state in the $\Sigma_c(2455)^{0,++} \pi^{\pm}\to…

The structure of the tetraquark candidate $Z_{c}(3900)$, which was experimentally reported in $e^+ e^-$ collisions, is studied by the s-wave meson-meson coupled-channel scattering on the lattice. The s-wave interactions among the $\pi…

We start from a recently favored picture in which the $\Lambda_c(2940)$ and $\Lambda_c(2910)$ correspond mostly to $ND^*$ bound states with $J^P = 1/2^-,\, 3/2^-$ and then add a $D$ as a third particle, looking for the possible binding of…

A central question in exotic-hadron physics is their internal structure whether these states are loosely bound hadronic molecules or compact multiquark configurations. To shed light on this issue, we develop a model that incorporates mixing…
