We discuss two processes, the $\pi N \to e^+e^- N$ and the $\gamma N \to e^+e^- N$ reactions, below and close to the vector meson production threshold ($1.40<\sqrt s <1.75$ GeV). The aim is to gain understanding of the coupling of vector…
It is argued that the charged $Z^+_c(3885)$ resonance, treated as a `molecular' state of charmed $D$ and $D^*$ mesons, is likely to consist of two peaks unequally coupled to the $D^{*+} \bar D^0$ and $D^+ \bar D^{*0}$ channels. The peaks…
A combined analysis of the published data on the pp -> dK+K0bar reaction at excess energies of 47.4 MeV and 104.7 MeV is presented. Evidence is found for both the production of the a0+(980)scalar resonance and for a strong K0bar:d final…
Studies of $D{\bar D}$ correlations for a large sample of events containing fully and partially reconstructed pairs of charmed $D$ mesons recorded by the Fermilab photoproduction experiment FOCUS (FNAL-E831) are presented. Correlations…
We perform a study of the $D_s^+ \to a_0(980)(f_0(980)) e^+ \nu_e$ reactions investigating the different sources of isospin violation which make the production of the $a_0(980)$ possible. We find that loops involving kaons in the production…
High-quality cross sections for the reaction gamma+d->pi^0+d have been measured using the CLAS at Jefferson Lab over a wide energy range near and above the eta-meson photoproduction threshold. At backward c.m. angles for the outgoing pions,…
The production of a $D\bar D$ meson-pair in antiproton-proton ($\bar p p$) annihilation close to the production threshold is investigated, with special emphasis on the role played by the $\psi$(3770) resonance. The study is performed in a…
In this paper it is proposed that the charged charmonium-like state $Z_c(3900)$ is a resonance above the threshold from the $D\bar{D}^*$ interaction. The $D\bar{D}^*$ interaction is described by the one-boson exchange model with light meson…
Recently the HADES collaboration has published the invariant mass spectrum of $e^+e^-$ pairs, dN/dM$_{e^+e^-}$, produced in C+C collisions at 2 AGeV. Using electromagnetic probes, one hopes to get in this experiment information on hadron…
The reaction $e^+e^-\rightarrow \Lambda^+_c\bar\Lambda^-_c$ is investigated at energies close to the threshold with emphasis on the role played by the $X(4630)$ resonance. The interaction in the final $\Lambda^+_c \bar\Lambda^-_c$ system,…
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…
The reaction $p + d \rightarrow p + d + X$ was studied at 0.8-2.0 GeV proton beam energies with the ANKE magnetic spectrometer at the COSY synchrotron storage ring. The proton-deuteron pairs emerging with high momenta, 0.6-1.8 GeV/$c$, were…
We have performed a detailed study of dilepton production from pp collisions including the subthreshold $\rho$ production via baryonic resonances (N(1520), N(1700)) in addition to the conventional dilepton sources as $\pi^0, \eta, \omega$…
The BESIII Collaboration recently performed a precise measurement of the $e^+e^-\rightarrow D\bar{D}$ Born cross sections, and confirmed the $G(3900)$ structure reported by BaBar and Belle with high significance. We identify the $G(3900)$…
The recent observation of the X(2600) resonance by the BESIII Collaboration has motivated a renewed interest in the spectroscopy of light mesons, particularly pseudotensor states. However, a significant theoretical gap exists in the poorly…
The subject of the charged-to-neutral yield ratio for B{\bar B} and D{\bar D}pairs near their respective thresholds in e^+e^- annihilation is revisited. As previously argued for the B mesons, this ratio should exhibit a substantial…
We report the first observation of the $\psi(4415)$ resonance in the reaction $\e^+e^-\to D^0 D^-\pi^+$ and a measurement of its cross section in the center-of-mass energy range $4.0\mathrm{GeV}$ to $5.0\mathrm{GeV}$ with initial state…
We use recent data that show a narrow peak around $\sqrt{s}=2.37\ \text{GeV}$ in the $pn \to d \pi^+ \pi^-$ cross section, with about double strength at the peak than in the analogous $pn \to d \pi^0 \pi^0$ reaction, and, assuming that it…
