The Belle Collaboration recently discovered the first manifestly exotic meson: Z^+(4430), which decays into psi' pi^+ and therefore has quark content c c-bar u d-bar. The proximity of its mass to the D_1 D-bar^* threshold has motivated the…
We study the possibility that the $Z^+(4430)$ state observed by Belle is a $D_1D^*$ (or $D_1'D^*$) resonance in S-wave. Focusing on its decays, We find that the open-charm decay into $D^*D^*\pi$ is dominant. Furthermore, we use the…
In a previous paper we suggested an explanation for the peak designated as $Z(4430)^+$ in the $\psi^\prime\pi^+$ mass spectrum, observed by Belle in ${\bar{\!B}} \to {\psi^\prime} \pi^+ K$ decays, as an effect of $\bar{\!D}{}^{\,*0}D^{\,+}…
We investigated the bound state problem of the S wave charged $D_1 \bar{D}^*$ ($D_1' \bar{D}^*$) system in a chiral quark model by solving the resonating group method equation. Our preliminary study does not favor the molecular assumption…
We discuss exotic states X(3872) and $Z^+(4430)$, observed recently in experiment Belle. The QCD-string based explanation is suggested.
The Z^+(4430) observed by Belle is explained naturally as a threshold cusp in the D*(2010)Dbar_1(2420) system.
Several charmonium-like states above $D\bar{D}$ threshold have been discovered at the Belle and BABAR B-factories. Some of these states are produced via Initial State Radiation (e.g. Y(4260) and Y(4350)), and some are observed in B-meson…
Since $Z^+(4430)$ lies very close to the threshold of $D^\ast{\bar D}_1$, we investigate whether $Z^+(4430)$ could be a loosely bound S-wave state of $D^\ast{\bar D}_1$ or $D^\ast{\bar D}^\prime_1$ with $J^P=0^-, 1^-, 2^-$, i.e., a…
Resonant structures in $B^0\to\psi'\pi^-K^+$ decays are analyzed by performing a four-dimensional fit of the decay amplitude, using $pp$ collision data corresponding to $\rm 3 fb^{-1}$ collected with the LHCb detector. The data cannot be…
Recently, Belle Collaboration has reported a resonant state produced in $B\to K \pi\psi'$, which is called Z(4430). This state is charged, so it can not be interpreted as an ordinary charmonium state. In this paper, we analyze the octet to…
We present the results of an amplitude analysis of anti-B0 -> J/psi K- pi+ decays. A new charged charmoniumlike state Zc(4200)+ decaying to J/psi pi+ is observed with a significance of 6.2 sigma. The mass and width of the Zc(4200)+ are 4196…
Motivated by the LHCb's recent confirmation of $Z_1(4475)$ as the $J^P=1^+$ resonance, we investigate various exotic interpretations of $Z_1(4475)$, which may be an axial vector tetraquark state, the P-wave excitation of the S-wave $D_1…
$Z_c(4430)$ discovered by the Belle and confirmed by the LHCb in $\bar{B}^0\to\psi(2S)K^-\pi^+$ is generally considered to be a charged charmonium-like state that includes minimally two quarks and two antiquarks. $Z_c(4200)$ found in…
Inspired by the great progress in the observations of charmonium-like states in recent years, we perform a systematic analysis about the ground states and the first radially excited states of $qc\bar{q}\bar{c}$ ($q$=$u/d$ and $s$)…
We study the $Z^\pm(4430)$ meson within a heavy hadron molecule interpretation where the $Z$ is considered as a bound state of a vector $D^\ast(2010)$ and an axial-vector $D_1(2420)$. We give predictions for the strong hidden-charm…
We examine the four-quark structure of the recently discovered charged $Z_c(3900)$, $Z(4430)$, and $X_b(5568)$ states. We calculate the widths of the strong decays $Z_c^+ \to J/\psi \pi^+$ ($\eta_c\rho^+$, $\bar D^0D^{\ast\,+}$, $\bar…
Recently, several charmonium-like states above $D\bar{D}$ threshold have been discovered at the BELLE and BABAR $B$-factories. Some of these states are produced via Initial State Radiation ({\it e.g.} Y(4260) and Y(4350)) and some are…
We propose an explanation of the new resonances observed in $D_s^{(*)+} \pi^0$ decays. We suggest that the data can be explained by the mixing of conventional p-wave excited $D_s^+$ mesons with 4-quark states. The narrow states observed in…
