The hidden-charm decays serve as irreplaceable platforms for probing the structures of charmonium-like states, such as $X(3872)$, $Y(4260)$, $Z_c(3900)$, and their heavy-quark-symmetry partners. In the hadronic molecular scenario, these…

An analysis including most recent Belle data on X(3872) is performed, using coupled channel Flatt\'e formula. A third sheet pole close to but \textit{below} $D^0D^{*0}$ threshold is found, besides the bound state/virtual state pole…

In the framework of the one-boson-exchange model, we have studied the interaction of the $B^*\bar{B}$ and $B^*\bar{B}^{*}$ system. After considering the S-wave and D-wave mixing, we notice that both $Z_b(10610)^\pm$ and $Z_b(10650)^\pm$ can…

The $X(3872)$ is investigated by employing the quark-hadron hybrid model, that consists of the $c\bar c$ core, $D^{(*)}\bar D{}^*$, $J/\psi\omega$, and $J/\psi\rho$ two-meson states. Due to the attraction from the $c\bar c$-$D\bar D{}^*$…

After discussing the various possible interpretations of the Y(4143) signal observed by the CDF collaboration in the $J/\psi \phi$ mode, we tend to conclude that Y(4143) is probably a $D_s^\ast {\bar D}_s^\ast$ molecular state with…

We perform a simultaneous fit to BESIII data on $e^+e^-\to \gamma (D^0{\bar{D}^{0}}\pi^0/J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-)$ and LHCb data on $B^+\to K^+(J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-)$ to precisely determine the properties of the $X(3872)$, with full consideration of…

The present day experimental data on the $X(3872)$ decays do not allow to make clear conclusions on the dominating structure of this state. We discuss here an alternative way to study its structure by means of the two-step $\bar D^*$ (or…

The BaBar analysis which favours $2^{-+}$ quantum numbers for the X(3872) implies that it may be none other than the 1D2 charmonia state. In that case the isospin breaking in closed flavour modes may be the result of re-scattering from open…

Right since its discovery in 2003 by the Belle collaboration, establishing the nature of the $X(3872)$ meson has been one of the main priorities in the field of quarkonium physics. Not qualifying as a conventional $c\bar{c}$ state, the…

The possible neutral $D^{(*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$ and $B^{(*)}\bar{B}^{(*)}$ molecular states are studied in the framework of the constituent quark models, which is extended by including the $s$-channel one gluon exchange. Using different types…

Inspired by the recent findings of $Z_{cs}$ and $P_{cs}$ states, we investigate the strong interactions of the systems with open strangeness(es) from the light sector to the heavy sector (no beauty quark), where the interaction potential is…

A recent analysis of the LHCb data [Phys. Rev. D 105 (2022) L031503] obtained a sizable negative effective range for the $X(3872)$. This has attracted intensive discussions on whether $X(3872)$ can be deemed as a $D\bar{D}^*$ molecular…

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…

Using the potentials derived from vector-meson-exchanges, the $K\bar K$, $DK$, $B\bar K$, $D\bar D$, $B\bar B$, $BD$, $\bar D K$, $BK$ and $B\bar D$ systems are studied. Possible S-wave bound-states of two pseudoscalar mesons are discussed.…

Results obtained by various experiments show that the $D_{s0}^{\ast}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ mesons are very narrow states located below the $DK$ and $D^{\ast}K$ thresholds, respectively. This is markedly in contrast with the expectations…

We analyze the recent data from the BESIII collaboration on the $X(3872)$ state in the $J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-$ and $D^0\bar{D}^0\pi^0$ decay channels. The quantum number and mass of the $X(3872)$ state allow us to exploit the universal feature…

We use QCD sum rules to study the possible existence of a $D_s\bar{D}^*+ D_s^*\bar{D}$ molecule with the quantum number $J^P=1^+$. We consider the contributions of condensates up to dimension eight and work at leading order in $\alpha_s$.…

A survey of the experimental, phenomenological, and theoretical status of the new heavy mesons is presented. States discussed are the $B_c$, $h_c$, $\eta_c'$, $D_s(2317)$, $D_s(2460)$, X(3872), X(3940), Y(3940), Z(3930), and Y(4260). Quark…

We construct line shapes for the X(3872) that generalize the Flatte and zero-range line shapes that have been considered previously. These line shapes are associated with scattering amplitudes that are exactly unitary for real values of the…

The $\Delta\Delta$ dibaryon resonance $d^\ast (2380)$ with $(J^P, I)=(3^+, 0)$ is studied theoretically on the basis of the 3-flavor lattice QCD simulation with heavy pion masses ($m_\pi =679, 841$ and $1018$ MeV). By using the HAL QCD…
