The very recently observed $D^{\ast}_{sJ}(2463)$ meson is described as a $J^{P}=1^{+}$ $c\bar{s}$ bound state in a unitarised meson model, owing its existence to the strong OZI-allowed $^{3}P_{0}$ coupling to the nearby $S$-wave $D^{\ast}K$…

The interpretation of Y(4140) as a $D^{*}_s\bar{D}^{*}_s$ molecule is studied dynamically in the one boson exchange approach, where $\sigma$, $\eta$ and $\phi$ exchange are included. Ten allowed $D^{*}_s\bar{D}^{*}_s$ states with low spin…

We investigate the possibility of deuteron-like $\Sigma_c^*\bar{\Sigma}$ bound states within the one-boson-exchange model and systematically analyze the effects of the contact-range $\delta^{3}(\vec{r}\,)$ potential, the tensor term from…

We analyze how the renowned X(3872), a weakly bound state right below the $D \bar D^*$ threshold, should effectively be included in a hadronic representation of the QCD partition function. This can be decided by analyzing the $D \bar D^*$…

We study heavy baryons with exotic flavor quantum numbers formed by a heavy meson and a nucleon (DbarN and BN) with positive parity. One pion exchange interaction, providing a tensor force, dominates as a long range force to bind the DbarN…

We study the possible heavy molecular states composed of a pair of charm mesons in the H and S doublets. Since the P-wave charm-strange mesons $D_{s0}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ are extremely narrow, the future experimental observation of…

Two decades after its unexpected discovery, the properties of the $X(3872)$ exotic resonance are still under intense scrutiny. In particular, there are doubts about its nature as an ensemble of mesons or having any other internal structure.…

We study here the interaction of $D \bar D^*$ in the isospin $I=1$ channel in the light of recent theoretical advances that allow to combine elements of the local hidden gauge approach with heavy quark spin symmetry. We find that the…

We discuss selected and important features of hadronic molecules as one of promising forms of exotic hadrons near thresholds. Using examples of $D \bar D^*$ systems such as $X(3872)$ and $Z_c$, emphasis is put on the roles of the one pion…

Stimulated by the $P_{cs}(4459)$ reported by the LHCb Collaboration, we perform a single $\Xi_c\bar{D}^*$ channel and a coupled $\Xi_c\bar{D}^*/\Xi_c^*\bar{D}/\Xi_c^{\prime}\bar{D}^*/\Xi_c^*\bar{D}^*$ channel analysis by using a…

Within the framework of the local hidden gauge approach, we have studied the near-threshold interaction of the $D^* \bar{D}^*$ channel with quantum numbers $I(J^{PC}) = 0(0^{++})$, $0(2^{++})$, $1(0^{++})$, and $1(2^{++})$, respectively.…

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…

In 2019, two new structures $\Lambda_b(6146)$ and $\Lambda_b(6152)$ were observed by the LHCb Collaboration at the invariant mass spectrum of $\Lambda_b^0\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$, which aroused a hot discussion about their inner structures. The…

In 2012, we investigated the possible molecular states composed of two charmed mesons [Phys.Rev. D 88, 114008 (2013), arXiv:1211.5007 [hep-ph](2012)]. The $D^*D$ system with the quantum numbers of $I(J^P)=0(1^+)$ was found to be a good…

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 $T^a_{cs0}(2900)^0$…

We study theoretically the $BD\bar{D}$ and $BDD$ systems to see if they allow for possible bound or resonant states. The three-body interaction is evaluated implementing the Fixed Center Approximation to the Faddeev equations which…

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 $D\bar{D}\pi$…

The properties of the resonance X(3872) are discussed under the assumption that this resonance is dominantly a `molecular' $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ state of neutral $D$ and $D^*$ mesons. It is argued that in these properties should dominate the…

In this work, the $K\bar{K}^*$ interaction is studied in a quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation approach combined with the one-boson-exchange model. With the help of the hidden-gauge Lagrangian, the exchanges of pseudoscalar mesons ($\pi$…

We discuss methods and approaches to the description of molecular states in the spectrum of heavy quarks and investigate in detail various properties of the exotic charmonium-like state X(3872) in the framework of the mesonic molecule…
