Using $4.7~\rm fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data at center-of-mass energies from 4.661 to 4.951 GeV collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we observe the $X(3872)$ production process $e^{+}e^{-}\to\omega X(3872)$ for the…

A search for the rare decays $B_s^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-\mu^+\mu^-$ and $B^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-\mu^+\mu^-$ is performed in a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb detector in proton-proton…

We re-analyse the two- and three-pion mass distributions in the decays X(3872)->rho J/psi and X(3872)->omega J/psi and argue that the present data favour the 1++ assignment for the quantum numbers of the X.

A recent quark-model description of X(3872) as an unquenched $2\,{}^{3\!}P_1$ $c\bar{c}$ state is generalised by now including all relevant meson-meson configurations, in order to calculate the widths of the experimentally observed…

Contrary to almost standard opinion that the X(3872) resonance is the D^{*0}\bar D^0+c.c. molecule or the qc\bar q\bar c four-quark state, we discuss the scenario where the X(3872)resonance is the c\bar c = \chi_{c1}(2P) charmonium which…

Color-suppressed decays of $B$ mesons to final states with $\psi(2S)$ mesons have been observed with the CLEO detector. The branching fractions for the decays $B^+ \to \psi(2S) K^+$, $B^+ \to \psi(2S) K^*(892)^+$, $B^0 \to \psi(2S) K^0$,…

We present results and prospects for searches for rare B and D meson decays with final state dimuons, including B_s\to\mu\mu, B_d\to\mu\mu, and D\to\mu\mu. Upper limits on the branching fractions are compared to previous CDF measurements,…

The recently BaBar results raise the possibility that X(3872) has negative parity. This makes people reconsider assigning X(3872) to the $1{^1D_2}(c\bar c)$ state. In this paper we give a general form of the wave function of $2^{-+}$…

It is pointed out that dipion invariant mass spectrum in $X (3872) \to \pi \pi J/\psi$ is a useful probe for the $J^{PC}$ quantum number of the X(3872), complementary to the angular distributions. If X(3872) is a $^1 P_1$ state, the dipion…

It has been suggested that the radiative $X \to D \bar D \gamma$ decay modes are useful to shed light on the structure of the meson X(3872), since the ratio $ R={\Gamma(X \to D^+ D^- \gamma) \over \Gamma(X \to D^0 \bar D^0 \gamma)}$ is…

We re-examine the re-scattering mechanism for the X(3872), as a candidate for the 2P charmonium state $\chi_{c1}(2P)$, decaying to $J/\psi\rho(\omega)$ through exchanging $D^{(*)}$ mesons between intermediate states $D(\bar{D})$ and…

The decays of the X(3872) to P-wave quarkonia are calculated under the assumption that it is a shallow bound state of neutral charmed mesons. The X(3872) is described using an effective theory of nonrelativistic D mesons and pions (X-EFT).…

I report results on the X(3872) from the Tevatron. Mass and other properties have been studied, with a focus on new results on the dipion mass spectrum in X -> J/PsiPi^+Pi^- decays. Dipions favor interpreting the decay as J/PsiRho, implying…
