The X(3872) with quantum numbers J(PC) = 1(++) is considered as a composite hadronic state comprised of the dominant molecular D(0) D*(0) component and other hadronic pairs - D(+-) D*(-+), Jpsi omega and Jpsi rho. Applying the compositeness…

XEFT is a low energy effective theory for the X(3872) that can be used to systematically analyze the decay and production of the X(3872) meson, assuming that it is a weakly bound state of charmed mesons. In a previous paper, we calculated…

The exotic states $X(3872)$ and $Z_c(3900)$ have long been conjectured as isoscalar and isovector $\bar{D}^*D$ molecules. In this work, we first propose the triangle diagram mechanism to investigate their productions in $B$ decays as well…

Using the CLEOIII detector at CESR, we have measured the branching ratio of the decay Xic0 to pK-K-pi+ relative to Xic0 to Xi- pi+. We find B(Xic0 to pK-K-pi+)/B(Xic0 to Xi-pi+)= 0.35+/-$0.08(stat)+/-0.05(syst). In the resonant substructure…

Using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773~GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we search for a scalar partner of the $X(3872)$, denoted as…

The X(3872) has non-charmonium-like properties, such as decay processes that seem to violate isospin, and a mass that lies unexpectedly close to the neutral-D-plus-neutral-D-excited-state threshold. An EFT that includes both charmonium-like…

A study of the lineshape of the $\chi_{c1}(3872)$ state is made using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3\,$fb$^{-1}$ collected in $pp$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8\,TeV with the LHCb detector.…

Amplitude analysis is a powerful tool to study the properties of intermediate resonances produced in the decays of B mesons. At LHCb we have studied B+ decays to X(3872) K+, where X(3872) decays to J/psi pi+ pi-, to determine the quantum…

From a picture of the X(3872) where the resonance is a bound state of $\bar{D}D^*-c.c.$, we evaluate the decay width into the $J/\psi \gamma$ channel, which is sensitive to the internal structure of this state. For this purpose we evaluate…

New data for X(3872) production in B decays provide a separation between X production and decay, sharpen several experimental puzzles and impose serious constraints on all models. Both charged and neutral B decays produce a narrow neutral…

Triangle mechanisms for $B^0\to (J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-) K^+\pi^-$ are studied. Experimentally, an $X(3872)$ peak has been observed in this process. When the final $(J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-)\pi$ invariant mass is around the $D^*\bar D^*$ threshold, one…
