We analyze the recently discovered $D_{sJ}(2860)$ meson using arguments based on the heavy quark expansion together with the experimental observations. We consider the possible quantum number assignments, arguing that the interpretation of…
The spectrum and decay properties of radially excited $D_s$ states are examined in a new model. Good agreement is obtained with the properties of two recently announced $D_s$ mesons identified as $D_{s0}(2860) = c\bar{s}(2P)$ and…
Two charm-strange mesons, the $D_{s1}^*(2710)$ and the $D_{sJ}^*(2860)$, have recently been observed by several experiments. There has been speculation in the literature that the $D_{s1}^*(2710)$ is the $2^3S_1(c\bar{s})$ state and the…
A new charm-strange meson, the $D_{s1}^*(2863)$, has recently been observed by the LHCb collaboration which also determined the $D_{sJ}^*(2860)$ to have spin 3. One of the speculations about the previously observed $D_{s1}^*(2710)$ is that…
The observation of the D_{sJ}^*(2317), D_{sJ}(2460), and SELEX D^*_{sJ}(2632) states with properties differing considerably from what was expected has led to a renewed interest in hadron spectroscopy. In addition to these states,…
Recently Babar Collaboration reported a new $c\bar{s}$ state $D_{sJ}(2860)$ and Belle Collaboration observed $D_{sJ}(2715)$. We investigate the strong decays of the excited $c\bar{s}$ states using the $^{3}P_{0}$ model. After comparing the…
Within a theoretical framework that accounts for all open-charm mesons, including the $D_0^*(2308)$, the $D_{sJ}^*(2317)$ and the $D_{sJ}(2460)$, we analyze the structure and explore possible quantum number assignments for the…
We discuss several new observations of mesons with open charm. In particular, we consider $D_{sJ}(2317)$ and $D_{sJ}(2460)$ and compare their isospin violating decays into $D^{(*)}_s \pi$ to the radiative decays analysed using light-cone…
We discuss the structure of the narrow mesons with charm and strangeness $D_{sJ}^*(2317)$ and $D_{sJ}(2460)$, stressing the role of the radiative decay modes in shedding light on the quark content of these states. We argue that present…
We discuss how to classify the $c{\bar s}$ meson $D_{sJ}(3040)$ recently discovered by the BaBar Collaboration. We consider four possible assignments, together with signatures useful to distinguish among them.

The properties of the $\DsTT$ and $\DsFE$ mesons are studied using 125 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^- \to c \bar{c}$ data collected by the BaBar experiment. Preliminary mass estimates of $[2318.9\pm 0.3 ({\rm stat.}) \pm 0.9 ({\rm syst.})]$…
In my talk I discussed the properties of the newly discovered D_{sJ}^*(2317), D_{sJ}(2460), X(3872), and SELEX D^*_{sJ}(2632) states and suggested experimental measurements that can shed light on them. In this writeup I concentrate on an…
Two new states in the charm strange sector, DsJ(2317) and DsJ(2460), have recently been discovered at electron positron collider experiments. The new states are first observed in the dominant Ds pi0 and Ds* pi0 modes respectively and are…
We report the observation of a new $D_{sJ}$ meson produced in $B^{+} \to \bar{D}^{0} D_{sJ} \to \bar{D}^{0} D^{0} K^{+}$. This state has a mass of $M=2708 \pm 9 ^{+11}_{-10} \rm{MeV}/{\it c}^{2}$, a width $\Gamma = 108 \pm 23 ^{+36}_{-31}…

The dynamical similarity which exists between the $\lambda$-mode excited $bbq$ baryons ($q$ refers to the $u$, $d$, and $s$ quarks) and the $\bar{b}q$ mesons inspires us to carry out a combined study of their spectroscopy. In this work, the…
We suggest that the recently discovered charm-strange meson D_sJ(2632), with unusual properties, could be a cyptoexotic tetraquark baryonium state cdd_bars_bar. We predict other four narrow states, as Regge recurrences of D_sJ(2632), below…
