The new particle $D^{*}_{s1}(2700)^{+}$ has stimulated many attentions. There are different assignments of its inherent properties. It may be a $2^3S_1$, $1^3D_1$ or the mixture of $2^3S_1-1^3D_1$ $c\bar s$ $1^-$ state. By considering its…

A relativistic quark model is extended to incorporate chiral and gauge symmetries. We obtain the DD*pi and DD*gamma couplings and find that the ratio Gamma(D*0->D0pi0)/Gamma(D*0->D0gamma) constrains the charm-quark mass close to 1.45 GeV.…

We investigate the $D\bar{D}$ production in $e^+e^-$ annihilations near threshold in an effective Lagrangian approach. This shows that the lineshape of the cross section near threshold is sensitive to the contributions from $\psi^\prime$,…

Data on open-charm channels collected by the Belle Collaboration are analysed simultaneously using a unitary approach based on a coupled-channel model in a wide energy range $\sqrt{s}=3.7\div 4.7$ GeV. The resulting fit provides a…

In this article, we investigate the potential of the angular distribution of the $B \rightarrow D^* \ell {\nu}_{\ell}$ process to search for new physics signals. The Belle collaboration has analysed it to constraint $V_{cb}$ and the $B\to…

Resonance width effects in charged $B$ decays to neutral $D$ mesons and excited kaon states $K_i$ around 1400 MeV are shown to lead to large calculable final state phases. $CP$ asymmetries are defined for any charged $B$ decay to three…

Space photometry has revealed rich pulsation spectra in classical Be stars. Often frequency pairs can be found that differ by nearly the frequency of a third genuine stellar variability. The lowest currently known of these so-called…

We discuss the shape of threshold signals in production cross sections of the reaction e+ + e- --> D* + antiD*, at the opening of the D(s)* antiD(s)* and Lambda(c)+ Lambda(c)- channels. Furthermore, evidence for the 3D, 5S, 4D, 6S, 5D, 7S,…

Using data collected on the psi(3770) resonance and near the Ds*+ Ds- peak production energy by the CLEO-c detector, we study the decays of the possible D->PP modes and report measurements of or upper limits on all branching fractions for…

We estimate kinematical higher-twist (up to twist 4) corrections to the $\gamma^*(q_1) \gamma(q_2) \to M(p_1) \bar{M}(p_2)$ amplitudes at large $Q^2=-q_1^2$ and small $s=(q_1+q_2)^2$, where $M$ is a scalar or pseudoscalar meson. This…

It is pointed out that the narrow charmonium state at 3871.8 MeV reported by the Belle collaboration is likely to be a $D\bar D^*$ deuteronlike meson-meson state called a deuson. It was predicted near the $D\bar D^*$ threshold over 10 years…

We have observed a signal for the decay D*+ -> D+ gamma at a significance of 4 standard deviations. From the measured branching ratio B(D*+ -> D+ gamma)/B(D*+ -> D+ pi0)=0.055 +- 0.014 +- 0.010 we find B(D*+ -> D+ gamma)= 0.017 +- 0.004 +-…
