Inspired by the first observation of a vector charmonium-like state $Y(4626)$ decaying to a meson pair $D_{s}^{+}D_{s1}(2536)^{-}$, which could be viewed as a $P$-wave scalar-scalar $[cs][\bar{c}\bar{s}]$ tetraquark state, we predict a…

Using the QCD sum rules we test if the charmonium-like structure Y(4274), observed in the $J/\psi\phi$ invariant mass spectrum, can be described with a $D_s\bar{D}_{s0}(2317)+h.c.$ molecular current with $J^{PC}=0^{-+}$. We consider the…

Production of metastable charmonium states more massive than the $\psi(3685)$ is expected in models and could be the source of up to $50\%$ of the $\psi$ observed at large $p_T$ at the Tevatron.Narrow $2^{-+},2^{--} c\bar{c}$ are predicted…

The discovery of hadronic states beyond the conventional two-quark meson and three-quark baryon picture in the last two decades is one of the most amazing accomplishments in fundamental physics research. We review the experimental progress…

Charmonium states can decay into pairs of $D$ and $\overline{D}$ mesons if their masses are above the allowed decay thresholds. In general $c\bar{c}$ states near threshold will also undergo mixing with $D\overline{D}$ molecular (or…

Recent data on charmonium production in B-meson decays suggest that charmonium hybrid mesons with mass ~4 GeV may be produced in B-decay via c\bar{c} colour octet operators. Some of these states are likely to be narrow with clean signatures…

The first observation of exotic states with a new quark content $c \bar{c} u \bar{s}$ decaying to the $J/\psi K^+$ final state is reported with high significance from an amplitude analysis of the $B^+ \to J/\psi \phi K^+$ decay. The…

In this talk, we review the most recent progress in the searching for the exotic hadrons, including hybrids, multi-quark states, molecules and so on. We only focus on the studies with a charmonium and one or more light mesons in the final…

In this work, we predict two charged charmonium-like structures close to the $D^\ast\bar{D}$ and $D^\ast\bar{D}^\ast$ thresholds, where the Initial Single Pion Emission mechanism is introduced in the hidden-charm dipion decays of higher…

We have studied the $J/\psi\phi$ mass distribution of the process $B^+\to J/\psi\phi K^+$ from the threshold to about 4250 MeV, by considering the contribution of the $X(4140)$ with a narrow width, together with the $X(4160)$ state. Our…

We study the charmonium dissociation in the hot medium with finite baryon chemical potential $\mu_B$. Charmonium bound states are dissociated in the medium by the color screening effect and the random scatterings with thermal partons, which…

Charmonium spectroscopy gained renewed interest after the discovery in 2003 of the unpredicted X(3872) charmonium-like state, above the $D\overline{D}$ threshold. To date many charmonium-like states above the $D\overline{D}$ threshold have…

Considering the situation that a single chiral partilce, $\eta$, is initially emitted, we study the hidden-charm di-eta decays of charmoniumlike state $Y(4660)$ and the predicted charmonium $\psi(4790)$, i.e., $Y(4660)/\psi(4790) \to…

In the present work, we propose $Y(4140)$ as the $\chi_{c1}(3P)$ state by studying the $\chi_{c1} \pi^+ \pi^-$ invariant mass spectrum of the $B\to K \chi_{c1} \pi^+ \pi^-$ process. In the $D\bar{D}$ invariant mass spectrum of the $B\to K…

I discuss some recent discoveries in the spectroscopy of the charmonium-like resonances, and some of their theoretical interpretations are reviewed.

A study of resonant structures in $B^{+}\rightarrow{D^{\ast+}D^{-}K^{+}}$ and $B^{+}\rightarrow{D^{\ast-}D^{+}K^{+}}$ decays is performed, using proton-proton collision data at centre-of-mass energies of $\sqrt{s}=7, 8$, and $13$ TeV…

Using data collected with the CLEO detector operating at the CESR e+e- collider at sqrt s = 3.97-4.26 GeV, we investigate 15 charmonium decay modes of the psi(4040), psi(4160), and Y(4260) resonances. We confirm, at 11$\sigma$ significance,…

Lots of charmonium-like structures have been observed in the last two decades. Most of them have quantum numbers that can be formed by a pair of charm and anticharm quarks, thus it is difficult to unambiguously identify the exotic ones…

I review possible resolution of the $J/\psi (\psi^{\prime}) \to \rho-\pi$ puzzle based on two inputs: the relative phase between the one- photon and the gluonic decay amplitudes, and a possible hadronic excess in the inclusive…

This paper reports the first multi-channel joint analysis to identify the properties of the exotic charmonium-like state $T_{c\bar{c}}(4020)$ via the electron-positron annihilation process $e^{+}e^{-}\to\pi^{+}T_{c\bar{c}}(4020)^{-}+c.c$. A…
