Motivated by the Belle Collaboration's new observation of $Y(4626)$, we investigate the possibility of its configuration as a $P$-wave $[cs][\bar{c}\bar{s}]$ tetraquark state from QCD sum rules. Eventually, the extracted mass…
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…
The difference between Z(4430) as a $D^{*}D_1$ molecule and a tetraquark state and how to distinguish between them are discussed. We construct an effective Lagrangian with $D^{*}D_1$ contact interactions constrained by the heavy quark…
We discuss the likely tetraquark interpretation of the X(1576) K+ K- isovector resonance recently reported by BES with J^{PC}=1^{--}. We point out that if this interpretation as a four-quark state is correct, the (s u sbar dbar) tetraquark…
We study the decays $B_{c,u,d}\to X(3872)P$ in the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach, where the puzzling resonance $X(3872)$ is involved and $P$ represents a light pseudoscalar meson $K$ and $\pi$. Assuming the $X(3872)$ as a $1^{++}$…
The new particle Z(3930) found by the Belle and BaBar Collaborations through the $\gamma\gamma\rightarrow D\bar D$ process is identified to be the $\chi_{c2}(2P)$ state. Since the mass of this particle is above the $D\bar D^{(\ast)}$…
Using data samples of 102 million Upsilon(1S) events and 158 million Upsilon(2S) events collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider, we search for [udsccbar] pentaquark states decaying to Jpsi Lambda.…
A spate of remarkable new hadrons reported in 2003 may lead to unequivocal proof of states beyond conventional $q\bar{q}$ and $qqq$ structure. Claimed baryonic states Theta+, Phi, and Theta^0_c would consist of five quarks, and new…
$Z_c(4430)$ discovered by the Belle and confirmed by the LHCb in $\bar{B}^0\to\psi(2S)K^-\pi^+$ is generally considered to be a charged charmonium-like state that includes minimally two quarks and two antiquarks. $Z_c(4200)$ found in…
We present a tetraquark interpretation of the charged bottomonium-like states Z+-_b(10610) and Z+-_b(10650), observed by the Belle collaboration in the pi+- Upsilon(nS) (n=1,2,3) and pi+- h_b(mP) (m=1,2) invariant mass spectra from the data…
The two excited vector charmonium states $Y(4220)$ and $Y(4360)$ are difficult to be understood as pure $c\bar{c}$ charmonium states. Since they are located close to the mass thresholds of $\bar{D}D_{1}$ and $\bar{D}^*D_{1}$, they can be…
Since the discovery of X(3872), its structure has been in ceaseless dispute. The data of $X(3872)\rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0 J/\psi$ suggest that X(3872) may be a high-spin charmonium-like of $2^{-+}$. In terms of the light front quark…
Recent BABAR and Belle results on rare B decays involving photons or lepton pairs are reviewed. New preliminary limits from both experiments for B-->rho gamma and B-->omega gamma, and from BABAR for B --> K nu nu and B --> tau nu are…
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,…
Using a general parameterization of two-body scattering amplitude, we systematically analyze the corresponding data on $X(3872)$, more explicitly, the CDF data on inclusive $p\bar{p}$ scattering to $J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$, and the Belle and…
We search for a charged partner of the X(3872) in the decay B --> X- K, X- --> J/psi pi- pi0, using 234 million BBbar events collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II e+e- asymmetric-energy storage ring. The…
We review our investigations devoted to the analysis of the resonances $ Z_{c}(3900)$, $Z_{c}(4430)$, $Z_{c}(4100)$, $X(4140)$, $X(4274)$, $a_1(1420)$ , $Y(4660)$, $X(2100)$, $X(2239)$ and $Y(2175)$ discovered in various processes by Belle,…
There are eighteen possibly existing $D^{(*)} \bar D^{(*)}$, $D^{(*)} \bar K^{(*)}$, and $D^{(*)} D_s^{(*)-}$ hadronic molecular states. We construct their corresponding interpolating currents, and calculate their masses and decay constants…

The search for multi-quark states beyond the constituent quark model (CQM) has resulted in the discovery of many new exotic states, starting with the observation of the X(3872), discovered by Belle in 2003. Also in the sector of…
