Belle and BaBar experiments at the KEKB and PEP-II B-factories provide also an excellent environment for spectroscopy studies. In this report we present recent results in the field of charmonium spectroscopy, focusing on new charmonium-like…
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…
The BABAR Collaboration performed a search for xi(2220) production in the initial-state radiation process e^+e^- --> gamma J/psi, J/psi --> gamma K^+K^- or J/psi --> gamma K^0_SK^0_S. No evidence for the xi(2220) resonance has been found.…
In this article, we review the recent experimental studies on the charmoniumlike states, mainly from the e+e- annihilation experiments BESIII, Belle, BaBar, and CLEO-c, and the hadron collider experiment LHCb. We discuss the results on the…
We report on exclusive decays of B mesons into final states containing charmonium using data collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage rings. The charmonium states considered here are J/psi, psi(2S), and chi_C1. Branching…
I will report on the recent LHCb results on the evidence for the decay $X(3872)\rightarrow\psi(2S) \gamma$, and on the improved measurement of the mass and width of the $Z(4430)^-$, the determination of its quantum numbers and the…
The X(3872) and Z(4430) are candidates of tetraquark state with a ccbar pair. We present results from Belle recently updated for the mass, branching fractions etc. in different production/decay processes of the X(3872). Results from a…
We report recent results on the properties of the X(3872) produced via the B+ --> K+ X(3872) decay process. We observe X -->pi+pi-pi0 J/psi decays where the 3pi invariant masses cluster near the upper kinematic boundary suggesting that they…
The recent results on Charmonium and Charmonium-like states at BESIII are reviewed, including the observation of $\rm Z_{cs}(3985)$ state, the study of the new decay modes of $\psi_2(3823)$ state, observation of resonance structure in $\rm…
We present the results of an amplitude analysis of anti-B0 -> J/psi K- pi+ decays. A new charged charmoniumlike state Zc(4200)+ decaying to J/psi pi+ is observed with a significance of 6.2 sigma. The mass and width of the Zc(4200)+ are 4196…
We review the recent experimental results on the exotic charmoniumlike states. Among them we discuss the X(3872), Y(3940), Z^\pm(4430) and Z^\pm_{1,2} states found in B-meson decays, the X(3940) and X(4160) states produced in double…
If the recently-discovered charmonium state X(3872) is a loosely-bound S-wave molecule of the charm mesons \bar D^0 D^{*0} or \bar D^{*0} D^0, it can be produced in B meson decay by the coalescence of charm mesons. If this coalescence…
Contrary to almost standard opinion that the X(3872) resonance is the D^{*0}\bar D^0+c.c. molecule or the qc\bar q\bar c four-quark state, we discuss the scenario where the X(3872)resonance is the c\bar c = \chi_{c1}(2P) charmonium which…
We report evidence for the decay modes X(3872) --> gamma J/psi and X(3872)--> pi+pi-pi0 J/psip. In the latter, the pi+pi-pi0 invariant mass distribution has a strong peak between 750 MeV and the kinematic limit of 775 MeV, suggesting that…
We present measurements of the decays B+ -> X(3872) K+ and B0 -> X(3872) K0 with X(3872) -> Jpsi pi+ pi-. The data sample used, collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e- asymmetric-energy storage ring, corresponds to 455 x 10^6…
We report the observation of a narrow charmonium-like state produced in the exclusive decay process B+ -> K+ pi+pi- J/psi. This state, which decays into pi+pi- J/psi, has a mass of 3872.0+-0.6(stat)+-0.5(syst) MeV, a value that is very near…
