The X(3872) has non-charmonium-like properties, such as decay processes that seem to violate isospin, and a mass that lies unexpectedly close to the neutral-D-plus-neutral-D-excited-state threshold. An EFT that includes both charmonium-like…
We present the recent measurements of the $e^+e^-\to K^+K^- J/\psi$ process carried out by the BESIII experiment. A new decay mode $Y(4230)\to K^+K^- J/\psi$ is firstly identified by BESIII. Furthermore, two vector charmoniumlike states,…
Evidence for the decay mode $X(3872)\rightarrow\psi(2S)\gamma$ in $B^+\rightarrow X(3872)K^+$ decays is found with a significance of 4.4 standard deviations. The analysis is based on a data sample of proton-proton collisions, corresponding…
New BABAR results on B mesons and quarkonia are presented: an analysis of B+ --> X(3872)K+ and B0 --> X(3872)K0 decays with X(3872) --> J/Psi pi+pi-, a precise measurement of the B mass difference Delta mB = m(B0) - m(B+) and a study of…
It is proposed that the newly discovered X(3872) is a $J^{PC} = 1^{++}$ $D^0\bar D^{0*}$ hadronic resonance stabilized by admixtures of $\omega J/\psi$ and $\rho J/\psi$. A specific model of the state is constructed and tests of its…
We report on the search for a charged partner of the X(3872) in the decay $B \to X^\pm K$, $X^\pm \to J/\psi \pi^\pm \pi^0$, using 213 million $B\bar B$ events collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II…
An overview is given on recent progress in the study of quarkonium spectroscopy at the B-factories. In particular, an updated status report is presented of the long list of "charmonium-like" resonances newly discovered, whose assignment as…
We re-examine the re-scattering mechanism for the X(3872), as a candidate for the 2P charmonium state $\chi_{c1}(2P)$, decaying to $J/\psi\rho(\omega)$ through exchanging $D^{(*)}$ mesons between intermediate states $D(\bar{D})$ and…
Recent results by BELLE and BaBar point to the existence of a second X particle decaying in D^0 D^0bar pi^0, a few MeV above the X(3872). We identify the two X states with the neutral particles predicted by the 4-quark model and show that…
We report measurements of branching fractions and charge asymmetries of exclusive decays of neutral and charged B mesons into two-body final states containing a charmonium state and a light strange meson. The charmonium mesons considered…
We perform a unified description of the experimental data of the $\pi^+\pi^-$ invariant mass spectra of $B_s^0 \to \psi(2S) \pi^+\pi^-$, the $\pi^+\pi^-$ and $K^+ K^-$ invariant mass spectra of $B_s^0 \to X(3872) \pi^+\pi^- (K^+ K^-)$, and…
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…
We review recent results on charmonium-like exotic states from the Belle experiment. The two-photon process $\gamma \gamma \to \phi \jpsi$ is measured to search for Y(4140). No signal for the $Y(4140) \to \phi \jpsi$ is observed. But a…
We review recent measurements of pure neutral final state production, gamma gamma to pi0 pi0 and eta pi0, and observations of new charmoniumlike resonances, X(3915) and X(4350), in the two-photon processes at the Belle experiment.
The X(3872) with quantum numbers J(PC) = 1(++) is considered as a composite hadronic state comprised of the dominant molecular D(0) D*(0) component and other hadronic pairs - D(+-) D*(-+), Jpsi omega and Jpsi rho. Applying the compositeness…
Studying the hidden-charm dipion decays of the charmoniumlike state Y(4360), we show that there exist charged charmoniumlike structures near $D\bar{D}^*$ and $D^*\bar{D}^*$ thresholds in the $J/\psi\pi^+$, $\psi(2S)\pi^+$ and $h_c(1P)\pi^+$…
Within the framework of nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics, we study the production of $C=+$ charmonium states $H$ in $e^+e^-\to \gamma~+~H$ at BESIII with $H=\eta_c(nS)$ (n=1, 2, 3, and 4), $\chi_{cJ}(nP)$ (n=1, 2, and 3), and…
