We report on the most recent experimental progress on $XYZ$ charmoniumlike meson states and their possible counterparts in the $s\overline{s}$ and $b\overline{b}$ systems.

Charmonium(-like) or bottomonium(-like) states, which are incompatible with predictions from a static quark anti-quark potential model, are often refered to as XYZ states. In this lecture, some peculiar properties of states such as the…

If the recently-discovered charmonium-like state X(3872) is a loosely-bound S-wave molecule of the charm mesons D^0 \bar D^{*0} or D^{*0} \bar D^0, it can be produced through the weak decay of the B meson into D^0 \bar D^{*0} K or D^{*0}…

It has been proposed recently (Phys. Rev. Lett. 115 (2015), 022001) that the charmoniumlike state named X(3915) and suggested to be a $0^{++}$ scalar, is just the helicity-0 realisation of the $2^{++}$ tensor state $\chi_{c2}(3930)$. This…

The chromomagnetic interaction, with proper account for flavour-symmetry breaking, is shown to explain the mass and coupling properties of the X(3872) resonance as a $J^{PC}$ = 1$^{++}$ state consisting of a heavy quark-antiquark pair and a…

The X(3872) radiative decay is discussed by employing a two-meson multichannel model with the charmonium components, which explains many of the other observed features of X(3872). We have found that the ratio of the branching fractions of…

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…

All existing experimental evidence of the bound state nature of the $X(3872)$ relies on considering its decay products with a finite experimental spectral mass resolution which is typically $\Delta m \ge 2 $MeV and much larger than its…

Many new states in the charmonium mass region were recently discovered by BaBar, Belle, CLEO-c, CDF, D0, BESIII, LHCb and CMS Collaborations. We use the QCD Sum Rule approach to study the possible structure of some of these states.

We discuss the possible production and discovery channels in $e^+e^-$ and $pp$ machines of the $X_b$, the bottomonium counterpart of $X(3872)$ and the putative isoscalar analogue of the charged bottomonium-like states $Z_b$ discovered by…

We discuss exotic states X(3872) and $Z^+(4430)$, observed recently in experiment Belle. The QCD-string based explanation is suggested.

Recently, we have shown that the $X(3872)$ state can be naturally generated as a bound state by incorporating the hadron interactions into the Godfrey-Isgur quark model using the Friedrichs-like model combined with the QPC model, in which…

We perform a simultaneous fit to BESIII data on $e^+e^-\to \gamma (D^0{\bar{D}^{0}}\pi^0/J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-)$ and LHCb data on $B^+\to K^+(J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-)$ to precisely determine the properties of the $X(3872)$, with full consideration of…

In 2021, the Belle collaboration reported the first observation of a new structure in the $\psi(2S) \gamma$ final state produced in the two-photon fusion process. In the hadronic molecule picture, this new structure can be associated with…

Charmonium is a bound state of a charmed quark and a charmed antiquark, and a charmoniumlike state is a resonant structure that contains a charmed quark and antiquark pair but has properties that are incompatible with a conventional…

I review the recent $B$-factory measurements of new states which, in some cases, exhibit Charmonium-like properties, and in other cases suggest the existence of a new spectroscopy. Several theoretical interpretations of the new states have…

Inspired by the newly observed state $X^{*}(3860)$, we analyze the strong decay behaviors of some charmonium-like states $X^{*}(3860)$,$X(3872)$, $X(3915)$, $X(3930)$ and $X(3940)$ by the $^{3}P_{0}$ model. We carry out our work based on…

We present that the $X(3872)$ could be represented as a dynamically generated state in the extended Friedrichs scheme, in which the ratio of "elementariness" and "compositeness" of the different components in the $X(3872)$ is about…

We perform a full amplitude analysis of the process $e^+ e^- \rightarrow J/\psi D \bar{D}$, where $D$ refers to either $D^0$ or $D^+$. A new charmoniumlike state $X^*(3860)$ that decays to $D \bar{D}$ is observed with a significance of…

We attempt a description of the recently discovered Z_{c,b} states in terms of Feshbach resonances arising from the interaction between the `closed' subspace of hadrocharmonium levels and the `open' one of open-charm/beauty thresholds. We…
