Identification of charmonium states at hadron colliders has mostly been limited to leptonic decays of the J/{\psi}. In this paper we present and algorithm to identify hadronic decays of charmonium states (J/{\psi}, {\psi}(2S),…
We determine $J^{PC}=0^{++}$ and $2^{++}$ hadron-hadron scattering amplitudes in the charmonium energy region up to 4100 MeV using lattice QCD, a first-principles approach to QCD. Working at $m_\pi\approx 391$ MeV, more than 200…
A potential function is presented for describing a system of flexible H$_2$O molecules based on the single center multipole expansion (SCME) of the electrostatic interaction. The model, referred to as SCME/f, includes the variation of the…
Using a sample of $1.06\times10^8$ $\psi^\prime$ mesons collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII $e^+e^-$ collider and $\chi_{cJ}$ mesons produced via radiative transitions from the $\psi^\prime$, we report the first observation for…
We build a "bottom-up" holographic model of charmonium by matching the essential spectral data. We argue that this data must include not only the masses but also the decay constants of the J/psi and psi' mesons. Relative to the "soft-wall"…
The production of charmonia in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is formulated within the framework of a quantum kinetic theory simultaneously accounting for breakup and recombination processes. The survival probability of J/Psi mesons is…
A colorless c-cbar dipole emerging from a heavy ion collision and developing the charmonium wave function can be broken-up by final state interactions (FSI) propagating through the hot medium created in the collision. We single out two…
The production of charmonia is investigated for heavy-ion collisions from SPS to RHIC energies. Our approach incorporates two sources of $J/\Psi$ yield: (i) a direct contribution arising from early (hard) parton-parton collisions, subject…
We discuss the theoretical status of inclusive radiative decays of charmonium, with a particular emphasis on the QCD description of the photon spectrum, where progress has occurred in recent years. We also comment on the possible extraction…
We investigate E1 radiative transitions within charmonium in a relativistic approach based on light-front QCD. In quantum field theory, two sets of processes are pure E1: $\chi_{c0} \to J/\psi \gamma$ ($\psi\to \chi_{c0}\gamma$) and $h_c…
In this work, we revisit the $3S$-$2D$ mixing scheme for the charmonia $\psi(4040)$ and $\psi(4160)$. We introduce a coupled-channel mechanism-distinct from the tensor-force contribution in potential models, which alone is insufficient to…
Using 58 million $J/\psi$ decays, we have investigated the $p \bar{p}$ invariant mass spectrum in the radiative decay $J/\psi \to \gamma p \bar{p}$ and observe a prominent structure with mass near $2m_p$. Fitting with an S-wave…
It is pointed out that the diagonal amplitude of the $E1-E1$ chromo-electric interaction with soft gluon fields (chromo-polarizability) can be measured directly for the $J/\psi$ and $\Upsilon$ resonances in the decays $J/\psi \to \pi \pi…

Using data taken with the CLEO-c detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have investigated the direct photon momentum spectrum in the decay J/psi->gamma+gluon+gluon, via the 'tagged' process: e+e- -> psi(2S); psi(2S)->J/psi…
Using 9.0 $\rm fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at center-of-mass energies from 4.178 to 4.278 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we perform the first search for the radiative transition…
