We report on further evidence that the Y(3940) and the recently observed Y(4140) are heavy hadron molecule states with quantum numbers J(PC) = 0(++). The Y(3940) state is considered to be a superposition of D*(+)D*(-) and D*(0) barD*(0),…
We discuss a possible interpretation of the open charm mesons $D_{s0}^*(2317)$, $D_{s1}(2460)$ and the hidden charm mesons X(3872), Y(3940) and Y(4140) as hadron molecules. Using a phenomenological Lagrangian approach we review the strong…
We investigate the resonance phenomenon in deeply bound charmoniumlike states. By interpreting the $Y(4220)$, $Y(4360)$, and $\psi(4415)$ states as deeply $S$-wave bound $D \bar D_1$, $D^* \bar D_1$, and $D^* \bar D_2^*$ molecules,…
Using a constituent quark model we study the mass and decay channels of meson meson and meson baryon structures in the charm sector. We show that the $X(3872)$ and $X(3940)$ resonances can be described as mixed charmonium-molecular states…
Using the QCD sum rules approach we study the mass and decay width of the channel $J/\psi + \omega$ for the $Y(3940)$ state. We assume that it can be described by a mixed charmonium-molecule scalar state, $(\chi_{c0})-(D^\ast D^\ast)$…
In this thesis, the QCD sum rules approach has been used to study the nature of the following charmonium resonances: Y(3930), Y(4140), X(4350), Y(4260), Y(4360) and Y(4660). There is a strong evidence that these states have non-conventional…
We study the influence of possible molecular structures in the charmonium spectrum. We focus on the $0^{++}$ and $1^{--}$ sectors. In the first one we coupled the $2 ^3P_0$ $q\bar q$ pair with $DD$, $J/\psi \omega$, $D_sD_s$ and…
Vector charmonium states can be directly produced in the $e^+e^{-}$ annihilation process. Among them, $Y(4230)$ and $Y(4360)$ splitting from the previously discovered $Y(4260)$ are not easily arranged into the conventional charmonium…
We present a concise review of the vector charmonium state $\psi(4230)$, which was originally labelled as $Y(4260)$ in the literature. As one of the earliest candidates for a QCD exotic states, its interpretation has initiated various ideas…
Stimulated by the new evidence of Y(4274) observed in the $J/\psi\phi$ invariant mass spectrum, we first propose the charmonium-like state Y(4274) as the S-wave $D_s\bar{D}_{s0}(2317)+h.c.$ molecular state with $J^P=0^-$, which is supported…
The charmoniumlike state $Y(4260)$ is described as predominantly a $D_1 \bar{D}$ molecule in a coupled-channel quark model [Phys.\,Rev.\,D\,\textbf{96},\,114022\,(2017)]. The heavy quark spin symmetry (HQSS) thus implies the possible…
In present work the Y(4260) resonance is considered as a weakly bound state of a pseudoscalar D and an axial D1 charm meson. We consider the two-body decay Y(4260) -> Zc(3900) + pi where Zc(3900) is treated as hadron molecule as well.…
We apply a phenomenological Lagrangian approach to the radiative decay Y(4260) -> X(3872) + gamma. The Y(4260) and X(3872) resonances are considered as composite states containing both molecular hadronic and charmonium components. Having a…
Strong decays of the charmonium-like state $Y(4320)$ have been studied in the framework of the covariant confined quark model. The resonance $Y$ has been interpreted as a four-quark state of the molecular type. We evaluate the hidden-charm…
The recently observed Y(4260) lies far above the decay threshold with a width less than 100 MeV. We argue that it's very difficult to accommodate Y(4260) as a conventional $c\bar c$ radial excitation or a D-wave state. It can't be a…
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 $h_c(1P)\pi^+$…
We discuss possible options for interpreting the newly observed state Y(4140) by the CDF collaboration in $B^+\to J/\psi\phi K^+$ decay above the $J/\psi\phi$ threshold, and argue that it is more likely to be a $D_s^*$-$D_s^*$ molecular…
In this work we study the properties of hadronic molecules in the heavy-quark sector. These have become increasingly important since from the beginning of this century a large number of states have been measured that for different reasons…
An interesting controversy has emerged challenging the widely accepted nature of the $X(3915)$ and the $X(3930)$ resonances, which had initially been assigned to the $\chi_{c0}(2P)$ and $\chi_{c2}(2P)$ $c\bar c$ states, respectively. To…
We suggest that $\psi$ (4040) and $\psi$ (4160) are strong mixtures of ground state hybrid charmonium at $\sim 4.1$ GeV and the $\psi (3S)$ of conventional charmonium. The $\Gamma^{e^+e^-}$, masses and total widths of the $\psi(4040)$ and…
