Two charm-strange mesons, the $D_{s1}^*(2710)$ and the $D_{sJ}^*(2860)$, have recently been observed by several experiments. There has been speculation in the literature that the $D_{s1}^*(2710)$ is the $2^3S_1(c\bar{s})$ state and the…
The observation of the D_{sJ}^*(2317), D_{sJ}(2460), and SELEX D^*_{sJ}(2632) states with properties differing considerably from what was expected has led to a renewed interest in hadron spectroscopy. In addition to these states,…
We carry out a systematic study of the heavy-light meson strong decays in a chiral quark model. For the $S$-wave vectors ($D^*(2007)$, $D^{*\pm}(2010)$), $P$-wave scalars ($D^*_0(2400)$, $B^*_0(5730)$) and tensors ($D^*_2(2460)$,…
In this article, we take the $D_{s3}^*(2860)$ and $D_{s1}^*(2860)$ as the $1^3{\rm D}_3$ and $1^3{\rm D}_1$ $c\bar{s}$ states, respectively, study their strong decays with the heavy meson effective theory by including the chiral symmetry…
A semi-relativistic potential model is adopted to calculate the mass spectra of charmed and charmed-strange meson states up to the $2D$ excitations.The strong decay properties are further analyzed with a chiral quark model by using the…
The spectrum and decay properties of radially excited $D_s$ states are examined in a new model. Good agreement is obtained with the properties of two recently announced $D_s$ mesons identified as $D_{s0}(2860) = c\bar{s}(2P)$ and…

I briefly review the experimental observations concerning the charmed mesons $D_{sJ}^*(2317)$, $D_{sJ}(2460)$ and survey on some of the interpretations proposed in order to understand their nature. I present an analysis of their decay modes…
The masses and decays of the scalar D_{s0}^*(2317) and axial-vector D_{s1}^*(2460) charmed strange mesons are calculated consistently in the hadrogenesis conjecture. These mesons decay either strongly into the isospin-violating pi^0 D_s and…
We study three newly observed D(2550), D(2610), and D(2760) by the BaBar Collaboration utilizing the mass spectra and investigating the strong decays. Our calculation indicates that D(2610) is an admixture of $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ with…
In the covariant level-classification scheme of hadrons proposed recently, the existence of "chiral particles", scalar and axial-vector mesons as the partners of the ground-state pseudo-scalar and vector mesons, respectively, were predicted…
The positive parity scalar D$_{s0}^*$(2317) and axial-vector D$_{s1}^*$(2460) charmed strange mesons are generated by coupled-channel dynamics through the s-wave scattering of Goldstone bosons off the pseudoscalar and vector D(D$_s$)-meson…
The essential points and physical backgrounds of the covariant level-classification scheme, recently proposed by us, are reviewed: In this scheme the general composite hadrons are classified as the multiplets with the U(12)SF * O(3,1)…
I classify exotic hadrons into two types, "genuine" and "hidden" exotics, and propose that the "hidden" exotics would be interpreted as "chiralons" in the ~U(12)_SF times O(3,1)_L-classification scheme of hadrons. Based upon this conjecture…
We discuss several new observations of mesons with open charm. In particular, we consider $D_{sJ}(2317)$ and $D_{sJ}(2460)$ and compare their isospin violating decays into $D^{(*)}_s \pi$ to the radiative decays analysed using light-cone…
A new charm-strange meson, the $D_{s1}^*(2863)$, has recently been observed by the LHCb collaboration which also determined the $D_{sJ}^*(2860)$ to have spin 3. One of the speculations about the previously observed $D_{s1}^*(2710)$ is that…
A coupled-channel model previously employed to describe the narrow $D_{s0}^*$(2317) and broad $D_0^*$(2400) charmed scalar mesons is generalized so as to include all ground-state pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar and vector-vector two-meson…
