We investigate the $D^*K^*$ and $D^*_s\rho$ interaction in coupled channels within the hidden gauge formalism. A structure is developed around their thresholds, short of producing a bound state, which leads to a peak in the $D_s^+ \pi^-$…

In a recent theoretical work, Phys. Lett. B785, 112 (2018), we proposed that a $K^*$ resonance with hidden charm content arises from the $KD\bar D^*$ dynamics, where the $D\bar D^*$ system is treated as a $Z_c(3900)$ or $X(3872)$. With the…
