I report results on the X(3872) from the Tevatron. Mass and other properties have been studied, with a focus on new results on the dipion mass spectrum in X -> J/PsiPi^+Pi^- decays. Dipions favor interpreting the decay as J/PsiRho, implying…
New spectroscopy from the B factories, the advent of CLEO-c and the BES upgrade renewed the interest in charmonia. Among the new measurements, the state X(3872) has received special attention due to its unexpected properties. Its structure…
Many new states in the charmonium and bottomonium mass region were recently discovered by the BaBar, Belle and CDF Collaborations. We use the QCD Sum Rule approach to study the possible structure of some of these states. In particular we…
We present an analysis of the mass of the X(3872) reconstructed via its decay to J/psi pi+ pi- using 2.4 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity from ppbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV, collected with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab…
We propose a simple explanation for the increase of approximately 3 MeV/c^2 in the mass value of the X(3872) obtained from D^{*0} {D^0}bar decay relative to that obtained from decay to J/psi pi+ pi-. If the total width of the X(3872) is 2-3…
To illustrate the campaign to extend our knowledge of the charmonium spectrum, I focus on a puzzling new state, $X(3872) \to \pi^+\pi^- J/\psi$. Studying the influence of open-charm channels on charmonium properties leads us to propose a…
After taking into account both the pion and sigma meson exchange potential, we have performed a dynamical calculation of the $D^0\bar{D}^{\ast0}$ system. The $\sigma$ meson exchange potential is repulsive from heavy quark symmetry and…
The hidden-charm decays serve as irreplaceable platforms for probing the structures of charmonium-like states, such as $X(3872)$, $Y(4260)$, $Z_c(3900)$, and their heavy-quark-symmetry partners. In the hadronic molecular scenario, these…
New enhancements in the charmonium and bottomonium spectra observed since 2003 are very briefly reviewed. Special attention is paid to $\chi_{c1}(3872)$ (formerly $X(3872)$) owing to its remarkable proximity to the $\bar{D}^{\star0}\!D^0$…
A spate of remarkable new hadrons reported in 2003 may lead to unequivocal proof of states beyond conventional $q\bar{q}$ and $qqq$ structure. Claimed baryonic states Theta+, Phi, and Theta^0_c would consist of five quarks, and new…
The nature of the $X(3872)$ and other exotic hadrons has been a subject of extensive investigation. While various theoretical models have been proposed, experimental evidence suggests that the $X(3872)$ may be a mixture state of a hadronic…
The positive parity $\chi_{cJ}(2P)$ charmonium states are expected to lie around the 3.9 GeV/$c^2$ energy region, according to the predictions of quark models. However, a plethora of states with difficult assignment and unconventional…
We discuss the possibilities of producing the X(3872), which is assumed to be a D \bar D^* bound state, in radiative decays of charmonia. We argue that the ideal energy regions to observe the X(3872) associated with a photon in e^+e^-…
Very recently, the LHCb Collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN observed new resonance $X(4630)$. The $X(4630)$ is decoded as a charmoniumlike molecule with hidden-strange quantum number well in the one boson exchange mechanism.…
Using a general parameterization of two-body scattering amplitude, we systematically analyze the corresponding data on $X(3872)$, more explicitly, the CDF data on inclusive $p\bar{p}$ scattering to $J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$, and the Belle and…

In this work, we take the $X(3872)$ as the hidden-charm tetraquark state with both isospin $I=0$ and $1$ components, then investigate the strong decays $X(3872)\to J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$, $J/\psi\omega$, $\chi_{c1}\pi^0$, $D^{*0}\bar{D}^0$ and…

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…
We present an estimate of the partial width of X(3872) into p p-bar under the assumption that it is a weakly-bound hadronic molecule whose constituents are a superposition of the charm mesons D^{*0} D-bar^0 and D^{0} D-bar^{*0}. The p p-bar…
