New experimental data obtained from $\gamma$-ray tagged one-neutron and one-proton knockout from $^{55}$Co is presented. A candidate for the sought-after $T=1, T_z = 0, J^{\pi} = 6^+$ state in $^{54}$Co is proposed based on a comparison to…
Using the chromomagnetic interaction Hamiltonian with proper account for the SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking, we have performed a schematic study on the masses of $S-$wave heavy tetraquarks as $bq\bar{b}\bar{q}$ ($q$ denotes $u$, $d$, $s$…
It has been proposed recently (Phys. Rev. Lett. 115 (2015), 022001) that the charmoniumlike state named X(3915) and suggested to be a $0^{++}$ scalar, is just the helicity-0 realisation of the $2^{++}$ tensor state $\chi_{c2}(3930)$. This…
In this work, we revisit the isospin violating decays of $X(3872)$ in a coupled-channel effective field theory. In the molecular scheme, the $X(3872)$ is interpreted as the bound state of $\bar{D}^{*0}D^0/\bar{D}^0D^{*0}$ and…
Hidden-charm exotic hadrons will be searched for and investigated at future electron-ion colliders. For instance, the $X(3872)$ can be produced through the exclusive process $\gamma p\to X(3872)p$. The vector meson dominance model has been…
A search for a manifestly exotic S=-2 baryon state decaying to Xi- pi-, and its neutral partner decaying to Xi- pi+, has been performed using 220 pb^(-1) of pp= collisions at sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab.…
We explore the consequences of treating the X(3872) meson as a tetraquark bound state. As dynamical framework we employ a relativistic constituent quark model which includes infrared confinement in an effective way. We calculate the decay…
The recent discovery of a narrow resonance in D_s+pi^0 by the BABAR collaboration is consistent with the interpretation of a heavy J^P(0+,1+) spin multiplet. This system is the parity partner of the groundstate (0-,1-) multiplet, which we…
A solvable coordinate-space model is employed to study the $c\bar{c}$ component of the X(3872) wave function, by coupling a confined $^3P_1$ $c\bar{c}$ state to the almost unbound $S$-wave $D^0\bar{D}^{*0}$ channel via the $^3P_0$…
The processes $X(3872)\to D^{*0}\bar{D^{0}}+c.c.,~\gamma J/\psi,~\gamma \psi(2S),$ and $\gamma D^{+}D^{-}$ are searched for in a $9.0~\rm fb^{-1}$ data sample collected at center-of-mass energies between $4.178$ and $4.278$ GeV with the…
In the present work, we investigate the scalar, axialvector and tensor doubly-charmed tetraquark molecular states without strange, with strange and with doubly-strange via the QCD sum rules, and try to make assignment of the $T^+_{cc}$ from…
We incorporate fine-structure corrections into the dynamical diquark model of multiquark exotic hadrons. These improvements include effects due to finite diquark size, spin-spin couplings within the diquarks, and most significantly,…
Decay properties of hidden-strangeness partners of X(3872) are studied in tetra-quark pictures. As the results, it is seen that their decay properties are strongly model dependent, and therefore, experimental studies of them will select a…
In this Letter we interpret the Y(4260), a state recently discovered by the BaBar Collaboration that has a mass within the range of conventional charmonium states, as having a molecular-state structure. In our scheme this molecular-like…
We explore the quark-mass dependence of the pole position of the X(3872) state within the molecular picture. The calculations are performed within the framework of a nonrelativistic Faddeev-type three-body equation for the $D\bar{D}\pi$…
We present a study of the decays B^{0,+} --> J/psi pi^+ pi^- pi^0 K^{0,+}, using 467 10^6 BBbar pairs recorded with the BABAR detector. We present evidence for the decay mode X(3872) --> J/psi omega, with product branching fractions B(B^+…
We present measurements of the decays B+ -> X(3872) K+ and B0 -> X(3872) K0 with X(3872) -> Jpsi pi+ pi-. The data sample used, collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e- asymmetric-energy storage ring, corresponds to 455 x 10^6…
We discuss the possible production and discovery channels in $e^+e^-$ and $pp$ machines of the $X_b$, the bottomonium counterpart of $X(3872)$ and the putative isoscalar analogue of the charged bottomonium-like states $Z_b$ discovered by…
In this work we propose possible quantum numbers of X(6900) and suggest a model for it internal structure that explains its unusually high mass. We solve the Schr\"odinger Equation with Mathematica 12, first for charmonium spectrum, then…
Assuming X(3872) is a $qc \bar q \bar c$ tetraquark and using its mass as input, we perform a schematic study of the masses of possible heavy tetraquarks using the color-magnetic interaction with the flavor symmetry breaking corrections.
