The mass, decay constant and width of a hypothetical charmed partner $X_c$ of the newly observed exotic $X_b(5568)$ state are calculated using a technique of QCD sum rule method. The $X_c=[su][\overline{c}\overline{d}]$ state with…

We present a study of $B\to X(3872)K$ with X(3872) decaying to $D^{*0}\bar D^0$ using a sample of 657 million $B\bar B$ pairs recorded at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider.…

We use the QCD sum rules to study possible $B_c$-like molecular states. We consider isoscalar $J^P = 0^+$ and $J^P = 1^+ D^{(\ast)}B^{(\ast)}$ molecular currents. We consider the contributions of condensates up to dimension eight and we…

The $P_c(4380)^+$ and $P_c(4450)^+$ states recently discovered at LHCb have masses close to several relevant thresholds, which suggests they can be described in terms of meson-baryon degrees of freedom. This article explores the…

The present day experimental data on the $X(3872)$ decays do not allow to make clear conclusions on the dominating structure of this state. We discuss here an alternative way to study its structure by means of the two-step $\bar D^*$ (or…

The masses and decay constants of the ground state heavy $\chi_{Q2}(Q=b,c)$ tensor mesons are calculated in the framework of the QCD sum rules approach. The obtained results on the masses are in good consistency with the experimental…

The radiative decays $ B^{*} (D^{*})\to B(D) \gamma$ are investigated in the framework of light cone QCD sum rules. The transition amplitude and decay rates are estimated.It is shown that our results on branching ratios of D meson decays…

We apply the method of QCD sum rules to study the structure $X$ newly observed by the BESIII Collaboration in the $\phi \eta^\prime$ mass spectrum in 2.0-2.1 GeV region in the $J/\psi \rightarrow \phi \eta \eta^\prime$ decay. We construct…

In this article, we take into account our previous calculations based on the QCD sum rules, and tentatively assign the $X(4630)$ as the $D_s^*\bar{D}_{s1}-D_{s1}\bar{D}_s^*$ tetraquark molecular state or…

Heavy-quark symmetry as applied to heavy hadron systems implies that their interactions are independent of their heavy-quark spin (heavy-quark spin symmetry) and heavy flavour contents (heavy flavour symmetry). In the molecular hypothesis…

We present results on the X(3872), produced in $B^+ \to X(3872) K^+$ and $B^0 \to X(3872) K^0_S$ decays where $X(3872) \to J/\psi \pi^+ \pi^-$. We report the first statistically significant observation of $B^0 \to X(3872) K^0_S$ and measure…

Several observed states close to the $D\bar{D}^*$ and $D^*_{(s)}\bar{D}^*_{(s)}$ thresholds, as the X(3872) and some XYZ particles can be described in terms of a two-meson molecule. Furthermore, doubly charmed states are also predicted.…

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…

The chiral symmetry of QCD requires energy-dependent pionic strong interactions at low energies. This constraint, however, is not fulfilled by the usual Breit--Wigner parameterization of pionic resonances, leading to masses larger than the…

We present a QCD sum rule analysis for the newly observed resonance $X_{c}(3250)$ by assuming it as a $D_{0}^{*}(2400)N$ molecular state. Technically, contributions of operators up to dimension 12 are included in the operator product…

Many of the $XYZ$ resonances observed by the Belle, Babar, CLEO and BESIII collaborations in the past decade are difficult to interpret as conventional quark-antiquark mesons, motivating the consideration of scenarios such as multi-quark…

We explore features of the scalar structure $X_0(2900)$, which is one of the two resonances discovered recently by LHCb in the $D^{-}K^{+}$ invariant mass distribution in the decay $B^{+} \to D^{+}D^{-}K^{+}$. We treat $ X_0(2900)$ as a…

The often used Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner mass formula for Nambu-Goldstone (NG) bosons in QCD, such as the pions, involves the condensate $<\overline{q}q>$, $f_{\pi}$ and the quark current masses. Within the context of the Global Colour Model…

We present an analysis of the newly observed pentaquark $P_c(4312)^+$ to shed light on its quantum numbers. To do that, the QCD sum rule approach is used. The measured mass of this particle is close to $\Sigma_c^{++}\bar{D}^-$ threshold and…

Since the low mass of $D^*_{s0}(2317)$ has still been a problem to the conventional quark model, one can consider other options regarding as multi-quark system. Therefore we investigate the scalar open-charm state $D^*_{s0}(2317)$ by…
