Decay property of hidden-charm tetra-quark mesons is studied. It is seen that estimated width of iso-triplet odd $\mathcal{C}$ partners of X(3872), although still crude, is compatible with the measured ones of Z_c(3900). It is pointed out…

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…

Decays of hidden-charm scalar tetra-quark mesons as the partners of D_{s0}(2317) which has successfully been assigned to the iso-triplet scalar tetra-quark [c,n][sbar,nbar]_{I=1} meson are studied. Because OZI-rule allowed strong decays are…

Typical candidates of open- and hidden-charm tetra-quark mesons are studied through their decays and productions, and are compared with conventional mesons. In addition, it is proposed how to confirm experimentally that they are tetra-quark…

A new tetra-quark interpretation of X(3872) is presented. In this model, X(3872) consists of two degenerate tetra-quark mesons, {[cn](cbar nbar) +- (cn)[cbar nbar]}_{I=0}, and, therefore, it is naturally understood that X(3872) decays into…

We discuss how the latest data on X(3872) in B and B_s decays speak about its tetraquark nature. The established decay pattern, including the up to date observations by CMS, are explained by the mixing of two quasi-degenerate, unresolvable,…

The isovector partners of the X(3872), recently found at BES III, Belle and CLEO-c were predicted in a simple model based on the chromomagnetic interaction among quarks (H. Hogaasen, J-M. Richard and P. Sorba, Phys. Rev. D73, 054013, 2006).…

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 relation to the newly observed bottom-strange X^{+,-}(5568) mesons, we revisit our tetra-quark interpretation of X(3872) and Z_c(3900). It is discussed that our assignment of X^{+,-}(5568) to charged components of iso-triplet bottom…

The charmless decay processes of $X(3872)$ provide us a good platform to study the nature and the decay mechanism of $X(3872)$. Based on a molecular nature of $X(3872)$ as a $\bar{D}D^*$ bound state, we have investigated the charmless…

Hidden-charm strong decays of the spin-2 partner $X_2(4014)$ of the charmonium-like state $X(3872)$ have been studied in the framework of the covariant confined quark model. The exotic state $X_2$ has been interpreted as a four-quark state…

In this letter, we propose interpolating currents for the X(3872) resonance, and show that, in the Heavy Quark limit of QCD, the X(3872) state should have degenerate partners, independent of its internal structure. Magnitudes of possible…

X(3872) presents many surprises after its discovery more than ten years ago. Understanding its properties is crucial to understand the spectrum of possible exotic mesons. In this work, X(3872) meson and its heavy quark spin symmetry (HQSS)…

Since the discovery of the $X(3872)$ the study of heavy meson molecules has been the subject of many investigations. On the experimental side different experiments have looked for its spin partners and the bottom analogs. On the theoretical…

By studying the decays D_{s0}^+(2317) --> D_s^+ pi^0 and D_s^{*+} gamma, It is shown that its assignment to the I_3=0 component of iso-triplet scalar four-quark mesons is favored. Productions of its neutral and doubly charged partners are…

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…

We investigate heavy quark symmetries for heavy meson hadronic molecules, and explore the consequences of assuming the X(3872) and $Z_b(10610)$ as an isoscalar $D\bar D^*$ and an isovector $B\bar B^*$ hadronic molecules, respectively. The…
