The lattice QCD simulations of charmonia and exotic charmonium-like states are reviewed. I report on the first exploratory simulation of charmonium resonances above open charm threshold which takes into account the strong decay. The puzzles…
We use QCD sum rules to test the nature of the meson X(3872), assumed to be a mixture between charmonium and exotic molecular [c\bar{q}][q\bar{c}] states with J^{PC}=1^{++}. We find that there is only a small range for the values of the…
A recent quark-model description of X(3872) as an unquenched $2\,{}^{3\!}P_1$ $c\bar{c}$ state is generalised by now including all relevant meson-meson configurations, in order to calculate the widths of the experimentally observed…
We present the first theoretical prediction of the production rate of $1^{-+}$ light hybrid meson $\eta_1$ in $J/\psi$ radiative decays. In the $N_f=2$ lattice QCD formalism with the pion mass $m_\pi\approx 350$ MeV, the related…
We perform a lattice QCD calculation of the $\eta_c\to2\gamma$ decay width using a model-independent method that requires no momentum extrapolation of the off-shell form factors. This method also provides a straightforward and simple way to…
We present a quark model calculation of the charmonium spectrum with self energy corrections due to the coupling to the meson-meson continuum. The bare masses used in the calculation are computed within the relativized quark model by…
We present a realistic lattice QCD study on low-energy $N$-$J/\psi$ and $N$-$\eta_c$ interactions based on (2+1) flavor configurations with nearly physical pion mass $m_\pi=146$ MeV. The interactions, extracted from the spacetime…
Contrary to almost standard opinion that the X(3872) resonance is the D^{*0}\bar D^0+c.c. molecule or the qc\bar q\bar c four-quark state, we discuss the scenario where the X(3872)resonance is the c\bar c = \chi_{c1}(2P) charmonium which…
The 1D2 charmonium assignment for the X(3872) meson is considered, as prompted by a recent result from the BABAR Collaboration, favouring 2-+ quantum numbers for the X. It is shown that established properties of the X(3872) are in a drastic…
We present an exploratory $N_f=2$ lattice QCD study of $\psi_2(3823)\to \gamma \chi_{c1}$ at a pion mass $m_{\pi}\approx 350$~MeV. The related two-point and three-piont functions are calculated using the distillation method. The…
We present the energy spectra of the low lying doubly-charmed baryons using lattice quantum chromodynamics. We precisely predict the ground state mass of the charmed-strange Omega(cc) (1/2+) baryon to be 3712(11)(12) MeV which could well be…
We present the results of our lattice QCD computation of the hadronic matrix elements relevant to the $h_{c}\to \eta_{c}\gamma$ and $h_{b}\to \eta_{b}\gamma$ decays by using the gauge configurations produced by the Extended Twisted Mass…
We calculate the J/{\psi} mass, leptonic width and radiative decay rate to \gamma \eta_c from lattice QCD including u, d and s quarks in the sea for the first time. We use the Highly Improved Staggered Quark formalism and nonperturbatively…
Lattice QCD results on the spectroscopy of charmonium(like) states and open charm mesons are reviewed. Near-threshold states X(3872) and D_{s0}^*(2317) were treated rigorously for the first time and the searches for Z_c^+(3900), X(4140) and…
By analyzing existing data on pseudoscalar charmonium decays, we obtain the ratio of the branching fractions of $\eta_c(2S)$ and $\eta_c$ decays into ten different final states with light hadrons. For the first time, we test the two…
Masses of the eta and eta-prime mesons are estimated in Nf=2+1 lattice QCD with the non-perturbatively O(a) improved Wilson quark action and the Iwasaki RG-improved gluon action, using CP-PACS/JLQCD configurations on a 16^3 x 32 lattice at…
Very recently the BaBar collaboration has put forward a claim that the X(3872) is not a 1^++ resonance, as most of the phenomenological work on the subject was relying on, but rather a 2^-+ one. We examine the consequences of this quantum…
In the decays of $\eta_c\to\gamma\gamma$ and $J/\psi\to\gamma\eta_c$, there are discrepancies between the theoretical calculations and the PDG experimental values, referred to as the charmonium QCD puzzle. We observe the decay…
In this paper we consider all possible 1D and 2P ccbar assignments for the recently discovered X(3872). Taking the experimental mass as input, we give numerical results for the E1 radiative widths as well as the three principal types of…
Since the discovery of X(3872), its structure has been in ceaseless dispute. The data of $X(3872)\rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0 J/\psi$ suggest that X(3872) may be a high-spin charmonium-like of $2^{-+}$. In terms of the light front quark…
