We present recent measurements of hadronic cross-sections from the BaBar experiment and report preliminary results on searches for pentaquark states.
The time-dependent CP asymmetries in fully reconstructed B0 --> D(*)pi/rho decays (new preliminary result), and in partially reconstructed B0 --> D(*)pi decays, are measured with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B factory at…
We present recent results from the BES experiment on the observation of the Y(2175) in J/\psi\to \phi f_0(980) \eta, study of \eta(2225) in J/\psi\to \gamma \phi \phi, and the production of X(1440) recoiling against an \omega or a \phi in…
Invoked by the recent observation of $Y(4390)$ at BESIII, which is about 40 MeV below the $D^*(2010)\bar{D}_1(2420)$ threshold, we investigate possible bound and resonance states from the $D^*(2010)\bar{D}_1(2420)$ interaction with the…
The prospects for measuring the angle gamma with present day B factories are examined. A number of approaches are discussed with reference to recent preliminary measurements based on a data sample of approximately 88 million \BB pairs…
Using a sample of $(10087\pm44)\times10^{6}$ $J/\psi$ events collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, a partial-wave analysis of the decay $\gamma\gamma\phi$ is performed to investigate the intermediate resonances in…
In this work, we perform a dynamical study of the $B^{(*)}$ and $\bar K$ interaction and show that the newly reported $X(5568)$ or $X(5616)$ cannot be assigned to be an isovector $B\bar{K}$ or $B^*\bar{K}$ molecular state. We continue to…
The cross section for e^+e^- \to \eta J/\psi between \sqrt{s}=3.8 GeV/c^2 and 5.3 GeV/c^2 is measured via initial state radiation using 980 fb^{-1} of data on and around the \Upsilon(nS)(n=1,2,3,4,5) resonances collected with the Belle…
The BESIII experiment at BEPCII at IHEP in Beijing/China has collected the world largest data sets in the $\tau$-charm region and it is well suited to cover a rich hadron physics programme, including charmonium and open-charm spectroscopy,…
Since its first observation in 2005, the vector charmonium $Y(4260)$ has turned out to be one of the prime candidates for an exotic state in the charmonium spectrum. It was recently proposed that the $Y(4260)$ should have a prominent…
With the ability to run above 4~GeV, the BESIII experiment located in the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPCII), has becoming a pioneer in searching and studying charmoniumlike states ($XYZ$ particles). In 2013, BESIII Collaboration…
We study the mass splittings of $Q_1q_2\bar{Q}_3\bar{q}_4$ ($Q=c,b$, $q=u,d,s$) tetraquark states with chromomagnetic interactions between their quark components. Assuming that $X(4140)$ is the lowest $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$…
We perform a study of the exclusive production of $D \bar D$, $D \bar D^*$, and $D^* \bar D^*$ in initial-state-radiation events, from $e^+ e^-$ annihilations at a center-of-mass energy near 10.58 GeV, to search for charmonium and possible…
Using the QCD sum rules we test if the charmonium-like structure Y(4274), observed in the $J/\psi\phi$ invariant mass spectrum, can be described with a $D_s\bar{D}_{s0}(2317)+h.c.$ molecular current with $J^{PC}=0^{-+}$. We consider the…
We present a study of hadronic transitions between Y(mS) (m=4,3,2) and Y(nS) (n=2,1) resonances based on 347.5\invfb of data taken with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage rings. We report the first observation of Y(4S)-> eta Y(1S)…
Since few years, a new family of exotic states has been appearing above the open-heavy meson thresholds: the so-called $XYZ$ states. BESIII at the BEPCII $e^+e^-$ collider plays a unique role in the study of those particles in the…

A study of exclusive production of the $D \bar D$ system through initial-state r adiation is performed in a search for charmonium states, where $D=D^0$ or $D^+$. The $D^0$ mesons are reconstructed in the $D^0 \to K^- \pi^+$, $D^0 \to K^-…
