We review recent charmonium and charmonium-like state from the BaBar B-factory. A particular focus is given to the observation of the decay $X(3872) \to J/\psi \omega$ and to recent $\eta_{c}(1S)$ and $\eta_{c}(2S)$ results. The Observation…
In this talk, I review the recent experimental results on charmonium spectroscopy from BESIII, Belle, BaBar and CLEOc. Below the open-charm threshold, the masses and widths of spin-singlet states eta_c, eta_c(2S), h_c are measured with high…
I discuss some recent discoveries in the spectroscopy of the charmonium-like resonances, and some of their theoretical interpretations are reviewed.
The discovery of numerous new charmonium-like structures since 2003 have revitalized interest in exotic meson spectroscopy. These structures do not fit easily into the conventional charmonium model, and proposals like four-quark states,…
This talk reviews an unrepresentative selection of Belle's open-charm and charmonium analyses, focussing on new developments and topics of interest to the DIS community. Highlights include an X(3872) analysis favoring J^PC = 1++, and the…
We present new results on charmonium-like states from the BaBar experiment located at the PEP-II asymmetric energy $e^+e^-$ collider at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.
If the $X(3872)$ is described by the picture as a mixture of the charmonium and molecular $D^{\ast} D$ states; $Y(3940)$ as a mixture of the $\chi_{c0}$ and $D^\ast D^\ast$ states; and $X(4260)$ as a mixture of the tetra-quark and…
Charmonium is a bound state of a charmed quark and a charmed antiquark, and a charmoniumlike state is a resonant structure that contains at least a charmed quark-antiquark pair but has properties that are incompatible with a conventional…
Many mesons with properties incompatible with a $\bar cc$ structure have already been discovered, e.g. the $Z_c$ mesons with isospin 1. We investigate the spectrum of exotic charmonium-like mesons using lattice QCD. The focus is on $\bar cc…
We discuss the relative rates of different charmonium states and introduce an improved model for mapping the continuous ccbar mass spectrum on the physical charmonium resonances.
The past four years has witnessed the renaissance of the hadron spectroscopy. Many interesting new hadron states were discovered experimentally, some of which do not fit into the quark model easily. I will give a concise overview of these…
We present new results on charmonium and charmonium-like states from the BaBar experiment located at the PEP-II asymmetric energy $e^+e^-$ storage ring at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.
Exotic charmonium and bottonomium resonances recently discovered are discussed and interpreted as diquark-antidiquark states containing a pair of charm quarks and a pair of light, up and down, quarks. Successes, shortcomings and predictions…
While the charmonium model has been effective in describing ccbar bound mesons, there have been many recently discovered charmonium-like states it cannot accommodate. Here I provide a review of recent results from the B-factories including…
We review recent studies on exotic states at the Belle experiment. The results include: (1) The measurement of the cross sections of $\gamma \gamma \to \omega \phi$, $\phi\phi$, and $\omega \omega$ for masses that range from threshold to…
Charmonium-like resonances and bound states with isospin zero and $J^{PC}=0^{++},~1^{--},~2^{++},~3^{--}$ are extracted on the lattice. Coupled $D\bar D$ and $D_s\bar D_s$ scattering suggests three charmonium-like states with…
Many charmonium-like and bottomonium-like $XYZ$ resonances have been observed by the Belle, Babar, CLEO and BESIII collaborations in the past decade. They are difficult to fit in the conventional quark model and thus are considered as…
In this invited presentation I review some recent developments in the theory of charmonium that appear likely to be of importance for future experimental studies in this field. The specific areas considered are double charmonium production,…
One of the most intriguing puzzles in hadron spectroscopy are the numerous charmonium-like states observed in the last decade, including charged states that are manifestly exotic. Over the years, the experiment $BABAR$ has extensively…
The recent measurement results of exotic charmonium-like states, the so called XYZ particles, at BESIII have been presented. I mainly discussed the charged Zc(3900) state, its neutral partner, and possible excited states.
