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…
The review on experimental results on charmonium and charmonium-like spectroscopy from B-factories is presented. Main theoretical interpretations, such as conventional charmonium, molecular state, hybrids, tetraquarks and others are…
The production of Charmonium states $\etacp$ and $\hc$ at fixed-target experiment of $pN$ collisions at HERA-$B$ is considered. It is found that the HERA-$B$ at DESY is one of the best machines in further confirming and detecting these two…
Recent data on charmonium production in B-meson decays suggest that charmonium hybrid mesons with mass ~4 GeV may be produced in B-decay via c\bar{c} colour octet operators. Some of these states are likely to be narrow with clean signatures…
Current experiments at the B factories, designed to perform precision measurements of matter-antimatter asymmetry in the B meson system, have a much broader physics reach especially in the sector of quarkonium spectroscopy. Here we present…
Charmonium spectroscopy gained renewed interest after the discovery in 2003 of the unpredicted X(3872) charmonium-like state, above the $D\overline{D}$ threshold. To date many charmonium-like states above the $D\overline{D}$ threshold have…
I review the recent $B$-factory measurements of new states which, in some cases, exhibit Charmonium-like properties, and in other cases suggest the existence of a new spectroscopy. Several theoretical interpretations of the new states have…
We report recent measurements of the CKM angle alpha using data collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. In addition to improved constraints on alpha from the…
We reexamine the production of J/Psi and other charmonium states for a variety of target-projectile choices at the SPS, in particular for the interesting comparison between S+U at 200 GeV/c and Pb+Pb at 158 GeV/c as observed in the…
The BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric e+e- collider has first started collecting data in May 1999. A study of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in B0 --> J/psi K0S and B0 --> psi(2S) K0S decays has been performed on a data…
We report on our recent measurements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa CP-violating phase gamma and of related CP-asymmetries and branching fraction ratios. The measurements have been performed on samples of up to 465 million BBbar pairs…
With about 12 fb$^{-1}$ collected XYZ data sets, BESIII continues the exploration of the exotic charmonium-like states. In this talk, recent results on the measurements of the spin-parity determination of $Z_{\rm c}(3900)$, as well as on…
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. The $BABAR$ experiment has extensively studied those in B…
We present the combination of the CKM angle gamma measurements performed by the BaBar experiment at the PEP-II e+e- collider at SLAC National Laboratory. The analysis supersedes previous results obtained by collaboration and gives…
We will present the most recent results on leptonic B decays $B^{\pm(0)} \to K^{* \pm (0)} \nu \bar{\nu}$ and $B^{\pm} \to \mu^{\pm} \nu$, based on the data collected by the BaBar detector at PEP-II, an asymmetric $e^+ e^-$ collider at the…

The BABAR detector at SLAC's PEP-II storage ring has collected data equivalent to about 30.4 fb-1 through June 2001. Results on CP violation, and in particular searches for direct CP violation, and measurement of rare B decays are…

In this work, we investigate the production of charmonium $2P$ states via the $e^+e^-\to \gamma D\bar{D}$ process at $\sqrt{s} = 4.23$ GeV. Using the measured cross-section data for $e^+e^-\to \gamma X(3872)$ as a reference, we calculate…
