We argue that the mass, production, total decay width, and decay pattern of the $\eta_2(1870)$ do not appear to contradict with the picture of it being the conventional $2 ^1D_2$ $q\bar{q}$ state. The possibility of the $\eta_2(1870)$ being…

The strong decays of the $\pi_2(1880)$ as the $2 ^1D_2$ quark-antiquark state are investigated in the $^3P_0$ model and the flux-tube model, respectively. The results are similar in the two models. It is found that the decay patterns of the…

We consider the $X(3872)$ resonance as a $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ $D\bar D^*$ hadronic molecule. According to heavy quark spin symmetry, there will exist a partner with quantum numbers $2^{++}$, $X_{2}$, which would be a $D^*\bar D^*$ loosely bound…

The eta(1760) may be significantly produced in J/Psi radiative decay. We deduce from experimental data that its branching ratio to two gluons is bounded, 0.4 +- 0.3 < BR(eta(1760) -> gg) < 0.9 +- 0.3, consistent with gluonic admixture.…

The exploration of exotic mesons, which transcend the conventional quark-antiquark framework, is pivotal for advancing our understanding of QCD and the strong interaction. Among these, states possessing the quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$,…

We study the production of the light $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ hybrid isoscalars $\eta_1^\prime(1855)$ and the yet undiscovered $\eta_1^{hyb}(1660)$ as intermediate states in the radiative decays of the charmonium ($J/\psi$) to two conventional…

The recently discovered $\eta_1(1855)$ and the previously observed $\pi_1(1600)$ state present a valuable opportunity for the investigation of the $J^{P(C)}=1^{-(+)}$ light hybrid nonet. In this study, we employ a semirelativistic quark…

We study the decays of the $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ hybrid nonet using a Lagrangian invariant under the flavor symmetry, parity reversal, and charge conjugation. We use the available experimental data, the lattice predictions, and the flavor…

We study the possible interpretation of the two exotic resonances $J^{PC}= 1^{-+}$ at 1400 and 1600 MeV, claimed to be observed by BNL, decaying respectively into $\eta\pi$, $\eta'\pi$, $f_{1}\pi$ and $\rho\pi$. These objects are…

The strong decays of $\Xi$ baryons up to N=2 shell were studied in a chiral quark model. The strong decay properties of these well-established ground decuplet baryons were reasonably described. We found that (i) $\Xi(1690)$ and $\Xi(1820)$…

With the assumption that the recently observed X(1835) is a baryonium state we have studied the strong decays of $X(1835) \to \eta^{(\prime)} \pi^+ \pi^-, \eta^{(\prime)} \pi^0 \pi^0$ and the electromagnetic decay of $X(1835) \to 2\gamma$…

The properties of the resonance X(3872) are discussed under the assumption that this resonance is dominantly a `molecular' $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ state of neutral $D$ and $D^*$ mesons. It is argued that in these properties should dominate the…

We study strong decays of the $\phi(2170)$, along with its possible partner $X(2436)$, as two fully-strange tetraquark states of $J^{PC} = 1^{--}$. We consider seven decay channels: $\phi \eta$, $\phi \eta^\prime$, $\phi f_0(980)$, $\phi…

Whether the much studied X(3872) is an axial or tensor resonance makes an important difference to its interpretation. A recent paper by the BaBar collaboration raised the viable hypothesis that it might be a 2-+ state based on the 3 pions…

We calculate the decay widths of both the second and the third radial excitations of $\eta$ and $\eta'$ within the framework of $^3P_0$ model. After comparing the theoretical decay widths and decay patterns with the available experimental…

The hybrid mesons form a part of the exotic spectrum of the standard model. The recent observation of the isoscalar hybrid, called the $\eta_1(1855)$, provides an important step towards the completion of the $1^{-+}$ nonet. In the present…

We report on a recent QCD based research on hybrid mesons containing $c\bar c$ or $b\bar b$ quarks. We present results for the spectrum, the decay widths to heavy quarkonium, and the role of mixing with the latter. We point out that mixing…

The possibility of Y(2175) as a $2{^3D_1}$ $s\bar{s}$ meson is studied. We study the decay of $2{^3D_1}$ $s\bar{s}$ from both the $^3P_0$ model and the flux tube model, and the results are similar in the two models. We show that the decay…

With the assumption that the $X(1835)$ and $\eta(1760)$ recently observed by the BES Collaboration are the $3\,^1S_0$ meson states, the strong decays of these two states are investigated in the $^3P_0$ decay model. We find that the…
