In the quark model, hadrons are dominantly bound states of quark-antiquark pairs (mesons) or three quarks (baryons), but QCD also allows hadronic states to be composed of more quarks bound together. Recently, BESIII, Belle and LHCb have…
We apply three forward light-by-light scattering sum rules to charmonium states. We show that these sum rules imply a cancellation between charmonium bound state contributions, which are mostly known from the $\gamma \gamma$ decay widths of…
In the past decade many charmonium-like states were observed experimentally. Especially those charged charmonium-like $Z_c$ states and bottomonium-like $Z_b$ states can not be accommodated within the naive quark model. These charged $Z_c$…
This review presents an overview of the remarkable progress in the field of heavy-quark exotic hadrons over the past 15 years. It seeks to be pedagogical rather than exhaustive, summarizing both the progress and specific results of…
I classify exotic hadrons into two types, "genuine" and "hidden" exotics, and propose that the "hidden" exotics would be interpreted as "chiralons" in the ~U(12)_SF times O(3,1)_L-classification scheme of hadrons. Based upon this conjecture…
With its unique data samples at energies of 3.8--4.6 GeV, the BESIII experiment made a significant contribution to the study of charmonium and charmonium-like states, i.e., the XYZ states. We review the results for observations of the…
Very recently a new hadronic structure around $3.98$ GeV was observed in BESIII experiment. From its decay modes, it is reasonable for people to assign it to the category of exotic state, say $Z^+_{cs}$, the stranged-parter of…
Mass spectrum of charmonium is computed in the framework of potential non-relativistic quantum chromodynamics. \textit{O}$(1/m)$ and \textit{O}$(1/m^2)$ relativistic corrections to the Cornell potential and spin-dependent potential have…
Within the past ten years many new hadrons states were observed experimentally, some of which do not fit into the conventional quark model. I will talk about the few-body systems composed of heavy quarks, including the charmonium-like…
The charmonium system has several excited states below the energy threshold for decay into $D$ and $\bar{D}$ mesons, which can in principle be studied accurately in lattice QCD. Studies that include many states in the spectrum have…
In this work, the spectra of the prospective exotic hidden-charm and hidden-bottom baryonium, viz. the baryon-antibaryon states, with $J^{PC}=0^{--}$ and $0^{+-}$ are investigated in the framework of QCD sum rules. The non-perturbative…
Lattice QCD approach to study the hadronic resonances and exotic hadrons is described at an introductory level. The main challenge is that these states decay strongly via one or more decay channels, and they often lie near thersholds.…
In this study, we utilize light-cone QCD sum rules at twist-3 accuracy to compute the coupling parameters of the $\chi_{c1}(2P)$ state with $D$ and $D^*$ mesons. The analysis reveals that the observed $\chi_{c1}(3872)$ meson incorporates…
We present highly-excited charmonium, $D_s$ and $D$ meson spectra from dynamical lattice QCD calculations with light quarks corresponding to $M_{\pi} \sim 240$ MeV and compare these to previous results with $M_{\pi} \sim 400$ MeV. Utilising…
The problem of calculating the electron-positively charged particle correlation energy poses a challenge in the field of quantum chemistry beyond the adiabatic approximation. In this study, a toy model called Exotic Harmonium is developed…
We present a selection of recent results from the BESIII collaboration, including both charmonium and $D$ meson physics. We first discuss the observation of a charged, charmonium-like state, the $Z_c(3900)$. Conventional charmonium topics…
Most of the exotic hadrons discovered over the last 20 years fit into the quark model as normal mesons and baryons if the existence of a seventh flavor of quark is hypothesized. If the quark has a mass of $\sim$2.9 GeV, a charge of…
Meson states with exotic quantum numbers arise naturally in a covariant bound-state framework in QCD. We investigate the consequences of shifting quark masses such that the states are no longer restricted to certain C-parities, but only by…
Motivated by the LHCb's new observation of structures in the $J/\psi$-pair invariant mass spectrum, for which could be classified as possible $cc\bar{c}\bar{c}$ tetraquark candidates, we systematically study $0^{+}$ fully-charmed tetraquark…
We propose a novel type of interpolating field operators, which manifests the hybrid-like configuration that the charm quark-antiquark pair recoils against gluonic degrees of freedom. A heavy vector charmonium-like state with a mass of…
