Studies of charmonium properties and production mechanism started with the discovery of $J/\psi$ meson. Since more than 40 years the charmonium production mechanism is still not entirely understood. Following the era of investigations at…
Based on the data sample of $2.7\times 10^{9}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, this contribution presents recent advances in baryon spectroscopy. Key results from amplitude analyses of the decay channels $\psi(3686)…
We present recent results from the BES experiment on the observation of the Y(2175) in $J/\psi\to \phi f_0(980) \eta$, and $\eta(2225)$ in $J/\psi\to \gamma \phi \phi$, and X(1440) in $J/\psi$ hadronic decays, together with the new…
In this talk, recent measurements of charmonium decays of BESIII are presented. Using 448 million $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, the branching fractions of the decays $\chi_{cJ} \to \phi \phi (J=0,1,2)$ have been…
We review recent results on charmonium-like exotic states from the Belle experiment. The two-photon process $\gamma \gamma \to \phi \jpsi$ is measured to search for Y(4140). No signal for the $Y(4140) \to \phi \jpsi$ is observed. But a…
The ALICE Collaboration at the LHC has measured the J/$\psi$ and $\psi^{'}$ photoproduction at mid-rapidity in ultra-peripheral Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}=2.76$ TeV. The charmonium is identified via its leptonic decay for events…
In this work, we investigate the open-charm decay process $\psi\to\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ via the hadronic loop mechanism for vector charmonia above $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ threshold. The branching ratios of these vector charmonium…
We present measurements of the charmonium state $h_c(^1P_1)$ made with 106M $\psi'$ events collected by BESIII at BEPCII. Clear signals are observed for $\psi'\to\pi^0 h_c$ with and without the subsequent radiative decay…
We suggest that $\psi$ (4040) and $\psi$ (4160) are strong mixtures of ground state hybrid charmonium at $\sim 4.1$ GeV and the $\psi (3S)$ of conventional charmonium. The $\Gamma^{e^+e^-}$, masses and total widths of the $\psi(4040)$ and…
The statistical properties of Charmonium energy spectrum determined by the Bethe-Salpeter equation are investigated. It is found that the regular motion of the $c\bar{c}$ system can be expected at a small value of color screening mass but…
The cross sections for e+e- to pi+pi-J/psi, pi+pi-psi(2S), K+K-J/psi, DDbar, DDbar pi, D*Dbar, and D*D*bar are measured using data sample collected on or near the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at KEKB. A peak near 4.25…
Mass differences of the charmonium mesons $\psi$(3770), $X$(3872), $\chi$(3929), $X$(3940), $\psi$(4040), $\psi$(4160), $X$(4259) and $\psi$(4415) have been studied. The analysis of data has shown, 5 of 7 mass differences with $\psi$(4415)…

Some recent results on light meson physics are reviewed. The new evidence of low mass scalar mesons together with an improved measurement of the phi radiative decays in scalar mesons, give new insight into the nature and the structure of…
Many exotic charmonium resonances have been identified recently in experiment, however their nature and properties are mostly unknown. Algorithmic and theoretical progress in lattice calculations has enabled reliable numerical investigation…
The weak decays of charmonium states such as $J/\psi$ and $\psi(2S)$ are instrumental in probing both nonperturbative QCD dynamics and the flavor structure of the Standard Model (SM). The extreme rarity of charmonium weak decays renders…
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…
