The mixing mechanism of axial-vectors $D_{s1}(2460)$ and $D_{s1}(2536)$ is studied via intermediate hadron loops, e.g. $D^* K$, to which both states have strong couplings. By constructing the two-state mixing propagator matrix that respects…
We compute masses of $D$ meson, $D_s$ meson and charmonium states using $N_f=2+1+1$ Wilson twisted mass lattice QCD. All results are extrapolated to physical light quark masses, physical strange and charm quark masses and to the continuum.…
The observation of the D_{sJ}^*(2317), D_{sJ}(2460), and SELEX D^*_{sJ}(2632) states with properties differing considerably from what was expected has led to a renewed interest in hadron spectroscopy. In addition to these states,…
The problem of scalar mesons still remains a challenging puzzle, for which we do not even know which are the right pieces to set up. The proliferation of resonances (some of them are very broad and appear on top of hadronic thresholds) and…
A scattering resonance is one of the most striking quantum effects in low-temperature molecular collisions. Predicted decades ago theoretically, they have only been resolved experimentally for systems involving at most four atoms. Extension…
We investigate the enhancement in the D^0\bar{D}^0\pi^0 final state with the mass M=3875.2\pm 0.7^{+0.3}_{-1.6}\pm 0.8 MeV found recently by the Belle Collaboration in the B\to K D^0\bar{D}^0\pi^0 decay and test the possibility that this is…
The classification of scalar and vector mesons is reviewed within the framework of the Resonance-Spectrum Expansion (RSE). This method allows a simple and straightforward description of non-exotic meson-meson scattering, incorporating the…
Results are presented for the low-lying spectrum of D and D_s mesons calculated in lattice QCD using 2+1 flavor Clover-Wilson configurations made available by the PACS-CS collaboration. For the heavy quark, the Fermilab method is employed.…
Masses and widths of the charmed axial-vector mesons $D_1(2420)$, $D_1(2430)$, $D_{s1}(2536)$, and $D_{s1}(2460)$ are calculated nonperturbatively in the Resonance-Spectrum-Expansion model, by coupling various open and closed meson-meson…
Charged kaon--deuteron interactions offer a sensitive probe of the strangeness sector of QCD at low energy, particularly through their scattering parameters. Despite available theoretical predictions, experimental constraints remain absent,…
This talk summarizes the study of the dynamics of the heavy-light \bar Qq open charm and beauty mesons obtained in [1] using QCD spectral sum rules (QSSR) and motivated by the recent experimental discovery of the D{sJ}(2317) and D{sJ}(2457)…
Pion exchange in S-wave between hadrons that are themselves in a relative S-wave can shift energies by hundreds of MeV. In the case of charmed mesons $D,D^*,D_0,D_1$ a spectroscopy of quasi-molecular states may arise consistent with…
We present a study of the $D^*\rho$ system made by using the method of QCD sum rules to determine the mass of possible resonances generated in the same system. Using isospin and spin projectors, we investigate the different configurations…
The mass spectra of $D$ meson states are calculated in the framework of a relativistic independent quark model. For the present study, we have used the martin like potential for the quark confinement. Our predicted states in S-wave, $2\…
Direct detection experiments aimed at uncovering the elusive nature of dark matter (DM) have made significant progress in probing ever lower cross-sections for DM-nucleon interactions. At the same time, an upper limit in the cross-section…

Using $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $5.4\,{\rm fb}^{-1}$ collected with the LHCb detector at a center-of-mass energy of $13\,{\rm TeV}$, the $B^0\to D^-D^+K^+\pi^-$ decay is studied. A new excited $D_s^+$…

We study the possibility that the scalar mesons exist as four-quark states. The energy shift of two pseudoscalar mesons as a function of spatial lattice size makes a distinction between bound states and scattering states of four-quark…
