Using the Fixed Center Approximation to Faddeev equations we have investigated the $DKK$ and $DK\bar{K}$ three-body systems, considering that the $DK$ dynamically generates, through its $I=0$ component, the $D^*_{s0}(2317)$ molecule.…
The $D_{s0}^*(2317) D$ and $D_{s1}^*(2460) D^*$ heavy meson systems can exchange a kaon that is emitted in S-wave owing to the opposite intrinsic parity of the $D_{s0}^*$($D_{s1}^*$) and $D$($D^*$) mesons. As a consequence of the mass…
Charmonium-like resonances and bound states with isospin zero and $J^{PC}=0^{++},~1^{--},~2^{++},~3^{--}$ are extracted on the lattice. Coupled $D\bar D$ and $D_s\bar D_s$ scattering suggests three charmonium-like states with…

We investigate the $J^{PC}=(0,2)^{++}$ $\eta_c \eta_c$ and $J/\psi J/\psi$ scatterings in $N_f=2$ lattice QCD at two pion masses $m_\pi\approx 420$\,MeV and 250\,MeV. The quark field smearing scheme used in the distillation method strongly…
We study the properties of $D$ and $D^*$ mesons in nuclear matter within a simultaneous self-consistent coupled-channel unitary approach that implements heavy-quark symmetry. The in-medium solution accounts for Pauli blocking effects, and…
The exploration of energies above the open-flavor threshold in the meson spectra has led to the appearance of unexpected states difficult to accommodate in the naive picture of a bound state of a quark and an antiquark. Many of such states…
We present a calculation of the spectrum of low-lying D and D_s mesons calculated on 2+1 flavor configurations with Clover-Wilson quarks generated by the PACS-CS collaboration. S- and P-wave states are explored for pion masses down to…
We investigate the interplay of quark and meson degrees of freedom in a physical state representing a near-threshold resonance for the case of a single continuum channel. We demonstrate that such a near-threshold resonance may possess quite…

We carry out a systematic study of the heavy-light meson strong decays in a chiral quark model. For the $S$-wave vectors ($D^*(2007)$, $D^{*\pm}(2010)$), $P$-wave scalars ($D^*_0(2400)$, $B^*_0(5730)$) and tensors ($D^*_2(2460)$,…
A semi-relativistic potential model is adopted to calculate the mass spectra of charmed and charmed-strange meson states up to the $2D$ excitations.The strong decay properties are further analyzed with a chiral quark model by using the…
