We conduct systematic calculations of the S-wave fully strange systems with ``normal" $\left(J^{P C}=0^{++}, 1^{+-}, 2^{++}\right)$ and ``exotic" $\left(J^{P C}=0^{+-}, 1^{++}, 2^{+-}\right)$ C-parities, which are the strange analogue of…
A multichannel calculation of excited $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ $\phi$ states is carried out within a generalization of the Resonance-Spectrum Expansion, which may shed light on the classification of the $\phi(2170)$ resonance, discovered by BABAR…
We consider a recent $T$-matrix analysis by Albaladejo {\it et al.}, [Phys.\ Lett.\ B {\bf 755}, 337 (2016)] which accounts for the $J/\psi\pi$ and $D^\ast\bar{D}$ coupled--channels dynamics, and that successfully describes the experimental…
We study the mass spectra of D-wave excited $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ tetraquark states with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ and $1^{+-}$ in both symmetric $\mathbf{6}_{cs}\otimes\bar{\mathbf{6}}_{\bar{c}\bar{s}}$ and antisymmetric…
The recently discovered fully charmed tetraquark candidate $X(6900)$ is analyzed within the frameworks of effective-range expansion, compositeness relation and width saturation, and a coupled multichannel dynamical study. By taking into…
Over the past two decades, numerous exotic hadron states have been discovered, yet their underlying nature remains unclear. It is widely acknowledged that understanding hadron-hadron interactions is essential to unraveling their properties.…
The QCD sum rule approach is used to analyze the nature of the rencently observed new resonance $X(4350)$, which is assumed to be a diquark-antidiquark state $[cs][\bar{c}\bar{s}]$ with $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$. The interpolating current…
We systematically investigate the mass spectrum and two-body open-charm strong decays of charmonium states in a coupled-channel model where the $^3P_0$ quark-antiquark pair creation mechanism is employed. The results of masses, mass shifts,…
We study the possible charmonium-like states with $J^{PC}=0^{--}, 0^{-+}$ using the tetraquark interpolating currents with the QCD sum rules approach. The extracted masses are around 4.5 GeV for the $0^{--}$ charmonium-like states and 4.6…
We study the $J/\psi \pi$ and $D\bar{D}^*$ coupled-channel system within a covariant framework. The $J/\psi \pi$ and $D\bar{D}^*$ invariant-mass distributions measured at 4.23~GeV and 4.26~GeV by BESIII and the finite-volume energy levels…
4FGL J0935.5+0901, a $\gamma$-ray source recently identified as a candidate redback-type millisecond pulsar binary (MSP), shows an interesting feature of having double-peaked emission lines in its optical spectrum. The feature would further…
We report on some properties of the newly observed charged hidden-charmed open strange $ Z_{cs}(3985)^- $ state by BESIII Collaboration. Assigning the quantum numbers $ J^{P} = 1^{+}$ and the quark composition $ c \bar c s\bar u $ and…
Many mesons with properties incompatible with a $\bar cc$ structure have already been discovered, e.g. the $Z_c$ mesons with isospin 1. We investigate the spectrum of exotic charmonium-like mesons using lattice QCD. The focus is on $\bar cc…
The observation of $Z_c(3900)$ by the BESIII collaboration in the invariant mass spectrum of $J/\psi\pi^\pm$ in $e^+e^-\to J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-$ at the center of mass 4.260 GeV suggests the existence of a charged $\bar D D^*+D\bar D^*$…

The results of the broadband spectral and timing study of the recently discovered transient X-ray pulsar MAXI J0903-531 in a wide range of luminosities differing by a factor of ~30 are reported. The observed X-ray spectrum in both states…
We study the nature of the recently observed $P_{cs}(4459)$ by the LHCb collaboration by employing three methods based on the elastic effective-range expansion and the resulting size of the effective-range, the saturation of the…
The original charmonium two-body problem, like the $c\bar c$ structure of the $J/\psi$ meson, has become more involved in the last few years with the discovery of new resonances such as the tentative molecular state $X(3872)$ or the…
We present the interpretation that the recently discovered Z^+(4430) by the Belle Collaboration can be a radial excitation of the cs-bar state. We give an explicit cs-bar candidate for this state by calculating the mass value in our…
