Cooperative effects such as super- and subradiance can be observed in the fluorescence emitted by a system of N atoms in vacuum, after interaction with a laser beam. In the vicinity of a dielectric or metallic surface, Casimir-Polder…

We identify the recently observed charmonium-like structure $Z_c^\pm(3900)$ as the charged partner of the X(3872) state. Using standard techniques of QCD sum rules, we evaluate the three-point function and extract the coupling constants of…

We study the $DN$ and $D^\ast N$ interactions to probe the inner structure of $\Sigma_c(2800)$ and $\Lambda_c(2940)$ with the chiral effective field theory to the next-to-leading order. We consider the contact term, one-pion-exchange and…

The isovector and isoscalar $ND$ $s$-wave scattering lengths are extracted by fitting to the LHCb data of the $pD^0$ invariant-mass distribution in the decay $\Lambda_b\rightarrow\pi^-pD^0$, making use of the cusp effect at the $nD^+$…

We demonstrate that the spectacular structures discovered recently in various experiments and named as $X$, $Y$ and $Z$ states cannot be purely kinematic effects. Their existence necessarily calls for nearby poles in the $S$--matrix and…

We study the newly observed charmoniumlike state $Z_{cs}(3985)$ in the framework of chiral effective field theory. The interaction kernel of the $\bar{D}_sD^\ast/\bar{D}^\ast_sD$ system is calculated up to the next-to-leading order with the…

We apply a three-dimensional (3D) approach to investigate the quasi-stationary states of well-deformed $\alpha$-emitters. With a splitting of the anisotropic 3D potential into internal and external parts at a separation surface, the 3D…

We use numerical simulations to investigate the behaviour of the dipole moment of the spatial distribution of different kinds of mass tracers. We select density peaks of the simulated matter distribution with mean separations of 38 and 30…

We estimate the di-photon coupling of $f_0(600)$, $f_0(980)$ and $f_2(1270)$ resonances in a coupled channel dispersive approach. The $f_0(600)$ di-photon coupling is also reinvestigated using a single channel $T$ matrix for $\pi\pi$…

By solving the Lippmann-Schwinger equation, possible hadronic molecules in the $D^*\bar K$-$D\bar K^*$ coupled-channel system are investigated with the one-meson exchange potentials, where both vector and pseudoscalar mesons are considered…

Whether the $Y(4260)$ can couple to open charm channels has been a crucial issue for understanding its nature. The available experimental data suggest that the cross section line shapes of exclusive processes in $e^+e^-$ annihilations have…

The enigmatic charged states $Z_c(3900)$, $Z_c(4020)$, $Z_c(4050)$, $Z_b(10610)$, and $Z_b(10650)$ are studied within a coupled-channel Schr\"odinger model, where radially excited quark-antiquark pairs, with the same angular momenta and…

Being stimulated by the recent BESIII observation of a charged charmoniumlike structure $Z_c(3900)$, in this work we study the distributions of the $J/\psi\pi^\pm$ and $\pi^+\pi^-$ invariant mass spectra of the $Y(4260)\to \pi^+\pi^-…

We perform a calculation of the interaction of the $ D \bar{D} $, $ D_{s} \bar{D}_{s} $ coupled channels and find two bound states, one coupling to $ D \bar{D} $ and another one at higher energies coupling mostly to $D_{s}^{+} D_{s}^{-}$.…

We study the behavior of the cusp structures focusing on the isospin symmetry breaking effects. The properties of the exotic hadrons are reflected in the shape of the cusp structures. In realistic hadron scatterings, the threshold energies…

The complexity of threshold phenomena is exemplified on a prominent and long-known case - the structure in the $\Lambda p$ cross section (invariant mass spectrum) at the opening of the $\Sigma N$ channel. The mass splitting between the…

Using chiral effective field theory, we predict that there must be isovector charmonium-like $D\bar D^*$ hadronic molecules with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ denoted as $W_{c1}$. The inputs are the properties of the $X(3872)$, including its mass and the…

In this study, we propose using the $Z_c(3900)$ pole position to constrain the existence of the $DDD^*$ three-body bound state within the one-boson-exchange (OBE) model. The existence of the $DDD^*$ bound state remains uncertain due to…
