Inspired by the newly observed $X$(4160) and $X$(3915) states, we analyze the mass spectrum of these states in different quark models and calculate their strong decay widths by the $^3P_0$ model. According to the mass spectrum of charmonium…

We search for the weak decays $\psi(2S)\to D_s^-\pi^+ + c.c.$ and $\psi(2S)\to D_s^-\rho^+ + c.c.$ for the first time. The search is based on $(2712.4\pm14.3)\times 10^6$ events containing the charmonium state $\psi(2S)$ collected at the…

Results are reported based on samples of 58 million $\jpsi$ and 14 million $\psip$ decays obtained by the BESII experiment. Improved branching fraction measurements are determined, including branching fractions for $\jpsi\to\ppp$, $\psip\ra…

Using 8.5M B-anti-B events recorded by the BABAR detector the yield of inclusive J/psi, the branching ratios of psi(2S) and chi_C1 are presented. Combining the charmonium state with either a K+,KS, K*+ or K*0 exclusive B decays are…

We study the process e+e- to pi+pi-J/psi at a center-of-mass energy of 4.260 GeV using a 525 pb^{-1} data sample collected with the BESIII detector operating at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider. The Born cross section is measured to…

We report the observation of a narrow peak in the KsK-pi+ invariant mass distribution in a sample of exclusive B-->K KsK-pi+ decays collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy e+e- collider. The measured mass of the peak…

Using a sample of 102 million $\Upsilon(1S)$ events collected with the Belle detector, we report on the first search for charge-parity-even charmonium and charmonium-like states in $\Upsilon(1S)$ radiative decays. No significant $\chi_{cJ}$…

We search for the process $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow \pi ^{+}\pi ^{-} \chi_{cJ}$ ($J=0,1,2$) and for a charged charmonium-like state in the $\pi ^{\pm} \chi_{cJ}$ subsystem. The search uses data sets collected with the BESIII detector at the…

The newly reported Y(4260) becomes the second most massive state in the charmonium family. We argue that it displaces the psi(4415) as the (largely) 4s vector charmonium state, recall s-d wave interference to explain the lack of a signal in…

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…

The vector charmoniumlike state $Y(4220)$ was reported recently in the cross sections of $e^+e^-\to \omega \chi_{c0}$, $\pi^+\pi^-h_c$, $\pi^+\pi^- J/\psi$, and $D^0 D^{*-}\pi^+ + c.c.$ measured by the BESIII experiment. A combined fit is…

The discovery of numerous new charmonium-like structures since 2003 have revitalized interest in exotic meson spectroscopy. These structures do not fit easily into the conventional charmonium model, and proposals like four-quark states,…

Very recently, the Belle and BESIII experiments observed a new charmonium-like state $X(3823)$, which is a good candidate for the $D$-wave charmonium $\psi(1^3D_2)$. Because the $X(3823)$ is just near the $D\bar{D}^*$ threshold, the decay…

We investigate $S$-wave coupled-channel effects in $e^+e^-$ annihilation in the energy region $\sqrt{s}\in[4.0,5.5]\,\mathrm{GeV}$, including the open-charm final states $\Lambda_c^+\bar{\Lambda}_c^-$, $\Xi_c^+\bar{\Xi}_c^-$,…

We present evidence for the exotic charged charmonium-like state $Z_c^{\pm}(3900)$ in semi-inclusive weak decays of $b$-flavored hadrons. The signal is correlated with a $J/\psi \pi^+ \pi^-$ system in the invariant mass range 4.2$-$4.7~GeV…

We report the results of a search for the $B \to Y(4260) K, ~Y(4260)\to J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-$ decays. This study is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711~fb$^{-1}$, collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance…

If the $X(3872)$ is described by the picture as a mixture of the charmonium and molecular $D^{\ast} D$ states; $Y(3940)$ as a mixture of the $\chi_{c0}$ and $D^\ast D^\ast$ states; and $X(4260)$ as a mixture of the tetra-quark and…

We report recent results on the properties of the X(3872) produced via the B+ --> K+ X(3872) decay process. We observe X -->pi+pi-pi0 J/psi decays where the 3pi invariant masses cluster near the upper kinematic boundary suggesting that they…

We present a concise review of the vector charmonium state $\psi(4230)$, which was originally labelled as $Y(4260)$ in the literature. As one of the earliest candidates for a QCD exotic states, its interpretation has initiated various ideas…

In this short review we present and discuss all the experimental information about the charged exotic charmonium states, which have been observed over the last five years. We try to understand their properties such as masses and decay…
