The nature of the $X(3872)$ and other exotic hadrons has been a subject of extensive investigation. While various theoretical models have been proposed, experimental evidence suggests that the $X(3872)$ may be a mixture state of a hadronic…
We investigated the four-quark systems with quark structures of $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$, $cq\bar{c}\bar{s}$, $bs\bar{b}\bar{s}$, and $bq\bar{b}\bar{s}$ in the framework of the non-relativistic quark model, motivated by the recent observation of…
Recent LHCb's amplitude analysis on $B^+\to J/\psi \phi K^+$ suggests the existence of exotic $X$ and $Z_{cs}$ hadrons, based on an assumption that Breit-Wigner resonances describe all the peak structures. However, all the peaks and also…
A dynamically constrained phase-space coalescence (DCPC) model was introduced to study the exotic state $\chi_{c 1}(3872)$ yield for three possible structures: tetraquark state, nuclear-like state, and molecular state respectively, where…
The microscopic nature of the XYZ states remains an unsettled topic. We show how a thorough amplitude analysis of the data can help constraining models of these states. Specifically, we consider the case of the Zc(3900) peak and discuss…
Cross sections of the process $e^+e^-\to\pi^0\pi^0 J/\psi$ at center-of-mass energies between 3.808 and 4.600 GeV are measured with high precision by using 12.4 $fb^{-1}$ of data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the…
In this exploratory study, near-threshold scattering of $D$ and $\bar{D}^*$ meson is investigated using lattice QCD with $N_f=2+1+1$ twisted mass fermion configurations. The calculation is performed within the coupled-channel L\"uscher's…
We investigate whether the newly observed narrow resonance $Z_{c}(4025)$ can be described as a $D^{*}\bar{D^{*}}$ molecular state with quantum numbers $J^{P}=1^{+}$. Using QCD sum rules, we consider contributions up to dimension six in the…
Inspired by the BESIII observation of exotic hadron $G$(3900) in $e^+e^-\rightarrow D\bar D$ process [PRL 133(2024)081901], we use the parton and hadron cascade model PACIAE to simulate the productions of charmonium-like exotic hadrons…
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,…
A study of exclusive production of the $D \bar D$ system through initial-state r adiation is performed in a search for charmonium states, where $D=D^0$ or $D^+$. The $D^0$ mesons are reconstructed in the $D^0 \to K^- \pi^+$, $D^0 \to K^-…
It is demonstrated that the candidate tetraquark states $Z_b(10610)$, $Z_b(10650)$, $Z_c(3900)$, and $Z_c(4025)$ are coupled channel cusp effects. The model explains in a natural way the masses and quantum numbers of the putative states and…
Recently, the LHCb Collaboration reported a new structure $P_{cs}(4459)$ with a mass of 19 MeV below the $\Xi_c \bar{D}^{*} $ threshold. It may be a candidate of molecular state from the $\Xi_c \bar{D}^{*} $ interaction. In the current…
We study the $Z^\pm(4430)$ meson within a heavy hadron molecule interpretation where the $Z$ is considered as a bound state of a vector $D^\ast(2010)$ and an axial-vector $D_1(2420)$. We give predictions for the strong hidden-charm…
Using 58 million $J/\psi$ decays, we have investigated the $p \bar{p}$ invariant mass spectrum in the radiative decay $J/\psi \to \gamma p \bar{p}$ and observe a prominent structure with mass near $2m_p$. Fitting with an S-wave…
Three neutral resonances $\Xi_c(2923)^0$, $\Xi_c(2939)^0$ and $\Xi_c(2965)^0$ have been observed in the $\Lambda_c^+ K^-$ mass spectrum by the LHCb Collaboration. Given the $\Xi_c$ and $\Xi_c^\prime$ mass spectra predicted by the…
An interesting controversy has emerged challenging the widely accepted nature of the $X(3915)$ and the $X(3930)$ resonances, which had initially been assigned to the $\chi_{c0}(2P)$ and $\chi_{c2}(2P)$ $c\bar c$ states, respectively. To…
In this work, the $S$- and $P$-wave $\bar{D}^\ast K^\ast$ interactions are studied in a coupled-channel formalism to understand the recently observed $X_0(2900)$ and $X_1(2900)$ at LHCb. The experimental event distributions can be well…
The discovery of numerous new hadrons over the past two decades has provided unprecedented opportunities to understand the non-perturbative QCD and hadron structure. Hadronic molecule picture plays an important role in explaining these new…
