New data of narrow low mass unflavoured mesonic structures are presented. A table of these exotic masses is obtained adding previously published data. The mass sequence shows a significant coupling of some of these clusters with stable…
The number of exotic candidates which are beyond the conventional quark model has grown dramatically during the last decades. Some of them could be viewed as analogues of the deuteron. Similarly, the existence of the triton indicates that…
Discriminating hadronic molecular and multi-quark states is a long standing problem in hadronic physics. We propose here to utilize relativistic heavy ion collisions to resolve this problem, as exotic hadron yields are expected to be…
The axial anomaly is responsible for the masses and mixing of the mesons $\eta$ and $\eta'$. An open question is if (and to what extent) it affects also other hadrons. We show that anomalous terms can be important to understand the…
This work investigates whether the observed 1^-+ exotic mesons are molecular states. We first use a potential model to calculate the spectra and lifetimes of the f_0(980) and a_0(980), taken to be loosely bound molecular states of K Kbar,…
The spectrum of hadronic molecules composed of heavy-antiheavy charmed hadrons has been obtained in our previous work. The potentials are constants at the leading order, which are estimated from resonance saturation. The experimental…
We studied the hadronic decays of excited states of heavy mesons (D, D_s, B and B_s) to lighter states by emission of pi, eta or K. Wavefunctions and energy levels of these excited states are determined using a Dirac equation for the light…
\pi and \eta decay modes of light baryon resonances are investigated within a chiral quark model whose hyperfine interaction is based on Goldstone-boson exchange. For the decay mechanism a modified version of the 3P0 model is employed. Our…
In the framework of the one-boson-exchange model, we have studied the interaction of the $B^*\bar{B}$ and $B^*\bar{B}^{*}$ system. After considering the S-wave and D-wave mixing, we notice that both $Z_b(10610)^\pm$ and $Z_b(10650)^\pm$ can…
We re-examine one-pion exchange as a possible binding mechanism in the X(3872) charmonium-like state and argue it to be not sufficiently binding for this purpose. We conclude therefore that other short-range dynamics are responsible for the…
We study in details the space-time dependence of the production of muonic, pionic, and other exotic atoms by the coherent photon exchange between nuclei at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. We show that a multipole expansion of the…
Spectrum of the doubly heavy tetraquarks is studied in a constituent quark model including one-pion exchange (OPE) potential. Central and tensor forces induced by OPE between two light quarks are considered. Our results show that…
The QCD analysis of the recent experimental data (L3@LEP) of the hard exclusive $\rho\rho$ production in two photon collisions shows that these data can be understood as a signal for the existence of an exotic isotensor resonance with a…
The review on the 2m propane bubble chamber experiment data analysis aimed to searches for an exotic baryon states for $K^0_s$-meson subsystems. The observation of $\Sigma^0$, $\Sigma^{*+}$(1385) and $K^{*\pm}$(892) well known resonances…
The $X(3872)$, whose mass coincides with the $D^0\bar D^{*0}$ threshold, is the most extended hadron object. Since its discovery in 2003, debates have never stopped regarding its internal structure. We propose a new object, the $X$ atom,…
A lot of exotic hadrons were reported in the past twenty years, which bring us the renaissance of the hadron spectroscopy. Most of them can be understood as hadronic molecules, whose interactions are mainly due to the exchange of light…
In this proceedings we consider several states, namely the $D^*_{s0}(2317)$, $D_{s1}(2460)$, $D^*_{0}(2300)$ and $D_{1}(2430)$, which appear to defy description as simple quark-antiquark pairs. Theoretical input from unitarized chiral…
The existence of near-threshold charmed baryon $\Lambda_c(2595)^+$ implies that the pion and the lightest, isospin-$1$ charmed baryon $\Sigma_c$ interact very strongly at extremely low energies. Using the two-flavor version of heavy hadron…
We suggest that the observed properties of the charmoniumlike resonance $X(3915)$ can possibly be explained if it is an $S-$wave molecular bound state of $D_s \bar D_s$ meson pair with binding energy about 18\,MeV. In particular, the decays…
In this work, we systematically investigate the heavy-strange meson systems, $D^{(*)}K^{(*)}/\bar{B}^{(*)}K^{(*)}$ and $\bar{D}^{(*)}K^{(*)}/B^{(*)}K^{(*)}$, to study possible molecules in a quasipotenial Bethe-Salpter equation approach…
