The $B_s^0\pi^\pm$ invariant mass distribution is investigated in order to search for possible exotic meson states. The analysis is based on a data sample recorded with the LHCb detector corresponding to $3$ fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data…
We investigate heavy quark symmetries for heavy meson hadronic molecules, and explore the consequences of assuming the X(3872) and $Z_b(10610)$ as an isoscalar $D\bar D^*$ and an isovector $B\bar B^*$ hadronic molecules, respectively. The…
Based on the collected data on $J/\psi\to \gamma K_S^0K_S^0\eta'$, the BESIII experiment has conducted an analysis of the mass and spin parity of the $X(2370)$ particle. The findings are consistent with the characteristics expected of the…
Some charmonium-like resonances such as X(3872) can be interpreted as possible $D^{(*)}D^{(*)}$ molecular states. Within the quark model, we study the structure of such molecular states and the similar $B^{(*)}B^{(*)}$ molecular states by…
Lately, the LHCb Collaboration reported the discovery of two new states in the $B^+\rightarrow D^+D^- K^+$ decay, i.e., $X_0(2866)$ and $X_1(2904)$. In the present work, we study whether these states can be understood as $D^*\bar{K}^*$…
Three searches for rare decays of the charmed $D^0$ meson are presented: a search for $D^0 \to \ell^+\ell^-$ published by the BaBar collaboration using about 468 fb$^{-1}$ of data and two searches for $D^0 \to \gamma\gamma$, one published…
We study the weak decay $\Omega_b^- \to (\Xi_c^+ \, K^-) \, \pi^-$, in view of the narrow $\Omega_c$ states recently measured by the LHCb collaboration and later confirmed by the Belle collaboration. The $\Omega_c(3050)$ and…
The present day experimental data on the $X(3872)$ decays do not allow to make clear conclusions on the dominating structure of this state. We discuss here an alternative way to study its structure by means of the two-step $\bar D^*$ (or…
Using the QCD sum rules technique we study several aspects of the phenomenology of the b-flavoured strange meson $B_s^0$. In particular, we evaluate the mass of the particle, the leptonic constant and the form factors of the decays…
We study $D_s^+ D_s^-$ and $D \bar D$ states assuming that they are hadronic molecules with $J^{PC}=0^{++}$ quantum number. We use two-point QCD sum rule formalism and extract the mass and decay constant values of these states. We take into…
We choose the Reduction Formula, PCAC and Low Energy Theory to reduce the $S$ matrix of a OZI allowed two-body strong decay involving a light pseudoscalar, the covariant transition amplitude formula with relativistic wave functions as input…
The BaBar and Belle collaborations have recently found evidence for mixing within the D meson system. We present some of the mixing search techniques used by BaBar and their status as of the beginning of the summer 2007. These have…
The $D^{(\ast)}\Xi_{cc}^{(\ast)}$ system and $\bar{\Xi}_{cc}^{(\ast)}\Xi_{cc}^{(\ast)}$ system can be related to the $D^{(\ast)}\bar{D}^{(\ast)}$ system via heavy anti-quark di-quark symmetry (HADS). In this work, we employ a contact-range…

We study the exotic $\Delta^{0}\Delta^{0}$ dibaryon state with quantum numbers $J^{P} = 2^{+}$ within the framework of QCD sum rules. A tensor interpolating current is constructed to determine the mass and residue of this state, including…
In this work, we chose three molecular and three diquark-antidiquark currents with the quark content $c\bar{c}s\bar{s}$ and $J^{PC}=0^{++},1^{++},2^{++}$, and estimated the masses and the meson coupling constants of the ground states…
The decays of exotic states discovered experimentally always proceed via the strong and electromagnetic interactions. Recently, a tetraquark state with the quark content $bc\bar{q}\bar{q}$ was predicted by Lattice QCD simulations. It is…
We use QCD sum rules to test the nature of the meson X(3872), assumed to be a mixture between charmonium and exotic molecular [c\bar{q}][q\bar{c}] states with J^{PC}=1^{++}. We find that there is only a small range for the values of the…
