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 study the spectral function of the axial-vector charmonium state $\chi_{c1}(2P)$ coupled to $DD^{\ast}$ mesons, by employing a quantum field theoretical approach: a pronounced enhancement close to the $D^{0}% D^{\ast0}$ threshold, to be…
A four-body amplitude analysis of the $B^- \to D^{*+} \pi^- \pi^-$ decay is performed, where fractions and relative phases of the various resonances contributing to the decay are measured. Several quasi-model-independent analyses are…
Recently, the LHCb Collaboration reported a near-threshold enhancement, $X(3960)$, in the $D_s^+D_s^-$ invariant mass distribution. We show that the data can be well described by either a bound or a virtual state below the $D_s^+D_s^-$…
We calculate the masses and leptonic decay widths of the bottomonium $b\bar b$ and charmonium $c\bar c$ states in a constituent quark model where the Cornell-like potential and spin-dependent interaction are employed, with all model…
It has been proposed that the recently discovered archetypical "exotic" meson, X(3872), with M(X(3872))=3871.68+-0.17 MeV/c^2, and an extremely narrow width, Gamma(X(3872))<1.2 MeV, is a hadronic molecule of bound D^0 and D^*0 mesons. If…
The $D {\bar D}^*$ scattering amplitude and the production of the final states $\pi^+ \pi^- J/\psi$ and $\pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0 J/\psi$ near the $D^0 {\bar D}^{*0}$ threshold are discussed following the recent suggestion that the observed peaks…
Based on a data sample of an integrated luminosity of 57.4 fb-1 at the Upsilon(4S) resonance taken with the BaBar detector using the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$-Factory, hadronic decays of B meson with the final states D(*) and three…
Using the general form of the generalized Bethe-Salpeter wave functions for four-quark states describing the meson-meson molecular structure given in our previous work, we obtain the general formulas for the decay widths of molecular states…
We further explore the consequences of treating the X(3872) meson as a tetraquark bound state by analyzing its one-photon decay X => \gamma + J/psi in the framework of our approach developed in previous papers which incorporates quark…
The chiral symmetry of QCD requires energy-dependent pionic strong interactions at low energies. This constraint, however, is not fulfilled by the usual Breit--Wigner parameterization of pionic resonances, leading to masses larger than the…
The BESIII observation of the $X(2600)$ suggests that one possible assignment for its spin-parity quantum numbers is $J^{PC}=2^{-+}$. This finding motivates us to systematically revisit isoscalar pseudotensor mesonic states through a…
We analyze recent data from the Babar and Belle Collaborations on the X(3872) resonance in the J/psi pi+ pi- and D0 D0-bar pi0 decay channels, taking careful account of the universal features of an S-wave threshold resonance. Because the…
We make predictions for the production and decays of $X(2900)$ states, and their possible charged partners, in $B^+$ and $B^0$ decays, considering a number of competing models for the states, including triangle diagrams mediated by quark…
We study $D\bar{D}^*$ ($D^*\bar{D}$) scattering in the framework of unitarized heavy meson chiral perturbation theory with pion exchange and a contact interaction. $^3S_1-$$^3D_1$ mixing effects are taken into account. A loosely bound state…
Charmonium(-like) or bottomonium(-like) states, which are incompatible with predictions from a static quark anti-quark potential model, are often refered to as XYZ states. In this lecture, some peculiar properties of states such as the…
We examine the status of charmonia like states by looking into the behaviour of the energy level differences and regularity in the behaviour of the leptonic decay widths of the excited charmonia states. The spectroscopic states are studied…
New spectroscopy from the B factories, the advent of CLEO-c and the BES upgrade renewed the interest in charmonia. Among the new measurements, the state X(3872) has received special attention due to its unexpected properties. Its structure…
