Results obtained by various experiments show that the $D_{s0}^{\ast}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ mesons are very narrow states located below the $DK$ and $D^{\ast}K$ thresholds, respectively. This is markedly in contrast with the expectations…
The masses of the $D^\ast_{s0}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ resonances lie below the $DK$ and $D^\ast K$ thresholds respectively, which contradicts the predictions of naive quark models and points out to non-negligible effects of the…
Using a nonrelativistic constituent quark model in which the degrees of freedom are quark-antiquark and meson-meson components, we have recently shown that the $D^{(\ast)}K$ thresholds play an important role in lowering the mass of the…
The discovery of the $D^\ast_{s0}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ resonances in the charmed-strange meson spectra revealed that formerly successful constituent quark models lose predictability in the vicinity of two-meson thresholds. The…
Recently, the BES\uppercase\expandafter{\romannumeral3} Collaboration updated the data for the exotic state, $D^{*}_{s0}(2317)$, with a mass of $2318.3\pm1.2\pm1.2$ MeV from the positronium annihilation process. Inspired by the experiment,…
The Belle Collaboration has recently reported a study of the decays $B \to D_{s1}(2536)^{+}\bar{D}^{(\ast)}$ and has given also estimates of relevant ratios between branching fractions of decays $B \to D^{(\ast)}D_{sJ}^{(\ast)}$ providing…
$D_s$ mesons are studied in three quantum channels ($J^P=0^+$, $1^+$ and $2^+$), where experiments have identified the very narrow $D_{s0}^*(2317)$, $D_{s1}(2460)$ and narrow $D_{s1}(2536)$, $D_{s2}^*(2573)$. We explore the effect of nearby…
I comment on a paper by Christoph Hanhart and Alexey Nefediev, published in Phys. Rev. D 106, 114003 (2022). The authors discuss the interpretation of mesons close to their lowest decay threshold and present a mechanism for the formation of…
We discuss the structure of the narrow mesons with charm and strangeness $D_{sJ}^*(2317)$ and $D_{sJ}(2460)$, stressing the role of the radiative decay modes in shedding light on the quark content of these states. We argue that present…
The recent discovery of the $D_{s0}(2590)^+$ meson by the LHCb Collaboration has stimulated the analysis of meson-meson channels effects in the two-body quark-antiquark meson spectrum. This resonance, assigned to the radial excitation of…
The very recently observed $D^{\ast}_{sJ}(2463)$ meson is described as a $J^{P}=1^{+}$ $c\bar{s}$ bound state in a unitarised meson model, owing its existence to the strong OZI-allowed $^{3}P_{0}$ coupling to the nearby $S$-wave $D^{\ast}K$…
We investigate the dynamical generation of the $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ and $B_{s0}^*$ mesons using a meson-exchange model with a coupled-channelformalism. Our primary focus is on the $D_s^+\pi^0$ channel below the $DK$ threshold. First, we…
Since their discovery in 2003, the open charm states $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ provide a challenge to the conventional quark model. In recent years, theoretical evidence has been accumulated for both states in favor of a…
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…
The molecular nature of $D_{s0}^{\ast}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ have been extensively studied from the perspective of their masses, decay properties, and production rates. In this work, we study the weak decays of $B \to…
I briefly review the experimental observations concerning the charmed mesons $D_{sJ}^*(2317)$, $D_{sJ}(2460)$ and survey on some of the interpretations proposed in order to understand their nature. I present an analysis of their decay modes…
We study the mass spectra and radiative decays of $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ and $D_{s1}^{\prime}(2460)$ in an unquenched framework. In addition to coupled channel effects between the $c\bar{s}$ cores and $D^{(*)}K$ channels, $D^{(*)}K$-$D^{(*)}K$…
The recently discovered $D_{s0}(2590)$ state by the LHCb collaboration was regarded as the first excited state of $^1S_{0}$ charmed-strange meson. Its mass is, however, lower than the Godfrey-Isgur quark model prediction by about 80 MeV. In…
We perform a high statistics study of the $J^{P}=0^{+}$ and $1^{+}$ charmed-strange mesons, $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$, respectively. The effects of the nearby $DK$ and $D^{*}K$ thresholds are taken into account by employing the…
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…
