We discuss a possible interpretation of the open charm mesons $D_{s0}^*(2317)$, $D_{s1}(2460)$ and the hidden charm mesons X(3872), Y(3940) and Y(4140) as hadron molecules. Using a phenomenological Lagrangian approach we review the strong…

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…

In the framework of heavy quark effective theory, the leading order Isgur-Wise form factors relevant to semileptonic decays of the ground state $\bar{b}s$ meson $B_{s}$ into orbitally excited $D$-wave $\bar{c}s$ mesons, including the newly…

The D_s^+ pi^0 and D_s^{*+} gamma decays of the D_{s0}^+(2317) are studied by assigning it to various charmed strange scalar mesons. As a result, it is found that its assignment to an iso-triplet four-quark meson is favored by the severest…

The SU(3) quark model encounters a great challenge in describing even-parity mesons. Specifically, the $q\bar q$ quark model has difficulties in understanding the light scalar mesons below 1 GeV, scalar and axial-vector charmed mesons and…

We consider the ${\bar D}^{(*)}\Sigma_c^{(*)}$ states, together with $J/\psi N$ and other coupled channels, and take an interaction consistent with heavy quark spin symmetry, with the dynamical input obtained from an extension of the local…

Predicted masses of J^P=0^+ and 1^+ states of D_{sJ} and D by a potential model proposed some time ago by two of us (T.M. and T.M.), in which the Hamiltonian and wave functions are expanded in 1/m_Q with m_Q heavy quark mass respecting…

Using the diabatic formalism, a rigorous generalization of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, we study the effects of introducing simple meson-meson molecular potentials to an established diquark model for tetraquark states, and calculate…

The mass shifts of the $P$-wave $D_s$ and $B_s$ mesons due to coupling to $DK$, $D^*K$ and $BK$, $B^*K$ channels are studied using the chiral quark-pion Lagrangian without fitting parameters. The strong mass shifts down $\sim 140$ MeV and…

We analyze the recently discovered $D_{sJ}(2860)$ meson using arguments based on the heavy quark expansion together with the experimental observations. We consider the possible quantum number assignments, arguing that the interpretation of…

We calculate the probabilities of various charmed meson molecules for $X(4260)$ under the framework of ${}^3P_0$ model. The results indicate that even though heavy quark spin symmetry forbids $S$ wave coupling of $D_1\bar{D}$ to the…

We study charm-strange mesons, or $D_s$, $D_s^*$, $D_{s0}^*(2317)$, and $D_{s1}(2460)$ mesons by focusing on their production by coalescence from a quark-gluon plasma in relativistic heavy ion collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=5.02$ TeV.…

A new charm-strange meson, the $D_{s1}^*(2863)$, has recently been observed by the LHCb collaboration which also determined the $D_{sJ}^*(2860)$ to have spin 3. One of the speculations about the previously observed $D_{s1}^*(2710)$ is that…

In terms of the heavy chiral Lagrangian and the unitarized coupled-channel scattering amplitude, interaction between the heavy meson and the light pseudoscalar meson is studied. By looking for the pole of scattering matrix on an appropriate…

In the last decade a Quasi-Particle Model (QPM) has been developed to study charm quark dynamics in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions supplying a satisfactory description of the main observables for $D$ meson and providing an estimate…

Motivated by recent experimental evidence for apparent $cc\bar c \bar c$ states at LHCb, CMS and ATLAS, we consider how the mass spectrum and decays of such states can be used to discriminate among their possible theoretical…

We discuss radiative transitions $D_{s1}\rightarrow D_s\gamma$ and $D_{s1}\rightarrow D_s^*\gamma$ of $p$-wave mesons. Since $D_{s1}$ mesons have no a certain $C$-parity, and the masses of quarks in these mesons differ significantly, then…

Inspired by the recent observation of $\chi_{c0}(3930)$, $X(4685)$ and $X(4630)$ by the LHCb Collaboration and some exotic resonances such as $X(4350)$, $X(4500)$, etc. by several experiment collaborations, the $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ tetraquark…

We study the $\bar{B}_s^0\to D_s^-(DK)^+$ weak decay, and look at the $DK$ invariant mass distribution with the aim of obtaining relevant information on the nature of the $D_{s0}^{\ast+}(2317)$ resonance. We make a simulation of the…
