The experimentally known $B_c$ states are all below open bottom-charm threshold, which experience three main decay modes, and all induced by weak interaction. In this work, we investigate the mass spectrum and strong decays of the $B_c(3S)$…
We report on further evidence that the Y(3940) and the recently observed Y(4140) are heavy hadron molecule states with quantum numbers J(PC) = 0(++). The Y(3940) state is considered to be a superposition of D*(+)D*(-) and D*(0) barD*(0),…
Observations of exotic structures in the $J/\psi p$ channel, that we refer to as pentaquark-charmonium states, in $\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi K^- p$ decays are presented. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3/fb acquired…
We perform the first three-dimensional measurement of the amplitudes of $B\to\psi{(2S)}K^*$ and $B\to\chi_{c1}K^*$ decays and update our previous measurement for $B\to{J\mskip -3mu/\mskip -2mu\psi\mskip 2mu}K^*$. We use a data sample…
Contrary to almost standard opinion that the X(3872) resonance is the D^{*0}\bar D^0+c.c. molecule or the qc\bar q\bar c four-quark state, we discuss the scenario where the X(3872)resonance is the c\bar c = \chi_{c1}(2P) charmonium which…
In this article, we construct both the $[sc]_T[\bar{s}\bar{c}]_A+[sc]_A[\bar{s}\bar{c}]_T$ type and $[sc]_T[\bar{s}\bar{c}]_V-[sc]_V[\bar{s}\bar{c}]_T$ type axialvector currents with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ to study the mass of the $X(4140)$ with…
We have studied the $J/\psi \phi$ mass distribution of the $B^+\to J/\psi\phi K^+$ reaction from threshold to about 4250 MeV, and find that one needs the contribution of the $X(4140)$ with a narrow width, together with the $X(4160)$ which…
We investigate the newly observed $X(4500)$ and $X(4700)$ based on the diquark-antidiquark configuration within the framework of QCD sum rules. Both of them may be interpreted as the $D$-wave $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ tetraquark states of $J^P =…
The $Z^\pm_c(3900)/Z^\pm_c(3885)$ resonant structure has been experimentally observed in the $Y(4260) \to J/\psi \pi\pi$ and $Y(4260) \to \bar{D}^\ast D \pi$ decays. This structure is intriguing since it is a prominent candidate of an…
We have performed a theoretical study on the process $\chi_{c0}(1P)\to \bar{\Lambda}\Sigma\pi$, by taking into account the final state interactions of $\pi\Sigma$ and $\pi\bar{\Lambda}$ based on the chiral unitary approach. As the isospin…
An interesting controversy has emerged challenging the widely accepted nature of the $X(3915)$ and the $X(3930)$ resonances, which had initially been assigned to the $\chi_{c0}(2P)$ and $\chi_{c2}(2P)$ $c\bar c$ states, respectively. To…
Recently, three new states of $\Xi_c^0$ were observed in the invariant mass spectrum of $\Lambda^+_cK^-$ by LHCb collaboration. In this work, we use a chiral quark model to investigate these three exited states with the help of Gaussian…
In this paper, the dilepton electromagnetic decays $\chi_{cJ}(1P) \to J/\psi e^+e^-$ and $\chi_{cJ}(1P) \to J\psi \mu^+\mu^-$, where $\chi_{cJ}$ denotes $\chi_{c0}$, $\chi_{c1}$ and $\chi_{c2}$, are calculated systematically in the improved…
We examine the four-quark structure of the recently discovered charged $Z_c(3900)$, $Z(4430)$, and $X_b(5568)$ states. We calculate the widths of the strong decays $Z_c^+ \to J/\psi \pi^+$ ($\eta_c\rho^+$, $\bar D^0D^{\ast\,+}$, $\bar…
It is suggested that the newly observed Y(4260) by BARBAR collaboration is a molecular state composed of an omega and a chi_{c1}. Both the production and decay properties are discussed. A consequence for this molecular state, Y(4260), is…
Belle Collaboration has recently observed a new state, the X(4160), in the process of double charm production $e^+e^-\to J/\psi+X(4160)$ followed by $X(4160)\to D^*\bar{D^*}$. We discuss possible interpretations for the X(4160) based on the…
Using purely phenomenological approach we show that the peaking structures observed in the psi(2S) pi+ and chi_c1 pi+ mass spectra in B -> psi(2S)(chi_c1) pi+ K decays can be result of (D \bar{D}^(*))+ -> (ccbar)_res pi+ rescattering in the…
The new particle Z(3930) found by the Belle and BaBar Collaborations through the $\gamma\gamma\rightarrow D\bar D$ process is identified to be the $\chi_{c2}(2P)$ state. Since the mass of this particle is above the $D\bar D^{(\ast)}$…
We present an update of the study of the Y(4260) resonance, produced in the process $e^+e^-\to\gamma_{ISR} \pi^+\pi^-J/\psi$ using initial-state radiation events at the PEP-II $e^+e^-$ storage rings. This study is based on 454fb$^{-1}$ of…
We report the observation of a narrow charmonium-like state produced in the exclusive decay process B+ -> K+ pi+pi- J/psi. This state, which decays into pi+pi- J/psi, has a mass of 3872.0+-0.6(stat)+-0.5(syst) MeV, a value that is very near…
