The masses of octet baryons are calculated by the method of QCD sum rules. Using generalized interpolating fields, three independent sets of QCD sum rules are derived which allow the extraction of low-lying N* states with spin-parity 1/2+,…
We have studied the charmonium and bottomonium hybrid states with various $J^{PC}$ quantum numbers in QCD sum rules. At leading order in $\alpha_s$, the two-point correlation functions have been calculated up to dimension six including the…
Charmonium is an attractive system for the application of lattice QCD methods. While the sub-threshold spectrum has been considered in some detail in previous works, it is only very recently that excited and higher-spin states and further…
We use QCD sum rules to study the masses of the baryons $\Xi_c$ and $\Xi_b$. We work with a current where the strange and the light quarks are in a relative spin zero, at leading order in $\alpha_s$. We consider the contributions of…
In the present work, we construct the diquark-antidiquark type four-quark currents to investigate the mass spectrum of the ground state hidden-charm-hidden-strange tetraquark states with the quantum numbers $J^{PC}=0^{++}$, $1^{+-}$,…
In this article, we re-study the heavy baryon states $\Omega_b$, $\Omega_c$, $\Xi'_b$, $\Xi'_c$, $\Sigma_b$ and $\Sigma_c$ with the QCD sum rules, after subtracting the contributions from the corresponding negative parity heavy baryon…
We use QCD sum rules to study the possible existence of $QQ-\bar{u}\bar{d}$ mesons, assumed to be a state with $J^{P}=1^{+}$. For definiteness, we work with a current with an axial heavy diquark and a scalar light antidiquark, at leading…
Topics in the description of the properties of charmonium states are reviewed with an emphasis on specific theoretical ideas and methods of relating those properties to the underlying theory of Quantum Chromodynamics.
We review the recent status of the QCD sum rule approach to study the properties of hadrons in vacuum and in hot or dense matter. Special focus is laid on the progress made in the evaluation of the QCD condensates, which are the input of…
We present a new QCD sum rule with high sensitivity to the continuum regions of charm and bottom quark pair production. Combining this sum rule with existing ones yields very stable results for the msbar quark masses, m_c(m_c)$ and m_b…
Many new results on hadron spectra have been appearing in the past few years thanks to improved experimental techniques and searches in new channels. New theoretical techniques including refined methods of lattice QCD have kept pace with…
The charm quark density-density correlation is calculated for $1S$ and $1P$ conventional charmonia and $J^{PC}=1^{-+},0^{+-}$ charmoniumlike states from lattice QCD and are interpreted as spatial wave functions of these states with some…
We argue that relatively compact charmonium states, $J/\psi$, $\psi(2S)$, $\chi_c$, can very likely be bound inside light hadronic matter, in particular inside higher resonances made from light quarks and/or gluons. The charmonium state in…
The BESIII experiment at BEPCII at IHEP in Beijing/China has collected the world largest data sets in the $\tau$-charm region and it is well suited to cover a rich hadron physics programme, including charmonium and open-charm spectroscopy,…
Stimulated by the new discovery of $P_{c}(4312)^{+}$ by LHCb Collaboration, we endeavor to perform the study of $P_{c}(4312)^{+}$ as a $\Sigma_{c}\bar{D}$ state in the framework of QCD sum rules. Taking into account the results from two sum…

We develop a moment QCD sum rule method augmented by fundamental inequalities to study the existence of exotic doubly hidden-charm/bottom tetraquark states made of four heavy quarks. Using the compact diquark-antidiquark configuration, we…
In the present work, we construct eight six-quark currents to study the $\Sigma_c\bar{\Sigma}_c$ baryonium and $\Sigma_c\Sigma_c$ dibaryon states via the QCD sum rules. For either $\Sigma_c\bar{\Sigma}_c$ baryonium or $\Sigma_c\Sigma_c$…
To illustrate the campaign to understand heavy quarkonium systems, I focus on a puzzling new state, $X(3872) \to \pi^+\pi^- J/\psi$. Studying the influence of open-charm channels on charmonium properties leads us to propose a new charmonium…
Within the framework of the heavy quark effective theory, QCD sum rules are used to calculate the masses of p-wave (c-bar s) states. The results for 0^+ and 1^+ states with the angular momentum of the light component j_l=1/2 are consistent…
