By using QCD Sum Rules, we found that the charged hidden charm tetraquark $[c u][\bar{c} \bar{d}]$ states with $ J^P = 1^-$ and $ 2^+$, which are possible quantum numbers of the newly observed charmonium-like resonance $Z_c(4025)$, have…
In this work, we perform a systematic study of possible molecular states composed of two charmed baryons including hidden-charm systems $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$, $\Sigma_c^{(*)}\bar{\Sigma}_c^{(*)}$, and $\Lambda_c\bar{\Sigma}_c^{(*)}$,…
The strange pentaquarks with hidden heavy quark pair ($q^3c\bar c$ and $q^3b \bar b$) are investigated by the coupled-channel quark cluster model. Two types of the $q^3$ color-octet configurations are found to provide the attraction, which…

Inspired by the observation of the $X(6900)$ by LHCb and the $X(6600)$ (with mass $6552\pm 10$ $\pm 12$ MeV) recently by CMS and ATLAS experiments of the LHC in the di-$J/\Psi $ invariant mass spectrum, we systemically study masses of all…
The last two decades are marked by a renaissance in hadronic spectroscopy caused by the arrival of vast experimental information on exotic states in the spectrum of charmonium and bottomonium. Most of such states have properties at odds…
Many charmonium-like and bottomonium-like $XYZ$ resonances have been observed by the Belle, Babar, CLEO and BESIII collaborations in the past decade. They are difficult to fit in the conventional quark model and thus are considered as…
Inspired by $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4450)$ recently observed by LHCb, a QCD sum rule investigation is performed, by which they can be identified as exotic hidden-charm pentaquarks composed of an anti-charmed meson and a charmed baryon. Our…
We review how quark models are able to describe the phenomenology of the charm meson sector. The spectroscopy and decays of charmonium and open charm mesons are described in a particular quark model and compared with the data and the…
The hidden charm pentaquark state $P_c(4450)$ observed recently by the LHCb collaboration may be of molecular nature, as advocated by some unitary approaches that also predict pentaquark partners in the strangeness $S=-1$ sector. In this…
In this work, we systematically calculate the spectrum of hidden-charm pentaquark states $qqqc\bar{c}$ $(q = u,d)$ in the chiral SU(3) quark model, which has been quite successful in reproducing consistently the energies of octet and…
We consider hidden charm pentaquarks as hadroquarkonium states in a QCD inspired approach. Pentaquarks arise naturally as bound states of quarkonia excitations and ordinary baryons. The LHCb $P_c(4450)$ pentaquark is interpreted as a…
We investigate hidden-charm pentaquark states using an off-shell coupled-channel formalism involving heavy meson and singly heavy baryon scattering. Our approach utilizes an effective Lagrangian to construct the kernel amplitudes, which…
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…
In this text different theoretical approaches towards multi-quark states are introduced, namely hadrocharmonia, compact tetraquarks and hadronic molecules. The predictions derived from either of them are contrasted with current and possible…
