We study the partial decay widths of the charmonium states ($J/\psi$, $\psi(3686)$, $\psi(3770)$, $\chi_{c0}$, $\chi_{c2}$) to $D\bar D$ ($D^+D^-$ or $D^0\bar {D^0}$) in isospin asymmetric nuclear matter, in the presence of strong magnetic…
The observation of many unexpected states decaying into heavy quarkonia has challenged the usual Q-Qbar interpretation. We will discuss the nature of some of the charmonium-like resonances recently observed by BES III and LHCb, and their…
We study the $B^+ \to J/\psi \omega K^+ $ reaction, measured by the LHCb collaboration, and show that it is driven by the presence of two resonances, the $X(3940)$ and $X(3930)$, that are of molecular nature and couple most strongly to $D^*…
Recent discovery of D_s states suggests existence of radial excitations. Our semirelativistic quark potential model succeeds in reproducing these staes within one to two percent of accuracy compared with the experiments, D_s0(2860) and…
PSR J1618-3921 is one of five known millisecond pulsars (MSPs) in eccentric orbits (eMPSs) located in the Galactic plane, whose formation is poorly understood. Earlier studies of these objects revealed significant discrepancies between…
Several charmonium-like states above $D\bar{D}$ threshold have been discovered at the Belle and BABAR B-factories. Some of these states are produced via Initial State Radiation (e.g. Y(4260) and Y(4350)), and some are observed in B-meson…
We study the $B_c^- \to \pi^- J/\psi \omega$ and $B_c^- \to \pi^- D^* \bar{D}^*$ reactions and show that they are related by the presence of two resonances, the $X(3940)$ and $X(3930)$, that are of molecular nature and couple most strongly…
Spectroscopy results for Belle and BaBar are reported. A particular focus is put on new results of the X(3872) state with its radiative decays to $J$/$\psi$$\gamma$ and $\psi'$$\gamma$, its decay into $J$/$\psi$3$\pi$ and the search for…
The scalar resonances $X(3915), X(3960), X(4140)$ are considered as exotic four-quark states: $cq\bar c \bar q, cs\bar c \bar s, cs\bar c\bar s$, while the $X(3863)$ is proved to be the $c\bar c, 2\,^3P_0$ state. The masses and the widths…
In this study, we utilize light-cone QCD sum rules at twist-3 accuracy to compute the coupling parameters of the $\chi_{c1}(2P)$ state with $D$ and $D^*$ mesons. The analysis reveals that the observed $\chi_{c1}(3872)$ meson incorporates…
We studied the broadband X-ray timing and spectral behaviors of the newly confirmed accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar MAXI J1816$-$195 during its 2022 outburst. We used the data from Insight-HXMT ME/HE, NICER and NuSTAR which cover the…
A near-threshold enhancement in the $D_s^+ D_s^-$ system, dubbed as $X(3960)$, is observed by the LHCb collaboration recently. A combined analysis on $\chi_{c0}(3930)~(\to D^+ D^-)$, $X(3960)~(\to D_s^+ D_s^-)$, and $X(3915)~(\to…
A status report on the theory and phenomenology of rare radiative $B$ decays in the standard model is presented with emphasis on the measured decays $B \to X_s \gamma$ and $B \to K^* \gamma$. Standard model is in agreement with experiments…
Recent LHCb's amplitude analysis on $B^+\to J/\psi \phi K^+$ suggests the existence of exotic $X$ and $Z_{cs}$ hadrons, based on an assumption that Breit-Wigner resonances describe all the peak structures. However, all the peaks and also…
Using a sample of $1.31\times10^{9} ~J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform a study of $J/\psi\to\gamma K\bar{K}\eta'$. The $X(2370)$ is observed in the $K\bar{K}\eta'$ invariant-mass distribution with a statistical…
If the $X(3872)$ is described by the picture as a mixture of the charmonium and molecular $D^{\ast} D$ states; $Y(3940)$ as a mixture of the $\chi_{c0}$ and $D^\ast D^\ast$ states; and $X(4260)$ as a mixture of the tetra-quark and…
We calculate the masses and leptonic decay widths of the bottomonium $b\bar b$ and charmonium $c\bar c$ states in a constituent quark model where the Cornell-like potential and spin-dependent interaction are employed, with all model…
In this thesis, the QCD sum rules approach has been used to study the nature of the following charmonium resonances: Y(3930), Y(4140), X(4350), Y(4260), Y(4360) and Y(4660). There is a strong evidence that these states have non-conventional…
Recently, the LHCb Collaboration has confirmed the state $X(4140)$, with a mass $M=4146.5\pm 4.5^{+4.6}_{-2.8}$~MeV, and a much larger width $\Gamma=83\pm21^{+21}_{-14}$~MeV than the previous experimental measurements, which has confused…
We calculate the decay widths of both the second and the third radial excitations of $\eta$ and $\eta'$ within the framework of $^3P_0$ model. After comparing the theoretical decay widths and decay patterns with the available experimental…
