Hidden-charm exotic hadrons will be searched for and investigated at future electron-ion colliders. For instance, the $X(3872)$ can be produced through the exclusive process $\gamma p\to X(3872)p$. The vector meson dominance model has been…
We investigate the decays of $B^0 \to K^0 X(3872)$ and $B^+ \to K^+ X(3872)$ based on the picture where the $X(3872)$ resonance is strongly coupled to the $D\bar{D}^* + c.c.$ channel. In addition to the decay mechanism where the $X(3872)$…
The Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric $e^+e^-$ collider at KEK, Tsukuba, Japan, is recording data since 2018. The expected high luminosity of $\mathcal{L}=8\cdot 10^{35}~$cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$ enables searches for yet unobserved…
We analyze the $X(3872)$ production in the processes $ \bar{D} D \rightarrow \pi X $, $\bar{D}^* D \rightarrow \pi X $ and $\bar{D}^* D^* \rightarrow \pi X $, making use of the Heavy-Meson Effective Theory, with an effective Lagrangian…
The observation of many unexpected states decaying into heavy quarkonia has challenged the usual QQbar interpretation. One of the most studied exotic states, the X(3872), happens to be copiously produced in high-energy hadron collisions. We…
Heavy hadron spectroscopy was well understood within the naive quark model until the end of the past century. However, in 2003, the $X(3872)$ was discovered, with puzzling properties difficult to understand in the simple naive quark model…
We argue why the recently observed $T_{cc}$ could either be a compact multiquark configuration or a loosely bound molecular configuration composed of charmed mesons, whereas the $X(3872)$ is most likely a molecular configuration. The…
We systematically construct all the tetraquark currents of $J^{PC} = 1^{++}$ with the quark configurations $[cq][\bar c \bar q]$, $[\bar c q][\bar q c]$, and $[\bar c c][\bar q q]$ ($q=u/d$). Their relations are derived using the Fierz…
We present that the $X(3872)$ could be represented as a dynamically generated state in the extended Friedrichs scheme, in which the ratio of "elementariness" and "compositeness" of the different components in the $X(3872)$ is about…
We report recent results on the properties of the X(3872) produced via the B+ --> K+ X(3872) decay process. We observe X -->pi+pi-pi0 J/psi decays where the 3pi invariant masses cluster near the upper kinematic boundary suggesting that they…
We have studied some possible four-quark and molecule contents of the X(3872) using double ratios of sum rules, which are more accurate than the usual simple ratios often used in the literature for getting the hadron masses. We found that…
We study the behavior of the pion dispersion relation in a pion medium at finite density and temperature. We introduce a pion chemical potential to describe the finite pion number density and argue that such description is valid during the…
We report a calculation of the shear viscosity in a relativistic multicomponent meson gas as a function of temperature and chemical potentials. We approximately solve the Uehling-Uhlenbeck transport equation of kinetic theory, appropriate…
In this work, we take the $X(3872)$ as the hidden-charm tetraquark state with both isospin $I=0$ and $1$ components, then investigate the strong decays $X(3872)\to J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$, $J/\psi\omega$, $\chi_{c1}\pi^0$, $D^{*0}\bar{D}^0$ and…
We investigated the pionic transitions between the $X_2$ [spin-2 partner of the $X(3872)$] and $\chi_{c1,2}$ using a nonrelativistic effective field theory. The $X_2$ is assumed to be a bound state of the $D^{*}$ and $\bar{D}^*$ mesons and…
Last year's X(3872) discovery was confirmed with the CDF II detector in pbarp collisions. We measure its mass to be $3871.3 \pm 0.7 \pm 0.4 MeV/c2$. The source of X-mesons in the large CDF sample is resolved by studying their vertex…
The X(3872) has non-charmonium-like properties, such as decay processes that seem to violate isospin, and a mass that lies unexpectedly close to the neutral-D-plus-neutral-D-excited-state threshold. An EFT that includes both charmonium-like…
Properties of X(3872) are studied by regarding it as a $DD^{\ast}$ hadronic molecule with $J^{PC} = 2^{-+}$ in the phenomenological Lagrangian approach. We find that our model with about 97.6% isospin zero component explains the existing…
We study the behavior of the pion dispersion relation in a pion medium at finite density and temperature, introducing a chemical potential to describe the finite pion number density. Such description is particularly important during the…
The effects of charmed meson loops on the spectrum of charmonium are considered, with special attention paid to the levels above open-charm threshold. It is found that the coupling to charmed mesons generates a structure at the D \bar{D}*…
