In a constituent quark model, a hidden charmed tetraquark is assumed consisting of a $cq$ diquark and an $\bar c\bar q$ antidiquark or vice versa. The Semay-Silvestre-Brac potentials are employed to calculate the masses of $cq$ (q=u, d)…
We extend the two-flavor hard-wall holographic model of Erlich, Katz, Son and Stephanov [Phys.\ Rev.\ Lett.\ {\bf 95}, 261602 (2005)] to four flavors to incorporate strange and charm quarks. The model incorporates chiral and flavor symmetry…

The masses and decays of the scalar D_{s0}^*(2317) and axial-vector D_{s1}^*(2460) charmed strange mesons are calculated consistently in the hadrogenesis conjecture. These mesons decay either strongly into the isospin-violating pi^0 D_s and…
