Search for new physics with charm rare decays at BESIII. The BESIII experiment has collected 2.6 billion $\psi(3686)$ events, 10 billion $J/\psi$ events, $20 fb^{-1}$ D meson pairs at 3.773 GeV, and $7.33 fb^{-1}~D_{s}D_{s}^{*}$ events from…
It has been recently suggested that the charged charmoniumlike resonances $Z_c(4100)$ and $Z_c(4200)$ are two states of hadrocharmonium, related by the charm quark spin symmetry in the same way as the lowest charmonium states $\eta_c$ and…
Using $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 10.6 fb$^{-1}$ collected at center-of-mass energies between 4.258 and 4.681 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we search for the $1^{- +}$…
The BESIII collaboration has discovered a new state with hidden charm-strange. Its mass is intriguingly close to the $ D_s\bar{D}_{s1} $ threshold and does not have the properties of the charmonium states. Working with the QCD sum rules…
BESIII is a high precision, general purpose detector for the high luminosity $e^+e^-$ collider, BEPCII, running at the tau-charm energy region. Its design and current status of construction is presented.

We report on the charm physics potential at BES-III at BEPC-II which will make significant contribution to quark flavor physics this decade. The charm physics program will include studies of leptonic, semileptonic and hadronic charm decays,…
Discovery of the X(3872) meson in 2003 ignited intense interest in exotic (neither $q\bar{q}$ nor $qqq$) hadrons, but a $c\bar{c}$ interpretation of this state was difficult to exclude. An unequivocal exotic was discovered in the…
Based on the data samples collected at the energies of $J/\psi$, $\psi(3686)$, $\psi(3770)$ and $\psi(4040)$ resonances with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, we present charmonium decays in two aspects. One is the search for…
Vector charmonium states $J/\Psi$ and $\Psi'$ are copiously produced by $e^+e^-$ annihilations at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC). Their decays provide an excellent place for studying excited nucleons and hyperons -- $N^*$,…
In this talk, we review the most recent progress in the searching for the exotic hadrons, including hybrids, multi-quark states, molecules and so on. We only focus on the studies with a charmonium and one or more light mesons in the final…
BESIII has accumulated 4.5 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data in the 4.6 to 4.7 GeV energy range, corresponding to the world's largest sample of $\Lambda_c^+\bar{\Lambda}_c^-$ pairs. This paper summarizes recent BESIII results on…
The recent results on charmonium and charmoniumlike states from Belle experiment are reviewed. We summarise searches in $B$ decays for possible $X$-like states in final states containing $\eta_c$. The new measurement of…
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…
BESIII (BEijing Spectrometer III) is a particle physics experiment with a vast physics program centered around the study of charmonium and the $\tau$ lepton. The performance of the spectrometer's inner tracker, the innermost part of a large…
Using $525$ pb$^{-1}$ data collected with the BESIII detector at $e^+e^-$ central-of-mass energy 4.26 GeV, the BESIII Collaboration observed a charged charmoniumlike state $Z_c(3900)\to\pi^{\pm}J/\psi$ with mass $M[Z_c(3900)]=3899.0\pm 3.6…
BESIII had collected large data samples on $J/\psi$ and $\psi^\prime$ peaks during the first run in 2009. From 2010 to 2011, about 2.9 fb$^{-1}$ integrated luminosity were obtained on the peak of $\psi(3770)$ for open charm physics. We…
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…
