We present results of a 2+1+1 flavor twisted mass lattice QCD computation of the spectrum of $D$ mesons and $D_s$ mesons and of charmonium. Particular focus is put on the positive parity $D$ states (so-called $D^{\ast \ast}$ mesons) with…

Within the chiral unitary approach and with the constraints of heavy quark spin symmetry, we study the coupled channel interactions of ${\bar D}^{(*)}\Sigma_c^{(*)}$ channels, close to whose thresholds three pentaquark-like $P_c$ states…
We present our first set of results for charm physics, using the mixed-action setup introduced in a companion paper. Maximally twisted Wilson valence fermions are used on a sea of non-perturbatively $O(a)$-improved Wilson fermions, made up…
The isospin breaking effect plays an essential role in generating hadronic molecular states with a very tiny binding energy. Very recently, the LHCb Collaboration observed a very narrow doubly charmed tetraquark $T_{cc}^+$ in the…
Using the effective Lagrangian approach, we examine the recently observed charm states $D^{*}_{J}(2460)$, $D_{J}(2560)$, $D_{J}(2740)$, $D_{J}(3000)$ and their spin partners $D^{*}_{J}(2680)$, $D^{*}_{J}(2760)$ and $D^{*}_{J}(3000)$ with…
The exploration of exotic mesons, which transcend the conventional quark-antiquark framework, is pivotal for advancing our understanding of QCD and the strong interaction. Among these, states possessing the quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$,…

We consider the spectroscopy of heavy-quark light-quark mesons with a simple model based on the non-relativistic reduction of vector and scalar exchange between fermions. Four forces are induced: the spin-orbit forces on the light and heavy…
Combining the quark model, the quark-pair-creation mechanism and $B^{(*)}\bar K$ interaction, we have investigated the near-threshold $P$-wave $B_s$ states in the framework of the Hamiltonian effective field theory. With the heavy quark…
The standard description of the nucleon in the non-relativistic quark model is an $1S,L=0$ state without orbital motion. Yet, there are several indications from phenomenology that an admixture of states with nonzero orbital motion maybe…
A novel framework is proposed to extract near-threshold resonant states from finite-volume energy levels of lattice QCD and is applied to elucidate structures of the positive parity $D_s$. The quark model, the quark-pair-creation mechanism…
We study $D\bar{D}^*$ ($D^*\bar{D}$) scattering in the framework of unitarized heavy meson chiral perturbation theory with pion exchange and a contact interaction. $^3S_1-$$^3D_1$ mixing effects are taken into account. A loosely bound state…
The spin and parity of the charmed mesons $D_{s}^{*+}$, $D^{*0}$ and $D^{*+}$ are determined for the first time to be $J^P=1^{-}$ with significances greater than 10$\sigma$ over other hypotheses of $2^{+}$ and $3^{-}$, using an $e^+e^-$…
The mass modifications of the open charm ($D$ and $D^*$) mesons, and their effects on the decay widths $D^*\rightarrow D\pi$ as well as of the charmonium state, $\Psi(3770)$ to open charm mesons ($\Psi(3770)\rightarrow D\bar D$), are…
