The ground vector $B_{c}^{\ast}$ meson has not yet been experimentally discovered until now. Besides the dominant electromagnetic decays, nonleptonic weak decays provide another choice to search for the mysterious $B_{c}^{\ast}$ mesons.…
Early speculations about the existence of heavy hadron molecules were grounded on the idea that light-meson exchanges forces could lead to binding. In analogy to the deuteron, the light-mesons usually considered include the pion, sigma, rho…

Decay property of hidden-charm tetra-quark mesons is studied. It is seen that estimated width of iso-triplet odd $\mathcal{C}$ partners of X(3872), although still crude, is compatible with the measured ones of Z_c(3900). It is pointed out…
