Three hidden-charm pentaquark $P_c$ states, $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$, and $P_c(4457)$ were revealed in the $\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi p K^-$ process measured by LHCb using both run I and run II data. Their nature is under lively discussion, and…
We relate the interactions of the $\bar{D}^{(\ast)} K^\ast$ and $D^{(\ast)} K^\ast$ systems to those of $D^{(\ast)}D^{(\ast)}$ and $D^{(\ast)}\bar{D}^{(\ast)}$ respectively, considering the residual strong interactions at the near-threshold…
We study near-threshold $D\bar{D}$ scattering in $S$ and $D$-wave to determine whether or not resonances or bound states are present. Working in the approximation where charm-annihilation is forbidden, with two degenerate light-quark…
We study heavy hadron spectroscopy near heavy meson thresholds. We employ heavy pseudoscalar meson P and heavy vector meson P* as effective degrees of freedom and consider meson exchange potentials between them. All possible composite…
Recently experimentalists have discovered several charged charmonium-like hadrons $Z_c^+$ with unconventional quark content $\bar cc\bar d u$. We perform a search for $Z_c^+$ with mass below $4.2~$GeV in the channel…
The spectrum of hadronic molecules composed of heavy-antiheavy charmed hadrons has been obtained in our previous work. The potentials are constants at the leading order, which are estimated from resonance saturation. The experimental…
In this work we study the properties of hadronic molecules in the heavy-quark sector. These have become increasingly important since from the beginning of this century a large number of states have been measured that for different reasons…
We study the $D^{*}_s \bar D^*$ system in connection with the $J/\psi K^*$ in coupled channels and observe that, within reasonable values of the cut-off used to regularize the loops, the system does not develop a bound state. However, the…
We perform a systematic study of the possible molecular states composed of a pair of heavy mesons such as $D\bar D$, $D^\ast\bar D$, $D^\ast \bar D^\ast$ in the framework of the meson exchange model. The exchanged mesons include the…
We have studied the meson-baryon interaction in coupled channels with the same quantum numbers of $\Xi_{bc}$. The interaction is attractive in some channels and of sufficient intensity to lead to bound states or resonances. We use a model…
The exploration of energies above the open-flavor threshold in the meson spectra has led to the appearance of unexpected states difficult to accommodate in the naive picture of a bound state of a quark and an antiquark. Many of such states…
Inspired by the recent findings of $Z_{cs}$ and $P_{cs}$ states, we investigate the strong interactions of the systems with open strangeness(es) from the light sector to the heavy sector (no beauty quark), where the interaction potential is…
Motivated by the experimental findings of some new exotic states decaying into channels like $J/\psi \phi$, we investigate the formation of resonances/bound states in the $D^*_s\bar D^*_s$ system using QCD sum rules. To do this we start…
We propose that the $X(3915)$ observed in the $J/\psi\,\omega$ channel is the same state as the $\chi_{c2}(3930)$, and the $X(3960)$, observed in the $D_s^+D_s^-$ channel, is an $S$-wave $D_s^+ D_s^-$ hadronic molecule. In addition, the…
The $D^{*}\bar{D}^{*}$ and $B^{*}\bar{B}^{*}$ systems are studied dynamically in the one boson exchange model, where $\pi$, $\eta$, $\sigma$, $\rho$ and $\omega$ exchanges are taken into account. Ten allowed states with low spin parity are…
The discovery of numerous new hadrons over the past two decades has provided unprecedented opportunities to understand the non-perturbative QCD and hadron structure. Hadronic molecule picture plays an important role in explaining these new…
In this work the $B\bar{B}^*/D\bar{D}^*$ system is studied in the Bethe-Salpeter approach with quasipotential approximation. In our calculation both direct and cross diagrams are included in the one-boson-exchange potential. The numerical…
In this work, we systematically investigate the heavy-strange meson systems, $D^{(*)}K^{(*)}/\bar{B}^{(*)}K^{(*)}$ and $\bar{D}^{(*)}K^{(*)}/B^{(*)}K^{(*)}$, to study possible molecules in a quasipotenial Bethe-Salpter equation approach…
Charmonium states can decay into pairs of $D$ and $\overline{D}$ mesons if their masses are above the allowed decay thresholds. In general $c\bar{c}$ states near threshold will also undergo mixing with $D\overline{D}$ molecular (or…
In recent years, more and more exotic hadronic states have been discovered successively. Many of them can be explained as hadronic molecules, such as $D_{s0}^*(2317)$, $X(3872)$, and $P_c$ pentaquark states. Analogous to the formation of…
