With the potential prospects of the $D^{*}_{s}$ at high-luminosity heavy-flavor experiments in the future, we investigated the CKM-favored and tree-dominated leptonic $D^{*}_{s}\to\ell\bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ and semileptonic $D^{*}_{s}\to…

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 $e^+e^-$…

Several observed states close to the $D\bar{D}^*$ and $D^*_{(s)}\bar{D}^*_{(s)}$ thresholds, as the X(3872) and some XYZ particles can be described in terms of a two-meson molecule. Furthermore, doubly charmed states are also predicted.…
