We study the production of the spin partner of the X(3872), which is a D^{*}\bar D^{*} bound state with quantum numbers J^{PC}=2^{++} and named X_2(4012) here, with the associated emission of a photon in electron--positron collisions. The…
Using data recorded by the CLEO-II detector at CESR, we report the first observation of a narrow state decaying into $\Xi_c^+\pi^-$. The state has mass difference $M(\Xi_c^+\pi^-)-M(\Xi_c^+)$ of $178.2\pm0.5\pm1.0$ $\rm{MeV/c^2}$, and a…
In this work, we investigate the decays of meson $X(4160)$ in the molecular frame. By using an effective lagrangian approach, we calculate the widths of $X(4160)\to J/\psi\phi$, $D^*\bar{D}^*$, $D^*\bar{D}$ and $D\bar{D}$ through the…
In this work, we revisit the isospin violating decays of $X(3872)$ in a coupled-channel effective field theory. In the molecular scheme, the $X(3872)$ is interpreted as the bound state of $\bar{D}^{*0}D^0/\bar{D}^0D^{*0}$ and…
Using data from the FOCUS experiment we analyze the $D^+\pi^-$ and $D^0\pi^+$ invariant mass distributions. We measure the $D_2^{*0}$ mass $M_{D_2^{*0}} = (2464.5 \pm 1.1 \pm 1.9) \mev$ and width $\Gamma_{D_2^{*0}} = (38.7 \pm 5.3 \pm 2.9)…
We give a systematical study on the recently reported excited charm and charm-strange mesons with potential $1^-$ spin-parity, including the $D^*_{s1}(2700)^+$, $D^*_{s1}(2860)^+$, $D^*(2600)^0$, $D^*(2650)^0$, $D^*_1(2680)^0$ and…
The observed deviations from the Standard Model in several b -> s mu mu processes can be explained in terms of a new vector boson produced on-shell in B meson decays. A mass of 2.5-3 GeV and a total width of 10-20% allow to hide the…
The X(3872) has non-charmonium-like properties, such as decay processes that seem to violate isospin, and a mass that lies unexpectedly close to the neutral-D-plus-neutral-D-excited-state threshold. An EFT that includes both charmonium-like…
We investigate heavy quark symmetries for heavy light meson-antimeson systems in a contact-range effective field theory. In the SU(3) light flavor limit, the leading order Lagrangian respecting heavy quark spin symmetry contains four…
The mass spectrum and strong decays of the X(1870) and $\eta_2(1870)$ are analyzed. Our results indicate that X(1870) and $\eta_2(1870)$ are the two different resonances. The narrower X(1870) seems likely a good hybrid candidate. We support…
The processes $X(3872)\to D^{*0}\bar{D^{0}}+c.c.,~\gamma J/\psi,~\gamma \psi(2S),$ and $\gamma D^{+}D^{-}$ are searched for in a $9.0~\rm fb^{-1}$ data sample collected at center-of-mass energies between $4.178$ and $4.278$ GeV with the…
Partial decay widths of the heavy-light mesons, $D, D_s, B,$ and $B_s$, emitting one chiral particle ($\pi$ or $K$) are evaluated in the framework of a relativistic potential model. Decay amplitudes are calculated by keeping the Lorentz…
We analyze recent data from the Babar and Belle Collaborations on the X(3872) resonance in the J/psi pi+ pi- and D0 D0-bar pi0 decay channels, taking careful account of the universal features of an S-wave threshold resonance. Because the…
We search for the weak decays $\psi(2S)\to D_s^-\pi^+ + c.c.$ and $\psi(2S)\to D_s^-\rho^+ + c.c.$ for the first time. The search is based on $(2712.4\pm14.3)\times 10^6$ events containing the charmonium state $\psi(2S)$ collected at the…
In this work, we study the strong decays of the newly observed $\Xi(1620)^0$ assuming that it is a meson-baryon molecular state of $\Lambda\bar{K}$ and $\Sigma\bar{K}$. We consider four possible spin-parity assignments $J^P=1/2^{\pm}$ and…
The suitability of using non-relativistic quantum mechanics to investigate heavy quark mesons is illustrated through a study of the charmonium meson. We consider a limiting form of the QCD potential which is a simple combination of the…
We report recent results on the properties of the X(3872) produced via the B+ --> K+ X(3872) decay process. We observe X -->pi+pi-pi0 J/psi decays where the 3pi invariant masses cluster near the upper kinematic boundary suggesting that they…
With the newly measurements of $X(3872) \to J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-$ from LHCb Collaboration, in addition to the dominant contribution from the $\rho^0$ meson, we perform a theoretical study on the contribution of $\omega$ meson in the $X(3872)…
The invariant mass spectrum of the lepton pair in inclusive semileptonic $\bar B\to X_u \ell\bar\nu$ decay yields a model independent determination of $|V_{ub}|$. Unlike the lepton energy and hadronic invariant mass spectra, nonperturbative…
We study three newly observed D(2550), D(2610), and D(2760) by the BaBar Collaboration utilizing the mass spectra and investigating the strong decays. Our calculation indicates that D(2610) is an admixture of $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ with…
