Using 9.9 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.15 and 4.30 GeV, we search for the processes $e^+e^-\to\gamma X(3872)$ with $X(3872)\rightarrow\pi^0\chi_{c0}$ and…

Based on the $(2712.4\pm14.4)\times 10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we present a high-precision study of the $\pi^+\pi^-$ mass spectrum in $\psi(3686)\rightarrow\pi^{+}\pi^{-}J/\psi$ decays. A clear resonance…

Based on the world's largest $\psi(3686)$ data sample, the BESIII Collaboration recently reported a substructure near the $\pi^+\pi^-$ mass threshold in the decay $\psi(3686) \to J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$, challenging the established understanding…

Recently, there is growing evidence that a new state of matter is formed in sqrt(s_NN)= 200 GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC: a strongly coupled Quark Gluon Plasma of partonic degrees of freedom which develops a collective motion. Dilepton…

Using $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.2 $fb^{-1}$ at center-of-mass energies ($\sqrt{s}$) from 4.009 to 4.600 GeV, the process $e^{+}e^{-}…

In this paper, the nature of $X(4020)$ observed in the vicinity of the $D^*\bar D^*$ threshold of the $\pi h_c$ and $D^*\bar D^*$ distributions is studied. Using a model containing one bare-particle state with the $\pi h_c$ and $D^*\bar…

We define and compute from data the strong couplings of the X(3872) with both of the possible quantum numbers assignments J^{PC}=1^{++},2^{-+}. We use these to compute cross sections for J/psi resonance scattering into D Dbar*. As an…

We have investigated the internal structure of the open- and hidden-charmed ($DD^*$/$\bar DD^*$) molecules in the unified framework. We first fit the experimental lineshape of the $T^+_{cc}$ state and extract the $DD^*$ interaction, from…

The anomaly found in the excited $^8\text{Be}$ nuclear transition to its ground state is attributed to a spin-1 gauge boson $X(16.7)$. To hunt for this boson, we propose two traps: $e^+e^-\to X\gamma$ and $J/\psi\to X\gamma$, both following…

In 2021, the Belle collaboration reported the first observation of a new structure in the $\psi(2S) \gamma$ final state produced in the two-photon fusion process. In the hadronic molecule picture, this new structure can be associated with…

We present an analysis of angular distributions and correlations of the X(3872) particle in the exclusive decay mode X(3872)->J/psi pi+ pi- with J/psi->mu+ mu-. We use 780 pb -1 of data from ppbar collisions at sqrt{s} = 1.96 TeV collected…

We investigated the pionic transitions between the $X_2$ [spin-2 partner of the $X(3872)$] and $\chi_{c1,2}$ using a nonrelativistic effective field theory. The $X_2$ is assumed to be a bound state of the $D^{*}$ and $\bar{D}^*$ mesons and…

We observe the decays $ $D^*_{s1}(2710)^+ \to D^*K$ and $D^*_{sJ}(2860)^+ \to D^*K$ and measure their branching fractions relative to the $D K$ final state. We also observe, in the $D^*K$ mass spectrum, a new broad structure at a mass of…

The $D \bar{D}^*$ interaction via a $\pi \psi$ intermediate state is studied carefully in the isospin $I=1$ sector. By solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation in the unitary coupled-channel approximation, we obtain the S-wave amplitude as a…

We have studied isospin breaking effects in the X(3872) resonance and found a natural explanation for the branching fraction of the X decaying to $J/\psi$ with two and three pions being close to unit. Within our framework the X(3872) is a…

We show the results obtained for the cross sections of the processes $\bar D D$, $\bar D^* D$, $\bar D^* D^*\to\pi X(3872)$, information which is necessary to determine the $X(3872)$ abundance in heavy ion collisions. Our formalism is based…

We present a study of the $D^+\pi^-$, $D^0\pi^+$, and $D^{*+}\pi^-$ systems in inclusive $e^+e^- \rightarrow c\bar{c}$ interactions in a search for new excited $D$ meson states. We use a dataset, consisting of $\sim$454 fb$^{-1}$, collected…

We revisit the consequences of the heavy-quark spin symmetry for the possible spin partners of the $X(3872)$. We confirm that, if the $X(3872)$ were a $D\bar{D}^*$ molecular state with the quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{++}$, then in the strict…

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…
