The single charmed excited $\Xi_c(2930)$ state was discovered many years ago by BABAR collaboration and recently confirmed by Belle experiment. However, both of these experiments, unfortunately, could not fix the quantum numbers of this…

We study a system made from $K^{*+}D^{*+}K^{*+}$ with charge $3$, isospin $I=3/2$, spin $J=3$, and a quark content of $c\bar d \bar s u \bar s u$, which make it highly exotic relative to the standard $q\bar q$ structure of mesons. The…

Masses of the ground and excited (1P, 2S, 1D, 2P, 3S) states of the fully-heavy tetraquarks, composed of charm ($c$) and bottom ($b$) quarks and antiquarks, are calculated in the diquark-antidiquark picture within the relativistic quark…

A semi-relativistic potential model is adopted to calculate the mass spectra of charmed and charmed-strange meson states up to the $2D$ excitations.The strong decay properties are further analyzed with a chiral quark model by using the…

We have used the dynamically constrained phase space coalescence model to study the production of the exotic state $X(3872)$ based on the hadronic final states generated by the parton and hadron cascade model (PACIAE) with $|y|<1$ and $p_T…

Using 4.7 fb^-1 of data taken at CESR at energies at and near the Upsilon(4S) we have studied the decay B- -> D{*+}pi-pi- (and its conjugate). We observe a new, broad charmed meson state, which we interpret as D_J(j=1/2), in its decay to…

The BESIII Collaboration claimed that a new $a_{0}(1817)$ resonance was found in the recent results of the $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K^{+}\pi^{0}$ decay. For this decay process, we perform a unitary amplitude to analyze the…

Decays of scalar mesons $K^*_0(800) \to K\pi$ and $K^*_0(1430) \to K\pi, K \eta, K \eta', K_1 \pi$ are described in the extended $U(3 ) \times U(3)$ Nambu - Jona-Lasinio chiral quark model. The obtained results are in satisfactory agreement…

Recently, a hadronic state named $\eta_1(1855)$, about 1.86 GeV, was observed in the BESIII experiment. This finding has a peculiar interest due to its exotic quantum number $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$. In this paper, we examine the tetraquark…

In this work, we investigate the mass spectra of excited charmonia employing a nonrelativistic potential model with screening effect, and analyze their two-body strong decay, two-photon decay, leptonic decay, and hadronic transitions.…

We have searched for exclusive production of exotic charmonia in the reaction $\mu^+~N \rightarrow \mu^+ (J\!/\!\psi\pi^+\pi^-)\pi^{\pm}~N'$ using COMPASS data collected with incoming muons of 160 GeV/$c$ and 200 GeV/$c$ momentum. In the…

Motivated by the observation of the $J^P = 1^+$ resonance $X(2085)$ in the $p\bar{\Lambda}$ system by the BESIII collaboration, we studied the molecular states of hexaquarks $p\bar{\Lambda}$ and $p\bar{\Sigma}$ with baryon-antibaryon…

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…

The recently discovered $D_{s0}(2590)$ state by the LHCb collaboration was regarded as the first excited state of $^1S_{0}$ charmed-strange meson. Its mass is, however, lower than the Godfrey-Isgur quark model prediction by about 80 MeV. In…

The implications of the $f_1(1285)-f_1(1420)$ mixing for the $K_1(^3P_1)-K_1(^1P_1)$ mixing angle is investigated. Based on the $f_1(1285)-f_1(1420)$ mixing angle $\sim 50^\circ$ suggested from the analysis for a substantial body of data…
