In this work, we adopt the one-boson exchange model to analyze the $D^{(*)}_{(s)}B^{(*)}_{(s)}$ interactions from a coupled-channel perspective. For the $I(J^{P})=1(1^{+})$ $DB^{*}/D^*B/D^*B^{*}$ system, employing the complex scaling…
We perform a unitary coupled channel study of the interaction of the $D^{*+} D^0, D^{*0} D^+$ channels and find a state barely bound, very close to isospin $I=0$. We take the experimental mass as input and obtain the width of the state and…
We explore molecular states of two open heavy-quark mesons (Q qbar)-(qbar Q) in a quark-based model in terms of a four-body non-relativistic Hamiltonian with pairwise effective interactions. Molecular states are found in the combinations of…
Many mesons with properties incompatible with a $\bar cc$ structure have already been discovered, e.g. the $Z_c$ mesons with isospin 1. We investigate the spectrum of exotic charmonium-like mesons using lattice QCD. The focus is on $\bar cc…
We study the interaction of a neutron with the $\bar D_{s0}^*(2317)$ resonance and look at the amplitude below threshold and close above threshold. The study is done from the perspective that the $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ resonance is a molecular…
We have studied the meson-baryon $S-$wave interaction, using coupled channels, in the isoscalar hidden-charm strange sector and $J^P = 1/2^-,3/2^-$ and $5/2^-$. We impose constraints of heavy quark spin symmetry in the interaction and…
We investigate the dynamically generated $h_1$ state with spin-parity $J^P = 1^+$ and a mass around 1790~MeV, arising from the $K^* \bar{K}^*$ interaction within the chiral unitary approach. The partial decay widths into the…

An exotic narrow state in the $D^0D^0\pi^+$ mass spectrum just below the $D^{*+}D^0$ mass threshold is studied using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb$^{-1}$ acquired with the LHCb detector in proton-proton…
The doubly charmed exotic state $T_{cc}$ recently discovered by the LHCb Collaboration could well be a $DD^{*}$ molecular state long predicted in various theoretical models, in particular, the $DD^*$ isoscalar axial vector molecular state…
The interactions of $\bar{D}^{(*)} \Lambda_c - \bar{D}^{(*)}\Sigma_c^{(*)}$ are studied within the framework of a dynamical coupled-channel approach. A series of bound states and resonances with different spin and parity are dynamically…
In this work we provide predictions for bottom-strange molecular states within the Hidden Gauge Formalism. We study the coupled-channel scattering of $B^{(*)}\bar{K}^{(*)}$ states and, by fixing only one free parameter to obtain the mass of…
Scattering amplitudes involving three-particle scattering processes are investigated within the isobar approximation which respects constraints from two- and three-body unitarity. The particular system considered is the…
We perform a Faddeev calculation for the three mesons system, $\phi K \bar{K}$, taking the interaction between two pseudoscalar mesons and between a vector and a pseudoscalar meson from the chiral unitary approach. We obtain a neat…

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…
We predict exotic doubly heavy--strange pentaquarks with minimal quark content $u\bar d sQQ'$ ($QQ'=cc,bc,bb$) within a coupled-channel unitary framework where the interaction is derived from an extension of the local hidden gauge approach…
We confirm our previous prediction of a $d^*$ state with $I(J^P)=0(3^+)$ [Phys. Rev. C 60, 045203 (1999)] and report for the first time based on a microscopic calculation that $d^*$ is a hexaquark dominated exotic state as it has about 2/3…
We study the $K\Lambda(1405)$ configuration of the $K\bar{K}N$ system by considering $K\pi\Sigma$ as a coupled channel. We solve the Faddeev equations for these systems and find confirmation of the existence of a new $N^{*}$ resonance…
