The Lambdac(2940)+ baryon with quantum numbers J(P) = 1/2(+) is considered as a molecular state composed of a nucleon and D* meson. We give predictions for the width of the radiative decay process Lambdac(2940)+ to Lambdac(2286)+ gamma in…
Using a constituent quark model we study the mass and decay channels of meson meson and meson baryon structures in the charm sector. We show that the $X(3872)$ and $X(3940)$ resonances can be described as mixed charmonium-molecular states…
In the present work, we study the radiative decay of newly observed $\Xi_c(2923)^0$ based on the successful explanation that $\Xi_c(2923)^0$ is an $S$-wave $D\Lambda-D\Sigma$ molecular state in our previous study~\cite{Zhu:2020jke}. The…
A new baryonic state $\Lambda_{c}(2940)^{+}$ has recently been discovered by the Babar collaboration in the $D^{0}p$ channel. Later Belle collaboration also observed this state in the $\Sigma_c(2455)^{0,++} \pi^{\pm}\to…
We discuss a possible interpretation of the open charm mesons $D_{s0}^*(2317)$, $D_{s1}(2460)$ and the hidden charm mesons X(3872), Y(3940) and Y(4140) as hadron molecules. Using a phenomenological Lagrangian approach we review the strong…
We study the $Z^\pm(4430)$ meson within a heavy hadron molecule interpretation where the $Z$ is considered as a bound state of a vector $D^\ast(2010)$ and an axial-vector $D_1(2420)$. We give predictions for the strong hidden-charm…
The \Lambda_c(2940)^+ baryon is studied in a constituent quark model as a molecular state composed by nucleons and D^* mesons. A bound state with the right binding energy is found for the J^\pi=3/2^- channel. The partial widths…
It has been suggested that the radiative $X \to D \bar D \gamma$ decay modes are useful to shed light on the structure of the meson X(3872), since the ratio $ R={\Gamma(X \to D^+ D^- \gamma) \over \Gamma(X \to D^0 \bar D^0 \gamma)}$ is…
We determine the radiative decay amplitudes for decay into $D^*$ and $\bar{D} \gamma$, or $D^*_s$ and $\bar{D}_s \gamma$ of some of the charmonium like states classified as X,Y,Z resonances, plus some other hidden charm states which are…
By assuming that the $\Lambda _{c}^{\ast }(2940)$ is a $pD^{\ast 0}$ molecular state with spin-parity $J^{P}=\frac{1}{2}^{+}$ and $J^{P}=\frac{1}{2}^{-}$, the photoproduction of charmed $\Lambda _{c}^{\ast }(2940)$ baryon in the $\gamma…
The newly observed $X, Y, Z$ exotic states are definitely not in the standard $Q\bar Q'$ structures, thus their existence composes a challenge to our understanding on the fundamental principles of hadron physics. Therefore the studies on…
From a picture of the X(3872) where the resonance is a bound state of $\bar{D}D^*-c.c.$, we evaluate the decay width into the $J/\psi \gamma$ channel, which is sensitive to the internal structure of this state. For this purpose we evaluate…
After Y(4630) is discovered, theorists have given various explanations. We find that if Y(4630) is interpreted as the D-wave resonant state of $\Lambda_c \bar {\Lambda}_c$ system, the particle mass, decay width and all quantum numbers are…
We analyze the radiative decays of the the 1$P$, 1$D$, 2$S$, and 2$P$ $\Lambda_c$ and 1$D$, 2$S$, and 2$P$ $\Xi_c$ charmed baryons, which belong to the flavor anti-triplet ($\bf {\bar 3}_{\rm F}$), using the constituent quark model. We…
We investigate the role of the electromagnetic interaction in the formation and decay of the $X(3872)$. The binding properties of the $X(3872)$ are studied by assuming the molecular nature and considering the $S$-$D$ wave mixing, isospin…
In this study, by combining the equal spacing rule with recent observations of $\Omega_c(X)$ and $\Xi_c(X)$ baryons, we predict the spectrum of the low-lying $\lambda$-mode $1P$-wave excited $\Sigma_c$ states. Furthermore, their strong…
In this work, we perform a systematic investigation of the hidden-charm tetraquark states with $I^G(J^{PC})=1^+(1^{+-})$ within the hadronic molecular picture, placing particular emphasis on systems composed of an $S$-wave $(D, D^*)$ meson…
In our former work [arXiv:2011.07214], the $P_{cs}(4459)$ observed by the LHCb Collaboration can be explained as a coupled strange hidden-charm $\Xi_c\bar{D}^*/\Xi_c^*\bar{D}/\Xi_c'\bar{D}^*/\Xi_c^*\bar{D}^*$ molecule with…
In this work, we treat $\Lambda_c(2910)^+$ and $\Lambda_c(2940)^+$ as the conventional $udc$ cores dressed with the $D^*N$ channel. We provide a possible interpretation to both $\Lambda_c(2910)^+$ and $\Lambda_c(2940)^+$ within the same…
We study the X(3872)-->D^0 \bar D^0 \pi^0 decay within a D \bar D^* molecular picture for the X(3872) state. This decay mode is more sensitive to the long-distance structure of the X(3872) resonance than its J/\psi\pi\pi and J/\psi3\pi…
