We report the observation of a near-threshold enhancement in the omega-J/psi invariant mass distribution for exclusive B-->K omega J/psi decays. The results are obtained from a 253 fb-1 data sample that contains 275 million BB-bar meson…
We report the results of a search for the decay modes B0 -> J/psi D0bar and B+ -> J/psi D0bar pi+. The analysis is based on 140 $\rm fb^{-1}$ of data accumulated by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+} e^{-}$ collider. No…
We report evidence for the decay modes X(3872) --> gamma J/psi and X(3872)--> pi+pi-pi0 J/psip. In the latter, the pi+pi-pi0 invariant mass distribution has a strong peak between 750 MeV and the kinematic limit of 775 MeV, suggesting that…
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…
The recent Belle collaboration measurements of B decays to open and hidden charm are discussed. Color-suppressed decay branching fractions are measured with an improved accuracy. The branching fractions of the $\bar{B}^0 \to D_s^+ K^-$ and…
We have analyzed 121.4 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected at the $\Upsilon(5S)$ resonance by the Belle experiment using the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider to search for the decay $B_s^0\to J/\psi\pi^0$. We observe no signal and report an…
In this review we report the recent results of open charm decays and spectroscopy using the data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider.
We analyze two recent reactions of Belle, producing $D\bar D$ and $D\bar D^*$ states that have an enhancement of the invariant $D\bar D$, $D\bar D^*$ mass distribution close to threshold, from the point of view that they might be indicative…
The huge data sample accumulated at the KEKB storage ring allows for dedicated analyses in charm spectroscopy. A new, narrow resonance with a mass of 3.872\GeV was found in decays of $B$ mesons. Its properties remain unexplained. Results on…
We report the results of a search for the $B \to Y(4260) K, ~Y(4260)\to J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-$ decays. This study is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711~fb$^{-1}$, collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance…
We measure the branching fraction of the decay $B^0 \to J/\psi \omega$ using data collected with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider. The data contain $(387 \pm 6) \times 10^6$ $B\overline{B}$ meson pairs produced in…
The large rate of the $J/\psi+\eta_c$ production observed by the Belle collaboration has posed a serious challenge to our understanding of the quarkonium. We examine a scenario that there exists a light scalar boson around 5 GeV, with an…

We discuss some puzzling aspects of the narrow hidden charm resonance that was recently discovered by the Belle Collaboration at mass 3872 MeV. In order to determine its quantum numbers, a crucial piece of information is the spin of the…
A distinct peak is observed in the pi^+/- psi' invariant mass distribution near 4.43 GeV in B->K pi^+/- psi' decays. A fit using a Breit Wigner resonance shape yields a peak mass and width of 4433+-4(stat)+-2(syst) MeV and Gamma =…
