In this work we investigate the $X(3872)$ meson with quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ in the framework of the thermal QCD sum rules method. We use a diquark-antidiquark current with the corresponding quantum numbers and calculate the…

The properties of the resonance X(3872) are discussed under the assumption that this resonance is dominantly a `molecular' $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ state of neutral $D$ and $D^*$ mesons. It is argued that in these properties should dominate the…

Since the discovery of the X(3872) in 2003 the B-factory experiments BaBar and Belle have been driving forces in the spectroscopy of new charmonium-like states. In this article the latest results on the decays X(3872) -> D0 D*0bar and…

In order to understand the structure of the X(3872), the $c \bar c$ charmonium core state coupling to the $D^0 \bar D^{\ast 0}$ and $D^+ D^{\ast -}$ molecular states are studied. The strengths of the couplings between the charmonium state…

Using the QCD spectral sum rule approach we investigate different currents with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$, which could be associated with the $X(3872)$ meson. Our results indicate that, with a four-quark or molecular structure, it is very difficult…

Since the discovery of X(3872), its structure has been in ceaseless dispute. The data of $X(3872)\rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0 J/\psi$ suggest that X(3872) may be a high-spin charmonium-like of $2^{-+}$. In terms of the light front quark…

Charmonium spectroscopy gained renewed interest after the discovery in 2003 of the unpredicted X(3872) charmonium-like state, above the $D\overline{D}$ threshold. To date many charmonium-like states above the $D\overline{D}$ threshold have…

We use QCD spectral sum rules to test the nature of the meson X(3872), assumed to be an exotic four-quark (c\bar{c}q\bar{q}) state with J^{PC}=1^{++}. For definiteness, we work with the current proposed recently by Maiani et al [1], at…

We report on some ideas concerning the nature of the X(3872) resonance and the need for approximately equal charged and neutral components of $D \bar{D}^* +cc$. Then we discuss how some hidden charm states are obtained from the interaction…

We report on a search for the recently reported X(3872) state using 15.1 fb^{-1} e+ e- data taken in the \sqrt{s} = 9.46-11.30 GeV region. Separate searches for the production of X(3872) in untagged gamma-gamma fusion and e+ e- annihilation…

In this work, we propose a new method to detect the composition of the $X(3872)$ state. Based on a widely accepted interpretation that $X(3872)$ is a weakly bound $S$-wave molecule of the $D^{*0} \bar{D}^{0}$ (neutral) and $D^{*+} D^{-}$…

The present day experimental data on the $X(3872)$ decays do not allow to make clear conclusions on the dominating structure of this state. We discuss here an alternative way to study its structure by means of the two-step $\bar D^*$ (or…

The search for multi-quark states beyond the constituent quark model (CQM) has resulted in the discovery of many new exotic states, starting with the observation of the X(3872), discovered by Belle in 2003. Also in the sector of…

We perform a coupled channel calculation of the $DD^*$ and $c\bar c$ sectors in the framework of a constituent quark model. The interaction for the $DD^*$ states is obtained using the Resonant Group Method (RGM) and the underlying quark…

It has been argued that the mystery boson X(3872) is a molecule state consisting of primarily D0-D0*bar + D0bar-D*0. In contrast, apparent puzzles and potential difficulties have been pointed out for the charmonium assignment of X(3872). We…

Since the discovery of the $X(3872)$ the study of heavy meson molecules has been the subject of many investigations. On the experimental side different experiments have looked for its spin partners and the bottom analogs. On the theoretical…

An analysis including most recent Belle data on X(3872) is performed, using coupled channel Flatt\'e formula. A third sheet pole close to but \textit{below} $D^0D^{*0}$ threshold is found, besides the bound state/virtual state pole…

Exotic charmonium-like states have been observed by various experiments over the last 15 years, but their nature is still under discussion. Photo-(muo)production is a new promising instrument to study them. COMPASS, a fixed target…

The $X(3872)$ is the first and the most interesting one amongst the abundant $XYZ$ states. Its mass coincides exactly with the $D^0\bar D^{*0}$ threshold with an uncertainty of 180 keV. Precise knowledge of its mass is crucial to understand…

All existing experimental evidence of the bound state nature of the $X(3872)$ relies on considering its decay products with a finite experimental spectral mass resolution which is typically $\Delta m \ge 2 $MeV and much larger than its…
