I discuss the most recently discovered open charm mesons, both with and without strangeness. By exploiting the heavy quark limit, strong decay widths of such mesons are computed. Comparison between theoretical predictions and experimental…
In this invited presentation I review some recent developments in the theory of charmonium that appear likely to be of importance for future experimental studies in this field. The specific areas considered are double charmonium production,…
The beauty hadron decays is unique laboratory to study charmonium and charmonium-like states, such as the $\chi_{c1}(3872)$ meson, other exotic states and the tensor D-wave $\psi_2(3823$) states. However the nature of many exotic…
With the discovery of new states in recent years, interest in spectroscopy has revived. Recent experimental results in heavy flavour spectroscopy are reviewed, including charmonium, bottomonium, charmed mesons and baryons and bottom mesons.
We systematically investigate the mass spectrum and two-body open-charm strong decays of charmonium states in a coupled-channel model where the $^3P_0$ quark-antiquark pair creation mechanism is employed. The results of masses, mass shifts,…
We review the most recent results from experiments studying systems containing charmed quarks. The selection reflects the presenter's bias, and there is an emphasis on decays of open charm. We discuss precision measurements of various…
It is suggested that the recently reported charged charmoniumlike resonance $Z_c(4100)$ and the previously observed $Z_c(4200)$ are two states of hadrocharmonium, related by the charm quark spin symmetry in the same way as the lowest…
This review briefly outlines recent experimental results from the charmonium system. These include new measurements of the M1 radiative transition rates $B(\psi(1S,2S)\to\gamma\eta_c(1S))$; new insights into the mass of the $\eta_c(1S)$;…
The effects of virtual light quark pairs on the charmonium spectrum are studied. Pair creation is modelled with a ``$^{3}P_{0}$" vertex and intermediate states are summed up to 2S excitations. Quark model parameters are obtained by fitting…
The observation of many unexpected states decaying into heavy quarkonia has challenged the usual Q-Qbar interpretation. We will discuss the nature of some of the charmonium-like resonances recently observed by BES III and LHCb, and their…
Recent years have brought a dense sequence of experimental discoveries in heavy-flavor hadron spectroscopy. Heavy-flavor spectroscopy has entered a period in which new hadronic structures are no longer isolated surprises but recurring…
We present a concise review of the vector charmonium state $\psi(4230)$, which was originally labelled as $Y(4260)$ in the literature. As one of the earliest candidates for a QCD exotic states, its interpretation has initiated various ideas…
While experiment produced a candidate for the 1^P_1 chamonium in the past, it still requires a confirmation. Given the recent progress in the exclusive B decay into charmonia, we now have an opportunity to detect this charmonium (h_c) by…
Many new states in the charmonium mass region were recently discovered by BaBar, Belle, CLEO-c, CDF, D0, BESIII, LHCb and CMS Collaborations. We use the QCD Sum Rule approach to study the possible structure of some of these states.
Recently, a charmonium $X(3960)$ in $B$ decays in the $D_s^+D_s^-$ invariant-mass spectrum is discovered by the LHCb Collaboration with the quantum number $J^{PC}=0^{++}$. Motivated by the discovery, in this work, we systematically…
Recent experimental results in charm and charmonium spectroscopy are reviewed.
The elaborate analysis of spectrum of charmonium states and charmed hybrids in the mass region over DD-threshold is given. The combined approach based on the potential model and relativistic spherical symmetric top model for decay products…
A survey of the experimental, phenomenological, and theoretical status of the new heavy mesons is presented. States discussed are the $B_c$, $h_c$, $\eta_c'$, $D_s(2317)$, $D_s(2460)$, X(3872), X(3940), Y(3940), Z(3930), and Y(4260). Quark…
The charmonium and bottomonium spectra computed from a potential defined from a single gauge configuration, obtained from solving the classical field equations, is discussed. The theoretical spectra shows good agreement with the measured…
Inspired by the similarity of mass gaps of $J/\psi$ and $\Upsilon$ families, the prediction of missing higher charmonium with mass $4263$ MeV and very narrow width is made. In addition, the properties of two charmonium-like states,…
