New results on hadron spectra have been appearing in abundance in the past few years as a result of improved experimental techniques. These include information on states made of both light quarks (u, d, and s) and with one or more heavy…
We review the experimental progress on the study of light and heavy hadrons and focus on recent discoveries of the XYZ states, pentaquark states, $T_{cs}$ and $T_{cc}$ states in the heavy hadron sector, and on the $\pi_1(1600)$ and the…
We present some recent results from soliton model calculations for the spectrum of baryons with a single heavy quark.The model comprises chiral symmetry for light flavors and (approximate) heavy spin-flavor symmetry for the heavy quarks. We…
The chromomagnetic interaction, with full account for flavour-symmetry breaking, is applied to S-wave configurations containing two quarks and two antiquarks. Phenomenological implications are discussed for light, charmed, charmed and…
In recent years the B-factories and other machines have found evidence for a large number of new states with hidden charm: candidate h_c(1P), eta_c(2S), and chi_{c2}(2P) states; the well-established X(3872); enhancements called X(3940),…
The most important advances achieved recently on the double heavy flavored mesons are reviewed. Some problems and outlooks on them are also outlined.
In recent years, lattice QCD calculations of hadron spectroscopy have concentrated on resonances and shallow bound states detected via poles in two- and three-hadron scattering amplitudes. Hadron interactions have therefore become a key…
Quarks of other flavours than up and down, i.e. $s$, $c$, and $b$ quarks, have been long recognized as effective probes of the structure of hot QCD matter. In this talk, I review some of the motivations for their investigation and discuss…
Open charm hadrons are excellent probe to study the dynamics of quarks and gluons inside hadrons. Because the mass of a charm quark is heavier than $\Lambda_{QCD}$, the so called heavy quark symmetry emerges in the hadron containing a charm…
The Tevatron experiments CDF and D0 have filled many empty spots in the spectrum of heavy baryons over the last few years. The most recent results are described in this article: The first direct observation of the Xi_b^0, improved…
This is a summary of experimental results on photons, leptons, and heavy quarks presented at Quark Matter 2008. A first measurement of the bottom to charm contribution to the lepton spectrum has given experimental indication for the…
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…
This review presents flavour related issues in the production and decays of heavy states at LHC, both from the experimental side and from the theoretical side. We review top quark physics and discuss flavour aspects of several extensions of…
Results are presented for the low-lying spectrum of D and D_s mesons calculated in lattice QCD using 2+1 flavor Clover-Wilson configurations made available by the PACS-CS collaboration. For the heavy quark, the Fermilab method is employed.…
The experimental status of stable bound states made out of heavy quarks is reviewed. The need for a way to deal with the non-perturbative transitions involved calls for precision measurements on one hand, and for discovery of as yet…
Preliminary results for the spectra of excited and exotic bottom mesons are presented. The calculation on a dynamical anisotropic ensemble exploits distillation, enabling the use of a large basis of interpolating operators including those…
A brief report of some recent experimental developments concerning the $X$, $Y$ and $Z$ charmoniumlike mesons states and other puzzling states from the BaBar, Belle, BESIII and CDF experiments is presented.
We investigate the mass spectra of molecular-type hexaquark states in the dibaryon systems. These systems are composed of the charmed baryons $[\Sigma_c^{(\ast)}$, $\Xi_c^{(\prime,\ast)}]$, doubly charmed baryons $[\Xi_{cc}^{(\ast)}]$, and…
Tremendous progress has been made in mapping out the spectrum of hadrons over the past decade with plans to make further advances in the decade ahead. Baryons and mesons, both expected and unexpected, have been found, the results of…
Recent results involving hadronic decays of charmed mesons and baryons are reviewed. Information relevant to decay mechanisms and to light quark scalar mesons is discussed.
