We describe a recent lattice-QCD calculation of the leptonic decay constants of heavy-light pseudoscalar mesons containing charm and bottom quarks and of the masses of the up, down, strange, charm, and bottom quarks. Results for these…
We investigate the mass spectrum and the decay properties of the $B_s$ mesons within the screened nonrelativistic quark model and the $^3P_0$ model. Our results suggest that the $B_{sJ}(6064)$ and $B_{sJ}(6114)$ states, as the first…
Recently, the LHCb Collaboration reported a signal for a new resonance in the $D_s^+ \pi^\pm$ invariant mass distribution in the decays $B\to \bar{D}^{(*)} D_s^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$ (arXiv:2411.03399). This could be a direct observation of an…
We demonstate from heavy quark symmetry that the width of D(2637) claimed by the DELPHI Collaboration is inconsistent with any bound state with one charm quark predicted in the D(2637) mass region, except possibly D*_3, D_2 or D'. The…
Stimulated by the recent observation of the $D_2^\ast(3000)$, we study the decay behaviors of the $3P$ and $2F$ charmed mesons in the present work. By comparing the masses and decay properties of the $3^3P_2$ and $2^3F_2$ charmed mesons…
The mass spectrum of the charmed mesons is investigated by considering the coupled channel effects within the nonrelativistic potential model. The predicted masses of the charmed mesons are in agreement with experimental data. The strong…

In this work, we systematically study the strong decay behaviors of the charmed mesons $D_{1}^{*}(2680)$, $D_{3}^{*}(2760)$ and $D_{2}^{*}(3000)$ reported by the LHCb collaboration. By comparing the masses and the decay properties with the…

Within the framework of heavy quark effective theory and chiral perturbation theory, masses and splittings of heavy charm mesons are studied. A mass formula is used for comprehensive analysis of low lying charm meson states.The variation of…
The ACCMM model predicts the lepton spectrum from $B$ meson decay by assuming the meson disintegrates into a spectator quark of definite mass and momentum distribution and an off shell $b$ quark whose decay leptons (boosted into the rest…
We study three newly observed D(2550), D(2610), and D(2760) by the BaBar Collaboration utilizing the mass spectra and investigating the strong decays. Our calculation indicates that D(2610) is an admixture of $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ with…

The CLEO-c experiment, running at charm threshold, has measured many charmed meson properties. Here I summarize results on leptonic and semileptonic decays of D mesons, as well as measurements hadronic decay strong phases that are relevant…
In this article, we study the strong decays of the newly observed charmed mesons $D(2550)$, $D(2600)$, $D(2750)$ and $D(2760)$ with the heavy quark effective theory in the leading order approximation, and tentatively identify the…
Three recent results from the ATLAS experiment at the LHC are presented. A new excited heavy meson state is observed through its hadronic transition to the ground state. The production cross-section of B+ mesons is measured as a function of…
Heavy-light hadrons are studied in a mass loaded flux tube model. The study indicates that the dynamics of mesons and baryons containing a $c$ quark is well described by the mass loaded flux tube. The hypothesis of good diquark-antiquark…
