Power series method (PSM) is revisited to find the masses of S, P, and D states of conventional charmonium ($c\overline{c}$), bottomonium ($b\overline{b}$), and $B_c$ ($\overline{b}c$) mesons by assuming the solution of N-dimensional radial…
This paper is devoted to the study of exclusive charm and bottom aggregates which are suitable, at least partially, for a non-relativistic description. Starting from a simple choice of quarkonia and tetra-quark wave functions we study their…
If the recently-discovered charmonium state X(3870) is a loosely-bound molecule of the charm mesons D^0 and \bar D^{*0} or \bar D^0 and D^{*0}, it can be produced in e^+ e^- annihilation at the \Upsilon(4S) resonance by the coalescence of…
The $P$-wave charmonium decays $h_{c}\rightarrow\gamma\eta^{(\prime)}$ are revisited by taking into account relativistic corrections. The decay amplitudes are derived in the Bethe-Salpeter formalism, in which the involved one-loop integrals…
In the present work, we studied the $Z_{cs}^+$ exotic state production in the $B^+$ meson decays through the meson loop mechanism, where the $B^+$ meson decays into an anti-charmed meson and a charmed-strange meson pair, and consequently…
We study the exclusive two-body nonleptonic $B_c\to X_{c\bar{c}}M$ decays, where $X_{c\bar{c}}$ is either a ground(1S) or a radially excited (2S or 3S) charmonium and $M$ is a pseudoscalar $(P)$ or a vector $(V)$ meson. We consider here…
The full widths of the vector charmonium and bottomonium hybrid mesons $H_{ \mathrm{c}}$ and $H_{\mathrm{b}}$, characterized by the quantum numbers $1^{ \mathrm{--}}$, are determined by analyzing their dominant strong decay modes:…
We suggest searching for excited charmonium states in $e^+e^-$ annihilation via double charmonium production at $\sqrt{s}=10.6$ GeV with $B$ factories, based on a more complete leading order calculation including both QCD and QED…
It is usually assumed that the production of baryons in $B$ meson decays is induced primarily by the quark level process $b\to c\bar ud$, where the charm quark hadronizes into a charmed baryon. With this assumption, the $\Lambda_c$ momentum…
This overview of what we can hope to learn from high-statistics experiments in B physics in the next few years includes: (a) a review of parameters of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) Matrix; (b) direct determination of magnitudes of CKM…
If the recently-discovered charmonium-like state X(3872) is a loosely-bound S-wave molecule of the charm mesons D^0 \bar D^{*0} or D^{*0} \bar D^0, it can be produced through the weak decay of the B meson into D^0 \bar D^{*0} K or D^{*0}…
Nonleptonic two body $B_c$ decays including radially excited $\psi(2S)$ or $\eta_c(2S)$ mesons in the final state are studied using the perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization. The charmonium distribution amplitudes are…
In this work, we investigate the open-charm decay process $\psi\to\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ via the hadronic loop mechanism for vector charmonia above $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c$ threshold. The branching ratios of these vector charmonium…
Using $\psi(3686)\rightarrow \pi^{0} h_{c}$ decays from a data sample of $(27.12\pm0.14)\times10^{8}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, $h_c$ radiative decays to…
By virtue of SU(3) flavor symmetry, the effective interaction Hamiltonian is derived in tensor form. The strong and electromagnetic breaking effects are taken into account in a form of "spurion" octet, so that the systematical…
Charmonium is a bound state of a charmed quark and a charmed antiquark, and a charmoniumlike state is a resonant structure that contains a charmed quark and antiquark pair but has properties that are incompatible with a conventional…
New measurements of the masses and decay branching fractions of charmonium and bottomonium states using the data collected by the CLEO detector are presented. These include CLEO identification of the singlet states eta_c'(2S), hc(1P), and…
We report on recent measurements, from the BaBar and Belle experiments, of B-meson decays to purely hadronic final states that do not contain charm. The studies are based on large samples of BBbar pairs collected at the Upsilon(4S) or…
We develop a framework to study the exclusive two-body decays of bottomonium into two charmed mesons and apply it to study the decays of the C-even bottomonia. Using a sequence of effective field theories, we take advantage of the…
In this study, the properties of the $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ hidden charm poles are analyzed under the variation of the bare 2P charmonium mass within the effective field theory proposed in Ref.[1]. The main focus of the current work is on the pole…
