We report the first observation of a narrow charmmonium state produced in the exclusive decay process B+->K+ pi+pi- J/psi. This state, which decays into pi+pi-J/psi, has a mass of 3871.8+-0.7(stat)+-0.4(syst) MeV, which is very near the M_D…

The analysis of $B \to \jpsi K^{\star}_{2}(1430)$ decay mode is complicated by the fact that close to the $J^{PC}=2^{++}$ meson $\Kstart(1430)$, there lie other $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ and $J^{PC}=0^{++}$ resonances, $K^{\star}(1410)$ and…

We review recent experimental results on Bd and Bs mesons decays by the BaBar and Belle experiments. These include measurements of the color-suppressed decays B0bar to D(*)0h0, h0=pi0, eta, etaprime, omega, observation of the baryonic decay…

We study the $J/\psi \to \phi K \bar K$ decay, looking for differences in the production rates of $K^+ K^-$ or $K^0 \bar K^0$ in the region of 1700-1800 MeV, where two resonances appear dynamically generated from the vector-vector…

Recent results on charmonia decays at BESII/BEPC are reported, including the observation of psi'-->K_S K_L, psi'--> Vector + Tensor and psi'--> Vector + Pseudoscalar for the measurement of the relative phase between the strong and…

We propose a new explanation for the longstanding puzzle of the tiny branching fraction of psi' -> rho pi relative to that for J/psi -> rho pi. In the case of J/psi, we argue that this decay is dominated by a higher Fock state in which the…

The size of the direct CP asymmetry generated during the weak decay of hadrons is attributed to the weak phase and some strong phases. The weak phase comes from the CKM matrix and a strong phase may result from the resonance effect which is…

The first observation of the $B_c^+ \to J/\psi \pi^+ \pi^0$ decay is reported with high significance using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9fb$^{-1}$, collected with the LHCb detector at…

Motivated by recent interest in soft $J/\Psi$ production in B decays, we investigate ${B}^0 \to J/\Psi D^{(\star)}$ and $\eta_c D^{(\star)}$ decays in perturbative QCD. We find that, within that framework, these decays are calculable since…

Based on the data samples collected at the energies of $J/\psi$, $\psi(3686)$, $\psi(3770)$ and $\psi(4040)$ resonances with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, we present charmonium decays in two aspects. One is the search for…

We study the resonant contributions in the process $\bar{B}^0\to K^- \pi^+\mu^+\mu^-$ with the $K^-\pi^+$ invariant mass square $m_{K\pi}^2\in [1, 5] {\rm GeV}^2$. Width effects of the involved strange mesons, $K^*(1410), K_0^*(1430),…

Recent results on studies of exotic hadrons at the LHCb experiment are summarised. These are the observation of new resonances decaying to J/$\psi K^{+}$ and J/$\psi\phi$, evidence of a J/$\psi\Lambda$ structure and observation of excited…

Initiated by the recent observation of a flattened lineshape of $IJ^{PC}=00^{-+}$ around $1.4\sim 1.5$ GeV in the $K_S K_S \pi^0$ invariant mass spectrum by BESIII, we make a systematic partial wave analysis of $J/\psi \to\gamma\eta_X\to…

We comment on the recent observation of the decay mode D(sJ)(*)(2860)-->D(*)K by the BABAR Collaboration [arXiv:0908.0806], and contest their peremptory conclusion that the data exclude a 0(+) assignment for the D(sJ)(*)(2860). In…

The interaction of the charmonium resonances J/psi and psi' with nucleons at low energies is considered using the multipole expansion and low-energy theorems in QCD. A lower bound is established for the relevant gluonic operator average…

We present a microscopic calculation of the breakup cross sections of $J/\psi$ and $\psi'$ on pions and nucleons as a function of the kinetic energy. These cross sections are used for the investigation of the $J/\psi$ to continuum and…
