Three neutral resonances $\Xi_c(2923)^0$, $\Xi_c(2939)^0$ and $\Xi_c(2965)^0$ have been observed in the $\Lambda_c^+ K^-$ mass spectrum by the LHCb Collaboration. Given the $\Xi_c$ and $\Xi_c^\prime$ mass spectra predicted by the…
Stimulated by recent experimental observation of $X_1(2900)$ just below the $\bar D_1K$ threshold, we extend our previous study of $\bar D_1D$ S-wave bound state by vector meson exchange to $\bar D_1K$ system as well as similar $\bar DK_1$,…
The $T_{c\bar{s}}$ state observed in the decay $D_{s1}(2460)^+ \to D_s^+\pi^+\pi^-$ provides direct evidence for an isovector open-charm tetraquark state with strangeness. We develop a unified theoretical framework that consistently…
In this manuscript we study the vector - vector interaction within the hidden gauge formalism in a coupled channel unitary approach. In the sector $C=1,S=1,J=2$ we get a pole in the T-matrix around $2572$ MeV that we identify with the…
In many lattice simulations with dynamical quarks, radial or orbital excitations of hadrons lie near multihadron thresholds: it makes the extraction of excited states properties more challenging and can introduce some systematics difficult…
Considering abundant experimental information of charmed mesons and the present research status, in this work we systematically study higher radial and orbital excitations in the charmed meson family by analyzing the mass spectrum and…
Partial wave analysis is performed, with effective potentials as dynamical inputs, to scrutinize the recent LHCb data on the di-$J/\psi$ invariant mass spectrum. Coupled-channel effects are incorporated in the production amplitude via final…
Distortions of the $\sqrt3\times\sqrt3$ Sn/Ge(111) and Sn/Si(111) surfaces are shown to reflect a disproportionation of an integer pseudocharge, $Q$, related to the surface band occupancy. A novel understanding of the $(3\times3)$-1U (``1…
We reveal the double pole structures of the manifestly exotic tetraquark state $X_1(2900)$ in the scenario of $P$-wave $\bar{D}^*K^*$ dimeson resonance. We find that the observed enhancement signal associated with $X_1(2900)$ in $B^+ \to…
The strong decays of charm-strange baryons up to N=2 shell are studied in a chiral quark model. The theoretical predictions for the well determined charm-strange baryons, $\Xi_c^*(2645)$, $\Xi_c(2790)$ and $\Xi_c(2815)$, are in good…
We study the phenomenology of exotic color-triplet scalar particles $X$ with charge $|Q|=2/3, 4/3,5/3,7/3,8/3$ and $10/3$. If $X$ is a non-singlet of $SU(2)_W$ representation, mass splitting within the multiplet allows for cascade decays of…
The recent observation of a hadronic resonance $d^*$ in the proton-neutron system with isospin $I = 0$ and spin-parity $J^P = 3^+$ raises the possibility of producing other novel six-quark dibaryon configurations allowed by QCD. A dramatic…
A Poincar\'e-covariant continuum approach to the three valence-quark bound-state problem in quantum field theory is used to perform a detailed analysis of the nucleon's ground and first excited states: the so-called $N(940)\frac{1}{2}^+$…
A new excited charm-strange meson is observed through an amplitude analysis of the full phase space of $B^0\to D^+ D^- K^+ \pi^-$ decays. The analysis is based on a proton-proton collision data sample collected by the \lhcb experiment at a…
A thorough study of the $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ elastic $D^{0}\bar{D}^{\ast0}$ and $D^{+}D^{\ast-}$ scattering, where the form of the meson-meson interaction is inferred from lattice QCD calculations of string breaking, is carried out for…
We study the mass spectra of D-wave excited $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ tetraquark states with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ and $1^{+-}$ in both symmetric $\mathbf{6}_{cs}\otimes\bar{\mathbf{6}}_{\bar{c}\bar{s}}$ and antisymmetric…
We report a study of DsJ*(2317)+ and DsJ(2460)+ meson production in B decays. We observe the decays B+ -> DsJ(*)+ Dbar(*)0 and B0 -> DsJ(*)+ D(*)- with the subsequent decays DsJ*(2317)+ -> Ds+ pi0, DsJ(2460)+ -> Ds+ gamma, and DsJ(2460)+ ->…
The $X(3872)$ could be a shallow $D\bar D^*$ bound state, a compact four-quark state, or a partially composite particle, i.e. a superposition of the two. We will review how these hypotheses could be tested experimentally, examining…
Very recently it was predicted the existence of a charged state near the $D_s\bar{D}^*/D^*_s\bar{D}$ threshold. This state, that we call $Z_{cs}^+$, would be the strange partner of the recently observed $Z_c^\pm(3900)$. Using standard…
We calculate the two-body strong decays of the orbitally excited scalar mesons $D_0^*(2400)$ and $D_J^*(3000)$ by using the relativistic Bethe-Salpeter (BS) method. $D_J^*(3000)$ was observed recently by the LHCb Collaboration, the quantum…
