Using a constituent quark model we study the mass and decay channels of meson meson and meson baryon structures in the charm sector. We show that the $X(3872)$ and $X(3940)$ resonances can be described as mixed charmonium-molecular states…

In this talk I review the history of models of strong decays, from the original model through applications to charmonium, light and charmed mesons, glueballs and hybrids. Our current rather limited understanding of the QCD mechanism of…

We consider the nonleptonic B decays $ B \to D^{(*)} D_s(2317)$ and $ B \to D^{(*)} D_s(2460)$, involving the newly discovered $D_s(2317)$ and the $D_s(2460)$ states. We find that experiments indicate disagreement with model calculations of…

We elaborate masses of open-charm mesons (c\bar{d} and c\bar{s}) with J^P=0^-,1^-,0^+,1^+ from a viewpoint of ordinary light-heavy systems in the analysis of standard Borel-transformed QCD sum rule. This analysis is implemented with the…

Newly observed two charmed-strange resonances, $D_{s1}^*(2860)$ and $D_{s3}^*(2860)$, are investigated by calculating their Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka allowed strong decays, which shows that they are suitable candidates for the $1^3D_1$ and…

We study the renormalization of the properties of low lying charm and hidden charm scalar mesons in a nuclear medium, concretely of the D_{s0}(2317) and the theoretical hidden charm state X(3700). We find that for the D_{s0}(2317), with…

The positive parity scalar D$_{s0}^*$(2317) and axial-vector D$_{s1}^*$(2460) charmed strange mesons are generated by coupled-channel dynamics through the s-wave scattering of Goldstone bosons off the pseudoscalar and vector D(D$_s$)-meson…

Rare electromagnetic decays of charmed mesons are useful laboratories to explore the structure of hadronic states and the interactions between photon and charmed mesons, to test the chiral perturbation theory in flavor sector and to search…

The new members of the charm-strange family $D_{sJ}^{*}(2317)$, $D_{sJ}(2460)$ and $D_s(2632)$, which have the surprising properties, are challenging the present models. Many theoretical interpretations have been devoted to this issue. Most…

We discuss a possible interpretation of the Ds1(2460) meson as a hadronic molecule - a bound state of D* and K mesons. Using a phenomenological Lagrangian approach we determine the strong Ds1 to Ds* pi0 and radiative Ds1 to Ds gamma decays.…

The newly observed $D_{sJ}^*$ family containing $D_{sJ}^{*}(2317)$, $D_{sJ}(2460)$ and $D_{sJ}(2632)$ attracts great interests. Determining their structure may be important tasks for both theorists and experimentalists. In this work we use…

A study of the $D_{sJ}^*(2317)^+$ and $D_{sJ}(2460)^+$ mesons in inclusive $c\bar{c}$ production is presented using 232 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of data collected by the BaBar experiment near $\sqrt{s} = 10.6$ \gev. Final states consisting of a…

Charmed scalar mesons are studied. By assigning the newly observed charmed strange meson with a narrow width to one of the iso-triplet four-quark mesons, decays of the multiplet members are investigated and, as the consequence, existence of…

We analyze two recent reactions of Belle, producing $D\bar D$ and $D\bar D^*$ states that have an enhancement of the invariant $D\bar D$, $D\bar D^*$ mass distribution close to threshold, from the point of view that they might be indicative…

We propose that the search of the $B\to D^{*}_{sJ}M$ decays, $M=D$, $\pi$ and $K$, can discriminate the different theoretical postulations for the nature of the recently observed $D^{*}_{sJ}$ mesons. The ratio of the branching ratios…

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…
