We report on some ideas concerning the nature of the X(3872) resonance and the need for approximately equal charged and neutral components of $D \bar{D}^* +cc$. Then we discuss how some hidden charm states are obtained from the interaction…
We investigate the $D{\bar D}$ decay width of excited charmonium states at finite nuclear density with simultaneous modification of both $D$ and ${\bar D}$ mesons in nuclear matter. The strongest effect is found for the $\Psi^{\prime}$…
Many newly discovered mesons behave like $\ccbar$ charmonium states in that they preferentially decay into final states that contain a $c$- and a $\bar{c}$-quark, but do not fit expectations for any of the unfilled levels of the…
A SU(4) flavor symmetrical Lagrangian is constructed for the interaction of the pseudo-scalar mesons with the vector mesons. SU(4) symmetry is broken to SU(3) by suppression of terms in the Lagrangian where the interaction should be driven…
Effective field theories provide a model independent parametrization of the physics beyond the SM if the new degrees of freedom are heavy and complement thus the searches for resonances. In this talk, I will apply this method to the top…
In the present paper, we continue our study the structure of hadronic spectra, started in Refs. \cite{1,2,3,4,5}, from the view point of existence the extra dimensions in the spirit of Kaluza-Klein approach. We show that all charmed and…

I review the recent $B$-factory measurements of new states which, in some cases, exhibit Charmonium-like properties, and in other cases suggest the existence of a new spectroscopy. Several theoretical interpretations of the new states have…
