The discovery of hadronic states beyond the conventional two-quark meson and three-quark baryon picture in the last two decades is one of the most amazing accomplishments in fundamental physics research. We review the experimental progress…
Heavy flavour baryons containing one or two charm quarks with light flavour combinations are studied using the hyper central description of the three-body system. The confinement potential is assumed as hyper central coulomb plus power…
High-precision $e^+e^-\to c\bar{c}$ data (20 final states) from the BESIII and Belle in $\sqrt{s}=3.75-4.7$ GeV are analyzed with a semi three-body unitary coupled-channel model. Vector charmonium poles are extracted from the amplitudes…
The bottomonium spectrum is the perfect testing ground for the confining potential and unitarisation effects. The bottom quark is about three times heavier than the charm quark, so that $b\bar{b}$ systems probe primarily the short-range…
We consider the recently suggested model for some resonances near the open charm threshold as bound states of charmonium inside excited light mesons. It is argued in the soft-wall holographic model of QCD that such states of heavy…
New results from charm experiments have led to renewed interest in this physics. The charm sector is now seen as a powerful tool to search for new physics and to advance our understanding of the standard model. We owe much of this progress…
Charmonium spectroscopy gained renewed interest after the discovery in 2003 of the unpredicted X(3872) charmonium-like state, above the $D\overline{D}$ threshold. To date many charmonium-like states above the $D\overline{D}$ threshold have…
We study the charmonium spectrum including higher spin and exotic states. We use the Sheikholeslami-Wilson (clover) action for $N_f=2$ sea quarks as well as for the charm valence quark. In order to access excited states we apply a…
We study charmonium properties at non-zero temperature in the temperature range 153 MeV $<T<$ 305 MeV using lattice QCD. We use HISQ action for dynamical quarks and Wilson clover action for valence charm quarks and calculate the correlation…
A surprising number of new c c-bar mesons with masses above the D D-bar threshold have been discovered at the B factories. Some of them are ordinary charmonium states, but others are definitely exotic mesons. The current theoretical status…
We have studied the meson-baryon $S-$wave interaction, using coupled channels, in the isoscalar hidden-charm strange sector and $J^P = 1/2^-,3/2^-$ and $5/2^-$. We impose constraints of heavy quark spin symmetry in the interaction and…
Changes in properties of heavy hadrons with a charm or a bottom quark are studied in nuclear matter. Effective masses (scalar potentials) for the hadrons are calculated using quark-meson coupling model. Our results also suggest that the…
In this mini-review we report on the most recent progress in charm meson spectroscopy. We discuss the precision measurements performed by the BaBar and CLEO-c experiments in the non strange charm meson part and we present the newly…
We present a calculation of the spectrum of low-lying D and D_s mesons calculated on 2+1 flavor configurations with Clover-Wilson quarks generated by the PACS-CS collaboration. S- and P-wave states are explored for pion masses down to…
We investigate four-body states with only charm quarks. Working in a large but finite oscillator basis, we present a net binding analysis to determine if the resulting states are stable against breakup into a pair of c-cbar mesons. We find…
In this talk I would like to discuss two aspects of charm physics. One is to show that many standard model predictions for rare decay modes (along with $D^0 -\bar{D}^0$ mixing and CP violation) are extremely small thus opening a window for…
The mass spectra of all-charm tetraquark states with the [cc][$\bar{c}\bar{c}$] quark configuration are investigated. The coulomb plus linear potential is used in conjunction with the relativistic mass correction term…
In this short review we present and discuss all the experimental information about the charged exotic charmonium states, which have been observed over the last five years. We try to understand their properties such as masses and decay…
In this work, the charm quark mass is obtained from a QCD sum rule analysis of the charmonium system. In our investigation we include results from non-relativistic QCD at next-to-next-to-leading order. Using the pole mass scheme, we obtain…
Inspired by the recent observations of the vector charmonium-like states at BES III Collaboration and $\psi(3842)$ at LHCb Collaboration, we comb the $D$ wave charmonium state in the present work. We first evaluate the possibility of…
