We present a plausible mechanism for the origin of the $XYZ$ mesons in the heavy meson spectra within a standard quark-model picture. We discuss the conditions required for the existence of four--quark bound states or resonances…
Using an effective Lagrangian approach based on heavy quark symmetry and chiral dynamics, we explore the strong decay widths and branching ratios of various resonances and suggest their JP find the coupling constants involved in the strong…
Recently, the LHCb Collaboration have updated their analysis of the resonant $J/\psi p$ mass spectrum in the decay $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi p K^-$. In the combined Run~1 and Run~2 LHCb data, three peaks are observed, with the former…
Masses of the ground and excited (1P, 2S, 1D, 2P, 3S) states of the fully-heavy tetraquarks, composed of charm ($c$) and bottom ($b$) quarks and antiquarks, are calculated in the diquark-antidiquark picture within the relativistic quark…
It is pointed out that the previously suggested interpretation of the hidden-charm pentaquarks $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ as molecular bound states of $\Sigma_c \bar D$ and $\Sigma_c \bar D^*$ baryon-meson pairs gives rise to…
A brief overview of charm scalar resonances is given. It is demonstrated that experimental data on the D_s^{*+}gamma and D_s^+pi^0 decays of D_{s0}^+(2317) favor its assignment to the I_3=0 component of iso-triplet four-quark mesons. The…
A study of $D^+\pi^-$, $D^0 \pi^+$ and $D^{*+}\pi^-$ final states is performed using pp collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 $fb^{-1}$, collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV with the LHCb detector. The…
Identifying the zero-range exchange of vector mesons as the driving force for the s-wave scattering of pseudo-scalar mesons off the baryon ground states, the spectrum of ${3/2}^-$ molecules is computed. We predict a strongly bound 15-plet…
The experimental status of the recently observed resonances which could be interpreted as c$\bar q$ mesons with s$_l^P={1/2}^+$ is reviewed. In the framework of HQET and chiral perturbation theory, strong and radiative widths of these…
The spectrum of orbitally excited $D_s$ mesons is computed in the continuum limit of quenched lattice QCD. The results are consistent with the interpretation that the narrow resonance in the $D_s \pi^0$ channel discovered by the BABAR…
We assume that the two hidden charm pentaquark discovered at $LHCb$ are built by the three light quarks and the $c \bar{c}$ pair, both colour octets. in relative P-wave for the $\frac{5}{2}^+$ state and by the eigenvectors of the…
Masses of the lowest multiplets of c,b-mesons in S- and P-wave states with quantum numbers JPC: 0-+, 1--, 0++, 1+-, 1++, 2++ are obtained with the help of dispersion N/D method of heavy quark effective theory. The results are in a good…
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…
In this paper, as a continuation of our previous work, we systematically study the mass spectra and OZI-allowed strong decays of the higher $3S$-, $2P$-, $2D$-, and $1F$-wave charmed and charmed-strange mesons within a unified unquenched…
Inspired by the LHCb's discovery of hidden-charm pentaquarks, the anticharmed strange pentaquarks $P_{\bar c s}$ in a favor of the hadronic molecule picture are investigated from the one-boson-exchange model. Similar to the hidden-charm…
Hidden-charm pentaquark states with double strangeness, $P_{css}$, have been predicted within the framework of unitary coupled-channel dynamics. In this work, we theoretically investigate the potential to observe these states in the decays…

The interaction between pseudoscalar and/or vector mesons can be studied using hidden gauge Lagrangians. In this framework, the interaction between charmed mesons has been studied. Furthermore, doubly charmed states are also predicted.…
