Among the newly observed structures in the heavy quarkonium mass region, some are proposed to be hadronic molecules. We investigate the consequences of heavy quark flavor symmetry on these heavy meson hadronic molecules. The symmetry allows…
Heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory (HHchiPT) and XEFT are applied to the decays X(3872) -> psi(2S) + gamma and psi(4040) -> X(3872) + gamma under the assumption that the X(3872) is a molecular bound state of neutral charm mesons. In…
We perform a lattice study of charmonium-like mesons with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ and three quark contents $\bar cc \bar du$, $\bar cc(\bar uu+\bar dd)$ and $\bar cc \bar ss$, where the later two can mix with $\bar cc$. This simulation with $N_f=2$…
We argue why the recently observed $T_{cc}$ could either be a compact multiquark configuration or a loosely bound molecular configuration composed of charmed mesons, whereas the $X(3872)$ is most likely a molecular configuration. The…
In this work, we have calculated the mass spectra and decay properties of dimesonic states in the variational scheme. The inter-mesonic interaction considered as the Hellmann potential and One Pion Exchange potential. The mass spectra of…
It was recently proposed that the $X(3872)$ binding energy, the difference between the $D^0\bar D^{*0}$ threshold and the $X(3872)$ mass, can be precisely determined by measuring the $\gamma X(3872)$ line shape from a short-distance…
I discuss low energy aspects of heavy meson decays, where there is at least one heavy meson in the final state. Examples are $B -\bar{B}$ mixing, $B \to D \bar{D}$, $B \to D \eta'$, and $B \to D \gamma$. %and $B \to D W $ (Isgur-Wise…
We use a QCD relativistic potential model to compute the strong coupling constant $g$ appearing in the effective Lagrangian which describes the interaction of $0^-$ and $1^-$ $\bar q Q$ states with soft pions in the limit $m_Q \to \infty$.…
We consider the $X(3872)$ resonance as a $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ $D\bar D^*$ hadronic molecule. According to heavy quark spin symmetry, there will exist a partner with quantum numbers $2^{++}$, $X_{2}$, which would be a $D^*\bar D^*$ loosely bound…
We construct a realistic field-theoretic model for the structure of a heavy meson in the heavy quark limit. The model is fully covariant and satisfies heavy quark symmetry. The Isgur-Wise function, the decay constant, and the axial vector…
The quantum numbers of the X(3872) meson are determined to be JPC = 1++ based on angular correlations in B+ to X(3872) K+ decays, where X(3872) to pi+pi- J/psi and J/psi to \mu+\mu-. The data correspond to 1.0 fb-1 of pp collisions…
We construct the effective chiral Lagrangian involving the D--mesons and Goldstone bosons at next-to-leading order taking into account strong as well as electromagnetic interactions. This allows us to disentangle -- to leading order in…
The near-threshold exotic hadrons such as $T_{cc}$ and $X(3872)$ are naively considered as the hadronic molecular state from the viewpoint of the low-energy universality. However, it is also known that the elementary dominant state is not…
In this work, we revisit the isospin violating decays of $X(3872)$ in a coupled-channel effective field theory. In the molecular scheme, the $X(3872)$ is interpreted as the bound state of $\bar{D}^{*0}D^0/\bar{D}^0D^{*0}$ and…
The P-wave charm-strange mesons $D_{s0}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ lie below the $DK$ and $D^\ast K$ threshold respectively. They are extremely narrow because their strong decays violate the isospin symmetry. We study the possible heavy…
If known, the spectrum of heavy-hadron molecules will be a key tool to disentangle the nature of the exotic states that are being discovered in experiments. Here we argue that the general features of the molecular spectrum can be deduced…
I review heavy quarkonium physics in view of recent experimental results. In particular, I discuss new results on spin singlet states, photon and hadronic transitions, D-states and discovery of yet unexplained narrow X(3872) state.
We derive the mass correction lagrangian of the heavy meson effective theory by using the projection operator method. The next leading order of the mass correction and the first order of the chiral expansion are given explicitely.We also…
During the last decades, numerous exotic states which cannot be explained by the conventional quark model have been observed in experiment. Some of them can be understood as two-body hadronic molecules, such as the famous $X(3872)$,…
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…
