In this work, we use the $C^3P_{\,0}$ model to calculate the decay widths of the low lying charmonium $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ states, nominally $J/\psi(1S)$ and $\psi(2S)$, in the following common channels: $\rho\,\pi$, $\omega\,\eta$,…
We investigate the theoretical uncertainties of $P$-wave charmonium decays into two pions, $\chi_{\c J}\rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-$, $\pi^0\pi^0$. Constraining the pion distribution-amplitude from the recent precise data on $F_{\pi\gamma}(Q^2)$,…

Caution is suggested on the comparison of the spin-singlet charmonium P-state with the centre of gravity of triplet states, when the mass splitting is of the order of a few MeV. The physics of new hidden-charm states X and Y is briefly…
The recent progress in experiments at B-factories suggests an opportunity to search for missing charmonium states $\eta_{c}'(2^1S_0)$ and $h_c(1^1P_1)$. The feasibility of such a search in B-meson decays are discussed.
At CLEO, charmonium spectroscopy is pursued both thorugh e+e- annihilation data taken in the Upsilon region and more recently at psi(2S). A nmber of first observations (eta_c', h_c, pi and K form factors) have been made, and numerous high…
For charmonium's decaying to the final states involving merely light quarks, in light of SU(3) flavor symmetry, a systematic parametrization scheme is established, which involving binary decays, ternary decays and radiative decays.

We study $\eta_{\rm c}$- and $J/\psi$-isoscalar meson bound states in the hadro-charmonium picture. In the hadro-charmonium, the four $q\bar q c \bar c$ quarks are arranged in terms of a compact charm-anticharm pair, $c \bar c$, embedded in…
Mass spectrum of charmonium is computed in the framework of potential non-relativistic quantum chromodynamics. \textit{O}$(1/m)$ and \textit{O}$(1/m^2)$ relativistic corrections to the Cornell potential and spin-dependent potential have…

This review briefly outlines recent experimental results from the charmonium system. These include new measurements of the M1 radiative transition rates $B(\psi(1S,2S)\to\gamma\eta_c(1S))$; new insights into the mass of the $\eta_c(1S)$;…
Using data acquired with the CLEO-c detector at the CESR e+e- collider, we measure branching fractions for J/psi, psi(2S), and psi(3770) decays to gamma pi0, gamma eta, and gamma eta'. Defining R_n = B[ psi(nS)-->gamma eta ]/B[…
We apply hard pion Chiral Perturbation Theory to charmonium decays to $\pi\pi$, $KK$ and $\eta\eta$. We first discuss why we expect to be able to provide results for the chiral logarithms in $\chi_{c0}$ and $\chi_{c2}$ decays to two…
In recent years, lots of studies of charmonium decays have been performed at BESIII based on large data samples of $J/\psi$, $\psi(3686)$ and $\psi(3770)$. Recent results in searches for radiative transitions of $\psi(3770)$ and rare…
We address the problem of observed charmonium decays which should be forbidden in perturbative QCD. We examine the model in which these decays proceed through a gluonic component of the $J/\Psi$ and the $\eta_c$, arising from a mixing of…
We systematically investigate the mass spectrum and two-body open-charm strong decays of charmonium states in a coupled-channel model where the $^3P_0$ quark-antiquark pair creation mechanism is employed. The results of masses, mass shifts,…
To illustrate the campaign to extend our knowledge of the charmonium spectrum, I focus on a puzzling new state, $X(3872) \to \pi^+\pi^- J/\psi$. Studying the influence of open-charm channels on charmonium properties leads us to propose a…
