The observation of a narrow structure near the J/psi phi threshold in exclusive B+ to J/psi phi K+ decays produced in p-pbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV is reported. A signal of 19 +- 6(stat) +- 3(syst) events, with statistical…
We explore properties of the doubly charged vector tetraquark $Z_{\mathrm{V} }^{++}=[cu][\overline{s}\overline{d}]$ built of four quarks of different flavors using the QCD sum rule methods. The mass and current coupling of $Z_{…
The cross sections of e+e- to pi+pi-h_c at center-of-mass energies from 3.90 to 4.42 GeV were measured by the BESIII and the CLEO-c experiments. Resonant structures are evident in the e+e- to pi+pi-h_c line shape, the fit to the line shape…
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…
We consider the spectroscopy of heavy-quark light-quark mesons with a simple model based on the non-relativistic reduction of vector and scalar exchange between fermions. Four forces are induced: the spin-orbit forces on the light and heavy…
Peculiarities of obtaining parameters for broad multi-channel resonances from data are discussed analyzing the experimental data on processes $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi,K\bar{K}$ in the $I^GJ^{PC}=0^+0^{++}$ channel in a model-independent approach…
Based on the observation that K_0(1430) is lighter than its SU_3 counterpart, a_0(1450), we examine the possibility that these particles, together with f_0(1370), f_0(1500) and f_0(1710), fill a tetraquark recurrence of the sub-GeV 0^{++}…
We review the measurements of the top quark mass by the CDF and D-Zero collaborations using Run I data in excess of 100 inverse picobarns. The D-Zero collaboration has recently updated its measurement of the top quark mass in the lepton +…
We consider the $\Theta^+(1540)$ pentaquark in the string model that correctly reproduces the linear Regge trajectories for the case of orbital excitations of light $q\bar q$ mesons and $qqq$ baryons. Assuming (and arguing in favour of) the…
In the context of the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics, the relationship between the top-quark mass and width ($\Gamma_t$) has been precisely calculated. However, the uncertainty from current direct measurements of the width is…
In view of the renewing experimental interest for searching strangeness $+1$ baryons at J-PARC, we study the existence of light baryon resonances with strangeness +1 generated in the $K$-$(N^*/\Delta^*)$ system, where $N^*$ represents…

We consider the effect of exotic S=+1 resonances Theta+ and Theta++ on K+p elastic scattering data (total cross section) and the process K0_Lp-->K0_Sp. Data near the observed Theta+(1540) are examined for evidence of additional states. The…
The recently discovered resonance at $125.5\, GeV$ in invariant mass distribution of $\gamma\, \gamma$ and of $l^+\,l^+\,l^-\,l^-$ may be tentatively interpreted as a scalar bound state $X$ consisting of two $W$. In the present note we…
Understanding the nature of the hidden charm pentaquark(like) signals in the LHCb data for $\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi p K^-$ is a central problem of hadron spectroscopy. We propose a scenario completely different from previous ones such as…

Recent results from the experimental collaborations at LHC give hints of a resonance in the diphoton channel at an invariant mass of 750 GeV. We show that such a scalar resonance would be possible in an $U(1)$ extension of the SM where the…
