In order to explore the spectrum of hidden-charm scalar and tensor resonances, we study meson-meson scattering with $J^{PC}=0^{++}, 2^{++}$ in the charmonium energy region using lattice QCD. Employing a light-quark mass corresponding to…
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…
We propose a modification of the mechanism of charmed quarks fragmentation into $D$ mesons in hadronic collisions. It is shown that the distinction in valence quark distributions in the initial $\pi^{\pm}$ and $K^{\pm}$ mesons leads to…
We study the scattering of light pseudoscalar mesons ($\pi$, $K$) off charmed mesons ($D$, $D_s$) in full lattice QCD. The S-wave scattering lengths are calculated using L\"uscher's finite volume technique. We use a relativistic formulation…
In a molecular scenario, we investigate the isospin-breaking hidden charm decay processes of $X(3872)$, i.e., $X(3872) \to \pi^+ \pi^- J/\psi$, $X(3872) \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0 J/\psi$, and $X(3872)\to \pi^0\chi_{cJ}$. We assume that the…
In this article, we assign the higher charmed mesons $D^*_1(2680)$, $D_3^*(2760)$ and $D_2^*(3000)$ to be the 2S $1^-$, 1D $3^-$ and 1F $2^+$ states, respectively, and study the two-body strong decays to the ground state charmed mesons and…
We report on the observation of the charm mesons D^\ast \pm, D^\pm and D_s ^\pm with 1.4 nb^-1 of data, and of the J/psi-->mu+mu- resonance with 78 nb-1 of data from the ATLAS detector in 7 TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC. The…
Analyses of the J/{\psi} {\pi}+ {\pi}- decay channel of the X(3872) resonance by the CDF, Belle, and LHCb collaborations have established its J^{PC} quantum numbers as 1^{++}. An analysis of the \pi+ \pi- \pi 0 invariant mass distribution…
Possible $2S$ and $1D$ excited $D$ and $D_s$ states are studied, the charmed states $D(2550)^0$, $D^\ast(2600)$, $D(2750)^0$ and $D^\ast(2760)$ newly observed by the BaBar Collaboration are analyzed. The masses of these states are explored…
We present RBC heavy-light meson spectroscopy with quenched DBW2 gauge configurations at lattice cutoff of about 3 GeV. Both heavy and light quarks are described by domain-wall fermions (DWF). The heavy quark mass ranges between 0.1 and 0.4…
Recently a lot of new experimental results on open charm hadrons have appeared. In particular many D meson resonances have been discovered. We discuss strong decays of positive and negative parity charmed mesons within heavy meson chiral…
We present recent results on scalar light mesons based on Dalitz plot analyses of charm decays from Fermilab experiment E791. Low mass scalar mesons are found to have large contributions to the decays studied, D^+\to K^-\pi^+\pi^+ and D^+,…
The evidence for the existence of mesons with exotic quantum numbers and of hybrid candidates with non-exotic quantum numbers is critically reviewed, including candidates with hidden charm. Aims and methods of future searches for hybrid…
New results on properties and decays of open charm and charmonium states are reviewed. The emphasis is on examples that illustrate the various aspects through which studies of charm physics impact the field.
The mass spectra of charm-strange mesons including ground, radial and orbital excitations have been calculated within a relativistic Dirac framework. The predicted masses of the ground state $1S$ and the first orbital excited state $1P$…
The interaction between various charmed mesons and charmed baryons are studied within the framework of the coupled channel unitary approach with the local hidden gauge formalism. Several meson-baryon dynamically generated narrow $N^*$ and…
We explore the influence of open-charm channels on charmonium properties, and profile the 1:3D2, 1:3D3 and 2:1P1 charmonium candidates for X(3872). The favored candidates, the 1:3D2 and 1:3D3 levels, both have prominent radiative decays.…
Inspired by the recent discovery of the pentaquark states $P_c(4450)$ and $P_c(4380)$, which can be viewed as excited nucleon states with hidden charm, we study the three-body interaction of a kaon and a pair of $D\bar{D}^*$ in isospin 0…
We modify the mesonic wavefunction by using a short distance scale r0 in analogy with Hydrogen atom and estimate the values of masses and decay constants of the open flavour charm mesons D, Ds and Bc within the framework of a QCD Potential…
The 4-quark interpretation of the recently discovered X(3872) and Y(4260) resonances is briefly discussed.
