The X(3872) seems to be a weakly-bound hadronic molecule whose constituents are two charm mesons. Its binding energy is much smaller than all the other energy scales in QCD. This separation of scales can be exploited through factorization…
If the X(3872) is a loosely-bound molecule of the charm mesons D^0 \bar D^{*0} and D^{*0} \bar D^0, it can decay through the decay of a constituent in a hadronic channel with a nearby threshold, such as J/\psi \omega or J/\psi \rho. The…
If the $X(3872)$ is a weakly bound charm-meson molecule, it can be produced by the creation of $D^{*0} \bar{D}^0$ or $D^{0} \bar{D}^{*0}$ at short distances followed by the formation of the bound state from the charm-meson pairs. It can…
If the recently-discovered charmonium-like state X(3872) is a loosely-bound S-wave molecule of the charm mesons D^0 \bar D^{*0} or D^{*0} \bar D^0, it can be produced through the weak decay of the B meson into D^0 \bar D^{*0} K or D^{*0}…
If the quantum numbers of the X(3872) are J^{PC}=1^{++}, the measurement of its mass implies that it is either a loosely-bound hadronic molecule whose constituents are a superposition of the charm mesons pairs D^{*0} Dbar^0 and D^0…
In this work the production of the state $X(3872)$ is estimated via the reaction $B^0 \to K^{\ast 0} X(3872)$ through triangle mechanisms described by the sequence $B^0 \to D_s^{(*)+} (\to K^{\ast 0} D^{(*)+} ) \ D^{(*)-} \to K^{\ast 0} \ (…
It is pointed out that the internal structure of the narrow resonance X(3872) at the D^0 {\bar D}^{*0} threshold can be studied in some detail by measuring the rate and the spectra in the decays X(3872) \to D^0 {\bar D}^0 \pi^0 and X(3872)…
If the X(3872) is a loosely-bound D^{*0} Dbar^0 / D^0 Dbar^{*0} molecule, its inclusive production rate can be described by the NRQCD factorization formalism that applies to inclusive quarkonium production. We argue that if the molecule has…
It has been suggested that the radiative $X \to D \bar D \gamma$ decay modes are useful to shed light on the structure of the meson X(3872), since the ratio $ R={\Gamma(X \to D^+ D^- \gamma) \over \Gamma(X \to D^0 \bar D^0 \gamma)}$ is…
The calculation of the decay $X(3872)\to D^0 \bar{D}^0 \pi^0$ in effective field theory is revisited to include final state $\pi^0 D^0$, $\pi^0 \bar{D}^0$and $D^0\bar{D}^0$ rescattering diagrams. These introduce significant uncertainty into…
Both the mass (just below the D^{*0}Dbar^0 threshold) and the likely quantum numbers (J^{PC}=1^{++}) of the X(3872) suggest that it is either a weakly-bound hadronic ``molecule'' or a virtual state of charmed mesons. Assuming the X(3872) is…
If the X(3872) resonance is a shallow boundstate of a the charm mesons $D^{0} \bar D^{*0}$ and $D^{*0} \bar D^{0}$, it can be described by an effective theory of nonrelativistic D mesons coupled to nonrelativistic pions (X-EFT). In this…
Starting from the hypothesis that the X(3872) is a $D\bar D^*$ molecule, we discuss the radiative decays of the X(3872) into $\gamma J/\psi$ and $\gamma\psi'$ from an effective field theory point of view. We show that radiative decays are…
We construct line shapes for the X(3872) that generalize the Flatte and zero-range line shapes that have been considered previously. These line shapes are associated with scattering amplitudes that are exactly unitary for real values of the…
We study the X(3872)-->D^0 \bar D^0 \pi^0 decay within a D \bar D^* molecular picture for the X(3872) state. This decay mode is more sensitive to the long-distance structure of the X(3872) resonance than its J/\psi\pi\pi and J/\psi3\pi…
We investigate the decays of $B^0 \to K^0 X(3872)$ and $B^+ \to K^+ X(3872)$ based on the picture where the $X(3872)$ resonance is strongly coupled to the $D\bar{D}^* + c.c.$ channel. In addition to the decay mechanism where the $X(3872)$…
We generalize results of lattice QCD to determine the spin-dependent symmetries and factorization properties of meson production in OZI allowed processes. This explains some conjectures previously made in the literature about axial meson…
The quantum numbers J^PC = 1++ of the X(3872) and the proximity of its mass to the D*0 anti-D0 threshold imply that it is either a loosely-bound hadronic molecule whose constituents are a superposition of D*0 anti-D0 and D0 anti-D*0 or it…
The X(3872) resonance is considered as a hadronic molecule, a loosely-bound state of charmed D0 and D*0 mesons, since its mass is very close to the D*0 barD0 threshold. Assuming structure and quantum numbers of X(3872) as (D0 barD*0 - D*0…
In this proceedings I review the soft-collinear effective theory (SCET), an effective theory for energetic particles. I also discuss factorization in exclusive and inclusive B-> D^(*)X decays, and tests which can help distinguish whether…
