We perform a systematic study of the possible molecular states composed of a pair of heavy mesons such as DD, D * D , D * D * in the framework of the meson exchange model. The exchanged mesons include the pseudoscalar, scalar and vector mesons. Through our investigation, we find that (1) the structure X(3764) is not a molecular state; (2) There exists strong attraction in the range r < 1 fm for the D * D * system with J = 0, 1. If future experiments confirm Z + (4051) as a loosely bound molecular state, its quantum number is probably J P = 0 + . Its partner state Φ * * 0 may be searched for in the π 0 χc1 channel; (3) The vector meson exchange provides strong attraction in the D * D channel together with the pion exchange. A bound state solution exists with a reasonable cutoff parameter Λ ∼ 1.4 GeV. X(3872) may be accommodated as a molecular state dynamically although drawing a very definite conclusion needs further investigation; (4) The B * B molecular state exists.
In the framework of the one-boson-exchange model, we have studied the interaction of the B Ã " B and B Ã " B Ã systems. After considering the S-wave and D-wave mixing, we notice that both Z b ð10610Þ AE and Z b ð10650Þ AE can be interpreted as the B Ã " B and B Ã " B Ã molecular states quite naturally. The long-range onepion-exchange force alone is strong enough to form these loosely bound molecular states, which ensures the numerical results are quite model independent and robust.
The analysis of the mass spectrum and the calculation of the strong decay of P-wave charmonium states strongly purport to explain the newly observed X(3915) and X(4350) as new members in the P-wave charmonium family, i.e., chi{c0}{'} for X(3915) and chi{c2}{''} for X(4350). Under the P-wave charmonium assignment to X(3915) and X(4350), the J{PC} quantum numbers of X(3915) and X(4350) must be 0{++} and 2{++} respectively, which provide important criteria to test the P-wave charmonium explanation for X(3915) and X(4350) proposed by this Letter. The decay behavior of the remaining two P-wave charmonium states with the second radial excitation is predicted, and an experimental search for them is suggested.
We perform a systematic study of the possible loosely bound states composed of two charmed baryons or a charmed baryon and an anti-charmed baryon within the framework of the one boson exchange (OBE) model. We consider not only the π exchange but also the η, ρ, ω, φ and σ exchanges. The S − D mixing effects for the spin-triplets are also taken into account. With the derived effective potentials, we calculate the binding energies and root-mean-square (RMS) radii for the systems ΛcΛc(Λc), ΞcΞc(Ξc), ΣcΣc(Σc), Ξ
In the framework of the one-boson-exchange model, we have performed an extensive study of the possible B*B̄, B*B̄*, D*D̄, D*D̄* molecular states with various quantum numbers after considering the S-wave and D-wave mixing. We also discuss the possible experimental research of these interesting states.
