A Unified Study of Hidden-Charm and Hidden-Bottom Mesons

Vikas Patel, Chetan Lodha, A. K. Rai

We present a unified phenomenological analysis of hidden-charm and hidden-bottom mesons, treating the \(c\bar c\) and \(b\bar b\) sectors within a common screened-potential and QCD…

A unified study of the \(B_c\) meson: from spectrum and form factors to weak and radiative decays

Vikas Patel, Chetan Lodha, Raghav Chaturvedi +1

The meson constitutes a unique system for investigating heavy-hadron dynamics, since it exhibits quarkonium-like bound-state structure while decaying predominantly through we…

Compact Tetraquarks in the Charm--Strange Sector: Mass Spectra, Rearrangement Decays and Regge Trajectories with Threshold Inputs

Chetan Lodha, Ajay Kumar Rai

This work presents a spectroscopy-focused study of the compact open-charm, multi-strange tetraquark configuration \(cs\bar{s}\bar{s}\), modeled as an axial diquark-antidiquark syst…
