From the lineshape of the to its structure

Angelo Esposito, Luciano Maiani, Alessandro Pilloni +2

From a study of the lineshape of the , the LHCb collaboration measures a sizeable negative effective range. This cannot be reconciled with a shallow bound sta…

The new resonances Z_{cs}(3985) and Z_{cs}(4003) (almost) fill two tetraquark nonets of broken SU(3)_f

Luciano Maiani, Antonio D. Polosa, Veronica Riquer

New data from BESIII and LHCb show the existence of resonances with strangeness filling multiplets of the broken SU(3)_f symmetry, with the pattern predicted by the quark model. Th…

Radiative and meson decays of in flavor SU(3)

Luciano Maiani, Antonio D. Polosa, Verónica Riquer

The charmonium-like exotic states and the less known , produced in collisions, are sources of positive parity exotic hadrons in association with photons…

The X(3872) tetraquarks in B and B_s decays

Luciano Maiani, Antonio D. Polosa, Veronica Riquer

We discuss how the latest data on X(3872) in B and B_s decays speak about its tetraquark nature. The established decay pattern, including the up to date observations by CMS, are ex…
