abstract
It is proposed that the newly discovered X(3872) is a $J^{PC} = 1^{++}$ $D^0\bar D^{0*}$ hadronic resonance stabilized by admixtures of $\omega J/\psi$ and $\rho J/\psi$. A specific model of the state is constructed and tests of its internal structure are suggested via the predicted decay modes $D^0\bar D^0\pi^0$, $D^0\bar D^0\gamma$, $\pi^+\pi^- J/\psi$, and $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0 J/\psi$.

Using nonrelativistic effective field theory, the X(3872) is treated as a D*D molecule to predict radiative decay widths to D D gamma, finding a strong neutral-over-charged hierarchy and quantifying D D rescattering effects.
Heavy-quark large-mass limit applied to E1 transitions of χ_c1(2P) yields decay rates that match LHCb measurements for χ_c1(3872) under the 2P assignment.
Fits using coupled channels and bare states show the psi(4660) as a conventional charmonium state above the Lambda_c pair threshold in both Belle and BESIII datasets.
Radiative decays of hadronic molecules require careful treatment of scale hierarchies to resolve interpretive confusions, as demonstrated by reviewing decay types and instructive examples.
