Heavy-light diquarks can be the building blocks of a rich spectrum of states which can accommodate some of the newly observed charmonium-like resonances not fitting a pure c-cbar assignment. We examine this possibility for hidden and open charm diquark-antidiquark states deducing spectra from constituent quark masses and spin-spin interactions. Taking the X(3872) as input we predict the existence of a 2++ state that can be associated to the X(3940) observed by Belle and re-examine the state claimed by SELEX, X(2632). The possible assignment of the previously discovered states D_s(2317) and D_s(2457) is discussed. We predict X(3872) to be made of two components with a mass difference related to (m_u-m_d) and discuss the production of X(3872) and of its charged partner X^(+-) in the weak decays of B^(+,0).

  1. Observation of a new excited charm-strange meson $D_{s1}(2933)^+$ in $B^0\to D^+ D^- K^+ \pi^-$ decays

    hep-ex 2026-04 accept novelty 8.0

    A new charm-strange resonance D_s1(2933)^+ with J^P=1^+ is observed at >10 sigma in B^0 to D+ D- K+ pi- decays, with measured mass 2933 MeV and width 72 MeV.

  2. Analysis of the $D_0^*(2300)$ resonance from lattice QCD under chiral symmetry

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Chiral symmetry corrections in lattice QCD fits shift the D0*(2300) resonance pole closer to the Dπ threshold and reduce its width, while coupled channels produce a two-pole structure.

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    An auxiliary-field effective theory yields a lineshape parametrization for molecular X(3872) that consistently describes deuteron scattering data and differs from the Flatté form used for compact interpretations.

  6. Short-range production of three bottom mesons

    Leading-order predictions for three-body point production rates of B and B* meson systems are derived in short-range NREFT from two-body input alone.

  7. Effects of Final State Interactions on Landau Singularities
