We investigate the Y(4260) resonance recently discovered by the Babar collaboration. We propose the observation of its decay into J/psi pi pi and its non observation into open charm as a consequence of it being a charmonium hybrid state with a magnetic constituent gluon. We prove a selection rule forbidding its decay into two S-wave charmed mesons in any potential model. We suggest a generalisation of the selection rule based only on the heavy quark nature of the charm.

  1. All-charm tetraquarks at hadron colliders: A high-precision fragmentation perspective

    hep-ph 2026-04 accept novelty 5.5

    TQ4Q2.0 supplies the first complete, uncertainty-quantified set of NRQCD-based fragmentation functions for all-heavy tetraquarks, including nonconstituent channels and public grids for jet-associated production.

  2. Vector charmonium(-like) states in the energy range of 4.1-4.6 GeV

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A coupled-channel framework is developed and fitted to BESIII data on vector charmonium-like states in the 4.1-4.6 GeV range, concluding that coupled-channel effects with dynamically generated poles explain the line shapes.

  3. All-charm tetraquarks at hadron colliders: A high-precision fragmentation perspective

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    The authors construct and publicly release the TQ4Q2.0 fragmentation functions for all-heavy S-wave tetraquarks via NRQCD factorization, extending prior work with nonconstituent contributions and replica-based uncertainties.
