We report the first determination of the absolute branching fractions of the X(3872) decays by globally analyzing the measurements provided by the Belle, BaBar, BESIII, and LHCb experiments. The branching fractions of X(3872) to pi^+pi^- J/psi and D*0D0bar+c.c. are found to be (4.1^{+1.9}_{-1.1})% and (52.4^{+25.3}_{-14.3})%, respectively. The branching fractions of the decays X(3872) to gamma J/psi, gamma psi', omega J/psi, and pi^0 chi_{c1} are also determined. The global fit implies that the fraction of X(3872) decays which are not observed in experiments is (31.9_{-31.5}^{+18.1})%, which indicates that there is still a lot of room for searching for new decay modes of the X(3872). With the branching fraction, we determine the production cross section of e+e- to gamma X(3872) at center-of-mass energy 4.226 GeV.

  1. Branching Fractions of the $X(3872)$

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    If the X(3872) is a weakly bound charm-meson molecule, its J/psi pi+ pi- branching fraction lies between roughly 4% and 33%, and is likely several times larger than the measured resonance-feature fraction.

  2. Production of exotic hadrons in $pp$ and nuclear collisions

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 1.0 of 10

    A review of exotic-hadron production in pp, pbar-p, and nuclear collisions, arguing that such measurements can discriminate between hadronic-molecule and compact-tetraquark interpretations of states like the X(3872).
