Analysis of the $ \boldsymbol{\gamma\gamma \to D\bar D}$ reaction and the $D\bar{D}$ bound state

In this work, we investigate the reaction of $\gamma\gamma \to D\bar{D}$, taking into account the s-wave $D\bar{D}$ final state interaction. By fitting to the $D\bar{D}$ invariant mass distributions measured by the Belle and BaBar Collaborations, we obtain a good reproduction of the data by means of a $D\bar{D}$ amplitude that produces a bound $D\bar{D}$ state with $I=0$ close to threshold. The error bands of the fits indicate, however, that more precise data on this reaction are needed to be more assertive about the position and width of such state.
