We discuss the possibility that the X(3872) can be a hadronic DD* bound state in the framework of a potential model. The potential is generated by the exchange of pseudoscalar, scalar and vector mesons resulting from the Lagrangian of heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory. The hadronic bound state configuration contains charged and neutral DD* components, while orbital S- and D-waves are included. Isospin symmetry breaking effects are fully taken into account. We show that binding in the DD* system with J(PC)=1(++) already exists for a reasonable value of the meson-exchange regularization parameter of Lambda around 1.2 GeV. We also explore the possibility of hadronic BB* bound states and show that binding can be achieved in the isoscalar limit for J(PC)=1(++) or 1(+-).

  1. Dispersive Analysis of $D$- and $B$-Meson Form Factors with Chiral and Heavy-Quark Constraints

    hep-ph 2026-03 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The isovector D/D*/B/B* electromagnetic form factors are reconstructed dispersively with ππ rescattering, yielding ρ(770) coupling constants from pole residues.

  2. A short review on the compositeness of the $X(3872)$

    hep-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Radiative decays and the LHCb line-shape data are incompatible with a purely molecular X(3872) and favor a compact or partially composite state, with a proposed molecular-amplitude fit for a decisive test.

  3. Radiative decays of $X(3872)$ within $D{\bar D}^*$ molecular framework

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    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.

  4. Unquenched Charmonium and Beyond

    hep-ph 2026-02 conditional novelty 2.0 of 10

    This Lanzhou-group review argues that coupled-channel (unquenched) effects, not exotic constituents, are the common thread explaining charmonium anomalies from the rho-pi puzzle to the Y-problem states.
