Lett. 91, 262001 (2003) has been confirmed by CDF II, D0, BaBar m, not compatible with charmonium state m peaks near upper kinematic limit as expected for but : charmonium decaying to J/ violates isospin suppressed

Beauty 2005 Assisi Spectroscopy and new Particles F. Mandl Theoretical Explanation for X(3872) What could it be? M x = (3871.9 ± 0.5) MeV is within error equal to the threshold (3871.3 ± 1) MeV Speculation: X might be a molecule - like bound state Tornquist: J PC = 0 -+, 1 ++ C = +1 J via 0 J/ intermediate state m concentrated at high masses Swanson: dynamical model for X as a hadronic resonance J PC = 1 ++ strongly favoured + appreciable admixture of J/ + small J/ Decay X(3872) J/ observation would unambiguously establish C = 1 for X
