scattering in the JPC = 0++ and 2++ channels. The scattering matrix for partial waves l = 0, 2 and isospin zero is determined using multiple volumes and inertial frames via Lüscher’s formalism. Lattice QCD ensembles from the CLS consortium with mπ ≃ 280 MeV, a ≃ 0.09 fm and L/a = 24, 32 are utilized. The resulting scattering matrix suggests the existence of three charmonium-like states with JPC = 0++ in the energy region ranging from slightly below 2mD up to 4.13 GeV. We find a so far unobserved $$ D\overline{D} $$

. The partial wave l = 2 features a resonance likely related to χc2(3930). We work with several assumptions, such as the omission of J/ψω, ηcη and three-particle channels. Only statistical uncertainties are quantified, while the extrapolations to the physical quark-masses and the continuum limit are challenges for the future.
