Since the discovery of the J/ψ, the quark model was very successful in describing the spectrum and properties of heavy mesons including only q̄ components. However since 2003, with the discovery of the X(3872), many states that can not be accommodated on the naive quark model have been discovered, and they made unavoidable to include higher Fock components on the heavy meson states. We will give an overview of the success of the quark model for heavy mesons and point some of the states that are likely to be more complicated structures such as meson-meson molecules.

We discuss the extension of the superflavor symmetry of doubly heavy baryons to states which contain an excited heavy diquark and we examine some of the consequences of this symmetry for the spectra of doubly heavy baryons and heavy mesons. We explore the ramifications of a proposed symmetry that relates heavy diquarks to doubly heavy mesons. We present a method for determining how the excitation energy of a system containing two heavy quarks will scale as one changes the strength of the interactions and the reduced mass of the system. We use this to derive consequences of the heavy diquark-doubly heavy meson symmetry. We compare these consequences to the results of a quark model as well as the experimental data for doubly and singly heavy mesons. We also discuss the possibility of treating the strange quark as a heavy quark and apply the ideas developed here to strange hadrons.

Heavy hadron spectroscopy was well understood within the naive quark model until the end of the past century. However, in 2003, the X(3872) was discovered, with puzzling properties difficult to understand in the simple naive quark model picture. This state made clear that excited states of heavy mesons should be coupled to two-meson states in order to understand not only the masses but, in some cases, unexpected decay properties. In this work, we will give an overview of a way in which the naive quark model can be complemented with the coupling to two hadron thresholds. This program has been already applied to the heavy meson spectrum with the chiral quark model, and we show some examples where thresholds are of special relevance.

The covariant quark model with infrared confinement (CQM) is a well-suited theoretical framework to describe large variety of hadronic processes, including rare decays of heavy mesons. In this text we focus on the reactions [Formula: see text], which have been recently measured by Refs. 1–4. The measurements include also information about the angular distributions and their significance is given by possible New Physics (NP) effects which are predicted in numerous beyond Standard Model (SM) scenarios. Even with clever choice of experimental observables, a model dependence cannot be fully removed from the theoretical predictions. In this text we present the computation of the [Formula: see text] form factors within the CQM and give results for some of the most commonly used observables ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]).

Relativistic five-quark equations are found in the framework of the dispersion relation technique. The solutions of these equations using the method based on the extraction of the leading singularities of the amplitudes are obtained. The five-quark amplitudes for the low-lying pentaquarks are calculated under the condition that flavor SU(3) symmetry holds. The poles of the five-quark amplitudes determine the masses of the lowest pentaquarks. The mass spectra of pentaquarks which contain only light quarks are calculated. The calculation of pentaquark amplitudes estimates the contributions of three subamplitudes: molecular subamplitude BM, Mqqq subamplitude and [Formula: see text] subamplitude. The main contributions to the pentaquark amplitude are determined by the subamplitudes, which include the meson states M.

Some of the currently most popular conjectures for the structure of the recently discovered heavy mesons that do not find a place in the quark model quarkonium spectrum are sketched. Furthermore, some observables are identified that should allow one to identify the most prominent components of individual states.
