We discuss how the latest data on X(3872) in B and B_s decays speak about its tetraquark nature. The established decay pattern, including the up to date observations by CMS, are explained by the mixing of two quasi-degenerate, unresolvable, neutral states. The same mechanism also explains isospin violations in X decays and strongly suggests that the lurking charged partners are required to have very small branching fractions in J/psi rho^pm, well below the current experimental limits. In addition, a new prediction on the decay into J/psi omega final states is attained. The newest experimental observations are found to give thrust to the simplest tetraquark picture and call for a definitive, in-depth study of final states with charged rho mesons.

We report the first observation of $B^0 to X(3872) (K^{+}pi^{-})$ and evidence for $B^+ to X(3872) (K^{0}pi^{+})$. We measure the product of branching fractions for the former to be ${cal B}(B^0 to X(3872) (K^+ pi^-)) times {cal B}(X(3872) to J/psi pi^+ pi^-) = (7.9 pm 1.3(mbox{stat.})pm 0.4(mbox{syst.})) times 10^{-6}$ and find that $B^{0}to X(3872) K^{*}(892)^{0}$ does not dominate the $B^{0}to X(3872)K^{+}pi^{-}$ decay mode. We also measure ${cal B}(B^+ to X(3872) (K^0 pi^+)) times {cal B}(X(3872) to J/psi pi^+ pi^-) = (10.6 pm 3.0(mbox{stat.}) pm 0.9(mbox{syst.})) times 10^{-6}$. This study is based on the full data sample of 711~fb$^{-1}$ ($772times 10^6 Bbar B$ pairs) collected at the $Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB collider.
We present results on the X(3872), produced in $B^+ to X(3872) K^+$ and $B^0 to X(3872) K^0_S$ decays where $X(3872) to J/psi pi^+ pi^-$. We report the first statistically significant observation of $B^0 to X(3872) K^0_S$ and measure the ratio of branching fractions to be $frac{{cal B}(B^0 to X(3872)K^0)} {{cal B}(B^+ to X(3872)K^+)} = 0.82 pm 0.22 pm 0.05$, consistent with unity. The mass difference between the X(3872) states produced in $B^+$ and $B^0$ decay is found to be $delta M equiv M_{XK^+} - M_{XK^0} = (+0.18 pm 0.89 pm 0.26)$ MeV/$c^2$, consistent with zero. In addition, we search for the X(3872) in the decay $B^0 to X(3872)K^+pi^-$, $X(3872) to J/psi pi^+ pi^-$. We measure ${cal B}(B^0 to X(3872) (K^+ pi^-)_{NR}) times {cal B}(X(3872) to J/psi pi^+ pi^-) = (8.1 pm 2.0 ^{+1.1}_{-1.4})times 10^{-6}$ and we set the 90% C.L. limit, ${cal B}(B^0 to X(3872)K^{*}(892)^0) times {cal B}(X(3872) to J/psi pi^+ pi^-) < 3.4 times 10^{-6}$. The analysis is based on a 605 fb$^{-1}$ data sample collected at the $Upsilon(4S)$ with the Belle detector at the KEKB collider.
We report a study of $Bto (J/psi gamma) K$ and $Bto (psi gamma)K$ decay modes using $772times 10^{6}$ $Bbar{B}$ events collected at the Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB energy-asymmetric $e^+ e^-$ collider. We observe $X(3872) to J/psi gamma$ and report the first evidence for $chi_{c2} to J/psi gamma$ in $Bto (X_{cbar{c}}gamma) K$ decays, while in a search for $X(3872) to psi gamma$ no significant signal is found. We measure the branching fractions, $mathcal{B}(B^{pm} to X(3872) K^{pm}) mathcal{B}(X(3872) to J/psigamma)$ $=$ $(1.78^{+0.48}_{-0.44}pm 0.12)times 10^{-6}$, $mathcal{B} (B^{pm} tochi_{c2} K^{pm})$$=$ $(1.11^{+0.36}_{-0.34} pm 0.09) times 10^{-5}$, $mathcal{B}(B^{pm} to X(3872) K^{pm}) mathcal{B}(X(3872) to psigamma)$ $<$ $3.45times 10^{-6}$ (upper limit at 90% C.L.) and also provide upper limits for other searches.
We discuss the possibilities of producing the X(3872), which is assumed to be a D bar D^* bound state, in radiative decays of charmonia. We argue that the ideal energy regions to observe the X(3872) associated with a photon in e^+e^- annihilations are around the Y(4260) mass and around 4.45 GeV, due to the presence of the S-wave D bar D_1(2420) and D^* bar D_1(2420) threshold, respectively. Especially, if the Y(4260) is dominantly a D bar D_1 molecule and the X(3872) a D bar D^* molecule, the radiative transition strength will be quite large.
In this work, we revisit the isospin violating decays of $X(3872)$ in a coupled-channel effective field theory. In the molecular scheme, the $X(3872)$ is interpreted as the bound state of $bar{D}^{*0}D^0/bar{D}^0D^{*0}$ and $D^{*-}D^+/D^-D^{*+}$ channels. In a cutoff-independent formalism, we relate the coupling constants of $X(3872)$ with the two channels to the molecular wave function. The isospin violating decays of $X(3872)$ are obtained by two equivalent approaches, which amend some deficiencies about this issue in literature. In the quantum field theory approach, the isospin violating decays arise from the coupling constants of $X(3872)$ to two di-meson channels. In the quantum mechanics approach, the isospin violating is attributed to wave functions at the origin. We illustrate that how to cure the insufficient results in literature. Within the comprehensive analysis, we bridge the isospin violating decays of $X(3872)$ to its inner structure. Our results show that the proportion of the neutral channel in $X(3872)$ is over $80%$. As a by-product, we calculate the strong decay width of $X(3872)to bar{D}^0 D^0pi^0$ and radiative one $X(3872)to bar{D}^0 D^0gamma$. The strong decay width and radiative decay width are about 30 keV and 10 keV, respectively, for the binding energy from $-300$ keV to $-50$ keV.
