The masses of excited charmed mesons are shown to decrease by $sim (50-150)$~MeV due to a flattening of the confining potential at large distances, which effectively takes into account open decay channels. The scale of the mass shifts is similar to that in charmonium for $psi(4660)$ and $chi_{c0}(4700)$. The following masses of the first excitations: $M(2,{}^3P_0)=2874$~MeV, $M(2,{}^3P_2)=2968$~MeV, $M(2,{}^3D_1)=3175$~MeV, and $M(2,{}^3D_3)=3187$~MeV, and second excitations: $M(3,{}^1S_0)=3008$~MeV, $M(3,{}^3S_1)=3062$~MeV, $M(3,{}^3P_0)=3229$~MeV, and $M(3,{}^3P_2) =3264$~MeV, are predicted. The other states with $L=0,1,2$ and $n_r geq 3$ have their masses in the region $M(nL)geq 3.3$~GeV.

We examine charmed-strange mesons within the framework of the constituent quark model, focusing on the states with L=1. We are particularly interested in the mixing of two spin-states that are involved in $D_{s1}(2536)$ and the recently discovered $D_{sJ}(2460)$. We assume that these two mesons form a pair of states with J=1. These spin-states are mixed by a type of the spin-orbit interaction that violates the total-spin conservation. Without assuming explicit forms for the interactions as functions of the interquark distance, we relate the matrix elements of all relevant spin-dependent interactions to the mixing angle and the observed masses of the L=1 quartet. We find that the spin-spin interaction, among various types of the spin-dependent interactions, plays a particularly interesting role in determining the spin structure of $D_{s1}(2536)$ and $D_{sJ}(2460)$.
Using the newly measured masses of $B_c(1S)$ and $B_c(2S)$ from the CMS Collaboration and the $1S$ hyperfine splitting determined from the lattice QCD as constrains, we calculate the $B_c$ mass spectrum up to the $6S$ multiplet with a nonrelativistic linear potential model. Furthermore, using the wave functions from this model we calculate the radiative transitions between the $B_c$ states within a constituent quark model. For the higher mass $B_c$ states lying above $DB$ threshold, we also evaluate the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka (OZI) allowed two-body strong decays with the $^{3}P_{0}$ model. Our study indicates that besides there are large potentials for the observations of the low-lying $B_c$ states below the $DB$ threshold via their radiative transitions, some higher mass $B_c$ states, such as $B_c(2^3P_2)$, $B_c(2^3D_1)$, $B_c(3^3D_1)$, $B_c(4^3P_0)$, and the $1F$-wave $B_c$ states, might be first observed in their dominant strong decay channels $DB$, $DB^*$ or $D^*B$ at the LHC for their relatively narrow widths.
We give a systematic study of ${bf B}_cto {bf B}_n V$ decays, where ${bf B}_c$ and $ {bf B}_n$ correspond to the anti-triplet charmed and octet baryons, respectively, while $V$ stand for the vector mesons. We calculate the color-symmetric contributions to the decays from the effective Hamiltonian with the factorization approach and extract the anti-symmetric ones based on the experimental measurements and $SU(3)_F$ flavor symmetry. We find that most of the existing experimental data for ${bf B}_cto {bf B}_n V$ are consistent with our fitting results. We present all the branching ratios of the Cabbibo allowed, singly Cabbibo suppressed and doubly Cabbibo suppressed decays of ${bf B}_cto {bf B}_n V$. The decay parameters for the daughter baryons and mesons in ${bf B}_cto {bf B}_n V$ are also evaluated. In particular, we point out that the Cabbibo allowed decays of $Lambda_c^+ to Lambda^0 rho^+$ and $ Xi_c^0 to Xi^- rho^+$ as well as the singly Cabbibo suppressed ones of $Lambda_c^+ to Lambda^0 K^{*+}$, $Xi_c^+ to Sigma^+ phi$ and $Xi_c^0to Xi^- K^{*+}$ have large branching ratios and decay parameters with small uncertainties, which can be tested by the experimental searches at the charm facilities.
We present ground state spectra of mesons containing a charm and a bottom quark. For the charm quark we use overlap valence quarks while a non-relativistic formulation is utilized for the bottom quark on a background of 2+1+1 flavors HISQ gauge configurations generated by the MILC collaboration. The hyperfine splitting between $1S$ states of $B_c$ mesons is found to be $56^{+4}_{-3}$ MeV. We also study the baryons containing only charm and bottom quarks and predict their ground state masses. Results are obtained at three lattice spacings.
The results of treatment of data obtained in the SERP-E-184experiment Investigation of mechanisms of the production of charmed particles in proton-nucleus interactions at 70 GeV and their decays by irradiating the active target of the SVD-2 facility consisting of carbon, silicon, and lead plates, are presented. After separating a signal from the two-particle decay of neutral charmed mesons and estimating the cross section for charm production at a threshold energy {sigma}(cv{c})=7.1 pm 2.4(stat.) pm 1.4(syst.) mub/nucleon, some properties of D mesons are investigated. These include the dependence of the cross section on the target mass number (its A dependence); the behavior of the differential cross sections d{sigma}/dpt2 and d{sigma}/dxF; and the dependence of the parameter {alpha} on the kinematical variables xF, pt2, and plab. The experimental results in question are compared with predictions obtained on the basis of the FRITIOF7.02 code.
