The recently discovered $X$(3872) has many possible interpretations. We study the production of $X$(3872) with PANDA at GSI for the antiproton-proton collision with two possible interpretations of X(3872). One is as a loosely-bound molecule of $D$-mesons, while another is a 2P charmonium state $chi_{c1}$ (2P). Using effective couplings we are able to give numerical predictions for the production near the threshold and the production associated with $pi^0$. The produced $X$(3872) can be identified with its decay $J/psi pi^+pi^-$. We also study the possible background near the threshold production for $X(3872) to J/psi pi^+pi^-$. With the designed luminosity $1.5{rm fb}^{-1}$ per year of PANDA we find that the event number of $pbar p to J/psi pi^+pi^-$ near the threshold is at the order of $10^6 sim 10^8$, where the large uncertainty comes from the total decay width of X(3872). Our study shows that at the threshold more than about 60% events come from the decay of X(3872) and two interpretations are distinguishable from the line-shape of the production. With our results we except that the PANDA experiments will shed light on the property of X(3872).

Monte-Carlo simulations for a resonance scan of the charmonium-like state X(3872) at Panda are performed. Final state radiation hadronic background reactions are taken into account. The signal reconstruction uses a realistic pattern recognition (trac
k finder and track fitter) and electron/pion discrimination.
We evaluate the production cross sections of $X(3872)$ at the LHC and Tevatron at NLO in $alpha_s$ in NRQCD by assuming that the short-distance production proceeds dominantly through its $chi_{c1}$ component in our $chi_{c1}mbox{-}D^0bar{D}^{*0}$ mix
ing model for $X(3872)$. The outcomes of the fits to the CMS $p_T$ distribution can well account for the recent ATLAS data in a much larger range of transverse momenta ($10~mbox{GeV}<p_T<70~mbox{GeV}$), and the CDF total cross section data, and are also consistent with the value of $k=Z_{cbar c}cdot Br(Xto J/psipi^+pi^-)$ constrained by the $B$-meson decay data. %It can also well describe the behavior of the CDF $psi(2S)$ data, which show a strong %resemblance to that of the X(3872). For LHCb the predicted X(3872) total cross section is larger than the data by a factor of 2, which is due to the problem of the fixed-order NRQCD calculation that may not be applicable for the region with small $p_T$ ($p_Tsim 5 ~mbox{GeV}$) and large forward rapidity $(2.5<y<4.5)$. In comparison, the prediction of molecule production mechanism for $X(3872)$ is inconsistent with both $p_T$ distributions and total cross sections of CMS and ATLAS, and the total cross section of CDF.
The production of the X(3872) as a hadronic molecule in hadron colliders is clarified. We show that the conclusion of Bignamini et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 103 (2009) 162001, that the production of the X(3872) at high $p_T$ implies a non-molecular struc
ture, does not hold. In particular, using the well understood properties of the deuteron wave function as an example, we identify the relevant scales in the production process.
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 ar
e 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.
Heavy ion collisions provide a unique opportunity to study the nature of X(3872) compared with electron-positron and proton-proton (antiproton) collisions. With the abundant charm pairs produced in heavy-ion collisions, the production of multicharm h
adrons and molecules can be enhanced by the combination of charm and anticharm quarks in the medium. We investigate the centrality and momentum dependence of X(3872) in heavy-ion collisions via the Langevin equation and instant coalescence model (LICM). When X(3872) is treated as a compact tetraquark state, the tetraquarks are produced via the coalescence of heavy and light quarks near the quantum chromodynamic (QCD) phase transition due to the restoration of the heavy quark potential at $Trightarrow T_c$. In the molecular scenario, loosely bound X(3872) is produced via the coalescence of $D^0$-$bar D^{*0}$ mesons in a hadronic medium after kinetic freeze-out. The phase space distributions of the charm quarks and D mesons in a bulk medium are studied with the Langevin equation, while the coalescence probability between constituent particles is controlled by the Wigner function, which encodes the internal structure of the formed particle. First, we employ the LICM to explain both $D^0$ and $J/psi$ production as a benchmark. Then, we give predictions regarding X(3872) production. We find that the total yield of tetraquark is several times larger than the molecular production in Pb-Pb collisions. Although the geometric size of the molecule is huge, the coalescence probability is small due to strict constraints on the relative momentum between $D^0$ and $bar D^{*0}$ in the molecular Wigner function, which significantly suppresses the molecular yield.
