Abstract:
The recently observed new member of the charm-strange family D(s)(2632), which has a surprisingly narrow width, is challenging our theory. D(s)(2317) and D(s)(2457), which were observed earlier, have similar behaviors and receive various theoretical explanations. Some authors use the heavy hadron chiral effective theory to evaluate heavy-light quark systems and obtain a reasonable evaluation on the masses of D(s)(2317) and D(s)(2457). An alternative picture is to interpret them as four-quark or molecular states. In this work, we are following the latter and propose a unitive description for all three new members, D(s)(2632), D(s)(2317), and D(s)(2457), and, at least, so far our picture is consistent with the data.

Splitting diagrams or splitting tree diagrams are routinely used to depict such complex couplings. While drawing splitting diagrams, the splitting with the larger coupling constant is usually applied first.
