Newest results on XYZ states at BESIII
Abstract
The BESIII experiment at BEPCII at IHEP in Beijing/China has collected the world largest data sets in the τ-charm region and it is well suited to cover a rich hadron physics programme, including charmonium and open-charm spectroscopy, R-scan or electromagnetic form factor measurements, and many more. In particular, the unique data sets between 3.8 and 4.6\,GeV allow for discoveries and precision measurements of the interesting charmonium-like (exotic) `XYZ' states. The recently published precision cross-section measurement for Y states is discussed as well as the first observation of the X(3872) in radiative decays, also the completion of the two observed isospin triplets Z c(3900) and Z c(4020) is briefly summarised.
