Comment on the X(3915) nonstandard hadron candidate

Abstract

I review the experimental evidence for the X(3915), the candidate nonstandard meson associated with ω J resonance-like peaks in B→ Kω J and γγ→ω J near M(ω J)=3920~MeV, and address the conjecture that it can be identified as the c2, the radial excitation of the c2 charmonium state. Since the partial decay width for B→ K X(3915) is at least an order-of-magnitude larger than that for B→ Kc2, its assignment as the c2 is dubious.
