Title: Molecule-like Exotics in the Heavy Sector

Speaker: Prof. Roxanne P. Springer (Duke University)

Time: 10:00AM, July 24th (Tuesday)

Place: Theory Division,319

Abstract: The speaker will motivate the treatment of the X(3872) and similar "exotics" as bound states of mesons in an effective field theory, utilizing symmetries and the separation of scales in the problem. Then the speaker will discuss observables that might help illuminate the character of such states.
