| contents | In this presentation the notion of hadronic molecules is reviewed and it is argued that some of the enigmatic single and double heavy mesons, namely the lowest lying positive parity open charm states, the $T_{cc}(3875)^+$ and the $χ_{c1}(3872)$ aka $X(3872)$, that do not fit into the conventional quark--anti-quark scheme in fact qualify as hadronic molecules. For the single heavy states we show that an alternative explanation as diquark--anti-diquark structure is at odds with either phenomenology or lattice data. For the $X(3872)$ we discuss also the claimed isovector partner state, whose properties would provide additional strong support for a molecular structure of the $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ states near the $D\bar D^{*}$ thresholds. Its existence could be confirmed by, e.g., a high statistics measurement of the $J/ψπ^+π^-$ lineshape from $B^0\to K^0 J/ψπ^+π^-$. |
