Contribution

It provides an analysis of hadronic dynamics affecting B meson research and proposes models for newly observed exotic heavy hadron resonances.

Findings

Limitations from hadronic dynamics impact weak-interaction measurements.

Models proposed for exotic resonances with hidden charm.

Discussion of strong QCD effects in heavy hadron spectroscopy.

Abstract

I discuss topics in the strong QCD dynamics that are of relevance to studies of the $B$ mesons and to the spectroscopy of heavy hadrons. In particular the limitations from the hadronic dynamics for the determination of the weak-interaction parameters are discussed as well as some models for the newly observed apparently exotic resonances with hidden charm.
