(2:00 PM - 3:15 PM) -- Abstract: The X(3872) is a neutral axial vector particle with charm-anticharm quark content that cannot be classified as a standard meson. It is widely accepted that X(3872) is the first heavy tetraquark ever observed, but how charm and light quarks are distributed in it, is still rather controversial. For some authors the X is a large size shallow bound state of open charm mesons, for others it results from four valence quarks held together by color forces in a compact particle. I will report some arguments on this discussion which benefits from continuous inputs from experimental physics.
