Meson loop singularity, exotic states' productions and decays near threshold

We investigate in detail the "triangle singularity" regions of meson loops where the corresponding intermediate mesons are nearly-on-shell and have relatively small momenta, and the two heavy mesons strongly interact with each other in an $S$ wave. This $S$-wave interaction will make such kind of meson loops always enhanced and can explain experimental observations of threshold enhancements. We show that the production of the $Y(4260)$ and the recently observed $Z_c(3900)$ can be related to each other by this mechanism which will allow for a possible understanding of the nature of these threshold enhancements.
