25. Summary and Discussion  A new resonance X(1835) observed in  The mass, width and branching fractions obtained from  two different decay modes are consistent with each other.  X(1835) could be the same structure as ppbar mass threshold enhancement.  It could be a ppbar bound state since it dominantly decays to ppbar when its mass is above ppbar mass threshold.  Its spin-parity should be 0 -+ : this would be an important test.  PDG2006 takes it as a possible ppbar bound state.
