We present an analysis of angular distributions and correlations of the X (3872) particle in the exclusive decay mode X (3872) → J/ψ π + π − with J/ψ → µ + µ − . We use 780 pb − 1 of data from p ¯ p collisions at √ s = 1 . 96 TeV collected with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. We derive constraints on spin, parity, and charge conjugation parity of the X (3872) particle by comparing measured angular distributions of the decay products with predictions for different J PC hypotheses. The assignments J PC = 1 ++ and 2 − + are the only ones consistent with the data.
