Abstract

In a nonrelativistic potential quark model framework, we carry out a precise calculation of the mass spectrum of the all-heavy tetraquarks with different flavors, bbbˉcˉbb\bar{b}\bar{c}, cccˉbˉcc\bar{c}\bar{b}, bbcˉcˉbb\bar{c}\bar{c}, and bcbˉcˉbc\bar{b}\bar{c}, by adopting the explicitly correlated Gaussian method. A complete mass spectrum for the 1S1S states is obtained. For the bbbˉcˉbb\bar{b}\bar{c}, cccˉbˉcc\bar{c}\bar{b}, bbcˉcˉbb\bar{c}\bar{c}, and bcbˉcˉbc\bar{b}\bar{c} systems, the 1S1S states are predicted to lie in the mass ranges of (16.06,16.14) \sim(16.06,16.14), (9.65,9.74)\sim(9.65,9.74), (12.89,12.94)\sim(12.89,12.94), and (12.75,12.99)\sim(12.75,12.99)~GeV, respectively.Moreover, by using the obtained masses and wave functions, we evaluate the fall-apart decay properties within a quark-exchange model.The results show that the 1S1S states of the all-heavy tetraquarks with different flavors may have narrow fall-apart decay widths,which ranging from a few tenths to several MeV. Some all-heavy tetraquarks with different flavors may have good potentials to be established at LHC in their optimal fall-apart decay channels, such as ΥJ/ψ\Upsilon J/\psi, ΥBc\Upsilon B_c^-, and J/ψBc+J/\psi B_c^+.
