Abstract

In this work, a color structure dependent flip-flop potential is developed for the two quarks and two antiquarks system. Then, this potential is applied to a microscopic quark model which, by integrating the internal degrees of freedom, is transformed into a model of mesons with non-local interactions. With this, the T matrix for the system is constructed and meson-meson scattering is studied. Tetraquarks states, interpreted as poles of of the T matrix, both bound states and resonances, are found. Special emphasis is given to the truly exotic qqQˉQˉqq\bar{Q}\bar{Q} system, but some results for the crypto-exotic qQqˉQˉqQ\bar{q}\bar{Q} are also presented.
