Abstract

Possibility of an axial vector isoscalar tetraquark udsˉsˉud\bar{s}\bar{s} is discussed. If a f1f_1 meson in the mass region 1.41.51.4-1.5 GeV consists of four quarks nsnˉsˉns\bar{n}\bar{s}, the mass of the isoscalar udsˉsˉud\bar{s}\bar{s}(ϑ+\vartheta^+-meson) state with JP=1+J^P=1^+ is expected to be lower than that of the f1f_1 meson. Within a flux-tube quark model, a possible resonant state of udsˉsˉ(JP=1+)ud\bar{s}\bar{s}(J^{P}=1^{+}) is suggested to appear at \sim 1.4 GeV with the width O(2050){\cal{O}}(20\sim 50) MeV. We propose that the ϑ+\vartheta^+-meson is the good candidate for the tetraquark search, which would be observed in the K+K+πK^+K^+\pi^- decay channel.
