Abstract

The recent observation of X(5568)X(5568) by the D0 Collaboration has aroused a lot of interest both theoretically and experimentally. In the present work, we first point out that X(5568)X(5568) and Ds0(2317)D_{s0}^*(2317) cannot simultaneously be of molecular nature, from the perspective of heavy-quark symmetry and chiral symmetry, based on a previous study of the lattice QCD scattering lengths of DKDK and its coupled channels. Then we compute the discrete energy levels of the BsπB_s\pi and BKˉB\bar{K} system in finite volume using unitary chiral perturbation theory. The comparison with the latest lattice QCD simulation, which disfavors the existence of X(5568)X(5568), supports our picture where the BsπB_s\pi and BKˉB\bar{K} interactions are weak and X(5568)X(5568) cannot be a BsπB_s\pi and BKˉB\bar{K} molecular state. In addition, we show that the extended Weinberg compositeness condition also indicates that X(5568)X(5568) cannot be a molecular state made from BsπB_s\pi and BKˉB\bar{K} interactions.
