Abstract

We calculate the mass spectrum of the S-wave fully heavy tetraquark systems QQQˉQˉ (Q=c,b) QQ\bar Q\bar Q~(Q=c,b) with both normal (JPC=0++,1+,2++) (J^{PC}=0^{++},1^{+-},2^{++}) and exotic (JPC=0+,1++,2+) (J^{PC}=0^{+-},1^{++},2^{+-}) C-parities using three different quark potential models (AL1, AP1, BGS). The exotic C-parity systems refer to the ones that cannot be composed of two S-wave ground heavy quarkonia. We incorporate the molecular dimeson and compact diquark-antidiquark spatial correlations simultaneously, thereby discerning the actual configurations of the states. We employ the Gaussian expansion method to solve the four-body Schr\"odinger equation, and the complex scaling method to identify the resonant states. The mass spectra in three different models qualitatively agree with each other. We obtain several resonant states with JPC=0++,1+,2++,1++ J^{PC} = 0^{++}, 1^{+-}, 2^{++}, 1^{++} in the mass region (6.92,7.30)GeV(6.92,7.30)\, \mathrm{GeV}, some of which are good candidates of the experimentally observed X(6900)X(6900) and X(7200)X(7200). We also obtain several exotic C-parity zero-width states with JPC=0+ J^{PC}=0^{+-} and 2+ 2^{+-} . These zero-width states have no corresponding S-wave diquarkonium threshold and can only decay strongly to final states with P-wave quarkonia. With the notation T4Q,J(C)(M)T_{4Q,J(C)}(M), we deduce from the root mean square radii that the X(7200) X(7200) candidates T4c,0(+)(7173),T4c,2(+)(7214) T_{4c,0(+)}(7173), T_{4c,2(+)}(7214) and the state T4c,1()(7191) T_{4c,1(-)}(7191) look like molecular states although most of the resonant and zero-width states are compact states.
