Abstract

The exotic hadron G(3900)G(3900), initially observed in the process e+eDDˉe^+ e^- \to D\bar{D}, has been further supported by analyses from the BESIII Collaboration, which classify it as a PP-wave molecular state of D+D/DD+D^{+}D^{*-}/D^{-}D^{*+}. However, theoretical discussions raise concerns about its status as a true particle, emphasizing the need for additional studies. In this Letter, we employ the triangular singularity mechanism to investigate G(3900)G(3900) across various reaction channels, allowing us to produce significant peaks without relying on the existence of a real particle. We identify X(4020)X(4020), Y(4320)Y(4320), and the tentative X(4014)X(4014) as potential sources of these peaks via decay processes to γG(3900)\gamma G(3900) or πG(3900)\pi G(3900). We stress the importance of experimental explorations of e+eX/Yγ(π)G(3900)e^+ e^- \to X/Y \to \gamma(\pi) G(3900), which are essential for confirming the molecular composition of D+D/DD+D^{+}D^{*-}/D^{-}D^{*+} and refining the mass measurement of G(3900)G(3900).
