Abstract

In this work, we chose three molecular and three diquark-antidiquark currents with the quark content ccˉssˉc\bar{c}s\bar{s} and JPC=0++,1++,2++J^{PC}=0^{++},1^{++},2^{++}, and estimated the masses and the meson coupling constants of the ground states coupling to these currents in the framework of QCD sum rules. In operator product expansion, we considered the terms including dimension eight, and we performed pole contribution tests carefully. According to our results, all of these currents couple to the ground states with degenerate masses which are in 10 MeV vicinity of X(4140). Therefore, with a QCD sum rules analysis, it is not possible to conclude that X(4140) has a dominant molecular or diquark-antidiquark content. However, there may be three states degenerate in mass, with positive charge conjugation and different isospins.
