Abstract

We investigate hidden-charm exotic mesons based on a coupled-channel framework, where the physical states are described as superpositions of a compact ccˉc\bar c core (identified with the χcJ(2P)\chi_{cJ}(2P) states) and hadronic components such as D()Dˉ()D^{(*)}\bar D^{(*)}. We incorporate meson exchange potentials to describe hadron-hadron interactions and determine model parameters to reproduce the observed masses of X(3872)X(3872) and Z(3930)Z(3930). The model also predicts a 0++0^{++} bound state consistent with the X(3860)X(3860). The internal structure is found to be predominantly molecular for the X(3872)X(3872), while the X(3860)X(3860) and Z(3930)Z(3930) have larger ccˉc\bar{c} components. The coupling between ccˉc\bar{c} cores and hadronic components plays a crucial role in generating these states. The resulting wave functions provide insight into the internal structure and decay properties of these exotic states.
