Abstract

Four exotic charmonium-like states, i.e. X(4140)X(4140), X(4274)X(4274), X(4500)X(4500), and X(4700)X(4700), have been observed very recently by LHCb Collaboration in the decay process B+J/ψϕK+B^+\to J/\psi \phi K^+ using the 3fb1{\rm fb}^{-1} data of ppˉp\bar p collision at s=7\sqrt s= 7 and 88 TeV. In this paper, we investigate systematically the properties of hidden charm tetraquark states. The hidden charm tetraquarks form an octet configuration and a singlet configuration according to flavor SU(3)SU(3) symmetry. Based on a diquark-antidiquark model, the hidden charm tetraquarks spectra are given. The previous XYZ exotic states altogether with the newly ones X(4140)X(4140), X(4274)X(4274), X(4500)X(4500), and X(4700)X(4700), can be well classified into certain representations. The spin-parities and masses of the XYZ are predicted, most of which are in agreement with the data. We particularly find that Zc(4430)Z_c(4430) may be treated as the first radial excitation of Zc(3900)Z_c(3900), while the Y(1)Y(1^{--}) states can be obtained by the first orbital excitation of the X/ZX/Z states. Besides, we calculate the decay widths of the hidden charm tetraquarks into two charmed mesons. This work gives a general tetraquark description for the XYZ states, which is helpful to uncover their inner structures.
