Abstract

The two-body open charm decays Z+(4430)D+Dˉ0,D+Dˉ0,D+Dˉ0Z^+(4430)\to D^{+}\bar{D}^{*0}, D^{*+}\bar{D}^{0}, D^{*+}\bar{D}^{*0} occur through the re-scattering mechanism and their branching ratios are strongly suppressed if Z+(4430)Z^+(4430) is a D1DˉD_1\bar D^* molecular state. In contrast, Z+(4430)Z^+(4430) falls apart into these modes easily with large phase space and they become the main decay modes if Z+(4430)Z^+(4430) is a tetraquark state. Experimental search of these two-body open charm modes and the hidden charm mode χcJρ\chi_{cJ}\rho will help distinguish different theoretical schemes.
