Y(4140): Possible options

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2010-10-27 v2

Abstract

We discuss possible options for interpreting the newly observed state Y(4140) by the CDF collaboration in B+J/ψϕK+B^+\to J/\psi\phi K^+ decay above the J/ψϕJ/\psi\phi threshold, and argue that it is more likely to be a DsD_s^*-DsD_s^* molecular state or an exotic (JPC=1+J^{PC}=1^{-+}) hybrid charmonium. We have discussed decay modes which would allow unambiguous identification of the hybrid charmonium option.
