$Z_c^+(3900)$ decay width in QCD sum rules

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2013-08-09 v2

Abstract

We identify the recently observed charmonium-like structure Zc±(3900)Z_c^\pm(3900) as the charged partner of the X(3872) state. Using standard techniques of QCD sum rules, we evaluate the three-point function and extract the coupling constants of the ZcJ/ψπ+Z_c \, J/\psi \, \pi^+ and Zcηcρ+Z_c \, \eta_c \, \rho^+ vertices and the corresponding decay widths in these channels. The good agreement with the experimental data gives support to the tetraquark picture of this state.
