We have studied some possible four-quark and molecule contents of the X(3872) using double ratios of sum rules, which are more accurate than the usual simple ratios often used in the literature for getting the hadron masses. We found that…
We use QCD spectral sum rules to test the nature of the meson X(3872), assumed to be an exotic four-quark (c\bar{c}q\bar{q}) state with J^{PC}=1^{++}. For definiteness, we work with the current proposed recently by Maiani et al [1], at…
We present improved estimates of the couplings, masses and mass ratios of the $X_Q, Z_Q$ and $T_{QQ\bar q\bar q'}$ states using (inverse) QCD Laplace sum rules (LSR), their ratios ${\cal R}$ and double ratios (DRSR), within stability…
We present improved estimates of the couplings, masses and mass ratios of the Z_Q,X_Q and T_{QQqq} states using QCD Laplace sum rules (LSR), their ratios R and double ratios DRSR within stability criteria, where the NLO factorized PT QCD…
We use QCD sum rules to test the nature of the meson X(3872), assumed to be a mixture between charmonium and exotic molecular [c\bar{q}][q\bar{c}] states with J^{PC}=1^{++}. We find that there is only a small range for the values of the…
QCD sum-rules are employed to determine whether the X(3872) can be described as a mixed state that couples to $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ charmonium hybrid and $\bar D D^*$ molecular currents. After calculating the mixed correlator of hybrid and…
Using the QCD spectral sum rule approach we investigate different currents with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$, which could be associated with the $X(3872)$ meson. Our results indicate that, with a four-quark or molecular structure, it is very difficult…
We use QCD sum rules to calculate the branching ratio for the production of the meson X(3872) in the decay $B\to X(3872)K$, assumed to be a mixture between charmonium and exotic molecular $[c\bar{q}][q\bar{c}]$ states with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$.…
We use QCD sum rules to study the possible existence of $QQ-\bar{u}\bar{d}$ mesons, assumed to be a state with $J^{P}=1^{+}$. For definiteness, we work with a current with an axial heavy diquark and a scalar light antidiquark, at leading…
Properties of doubly charged scalar tetraquarks $bb\overline{c}\overline{c}$ are investigated in the framework of the QCD sum rule method. We model them as diquark-antidiquark states $X_{\mathrm{1}}$ and $X_{\mathrm{2}}$ built of…
We consider the ratios of doubly heavy baryon masses using Double Ratios of Sum Rules (DRSR), which are more accurate than the usual simple ratios used for getting hadron masses. Our results are comparable with the ones from potential…
We study $D\bar{D}^*$ ($D^*\bar{D}$) scattering in the framework of unitarized heavy meson chiral perturbation theory with pion exchange and a contact interaction. $^3S_1-$$^3D_1$ mixing effects are taken into account. A loosely bound state…
In this work we investigate the $X(3872)$ meson with quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ in the framework of the thermal QCD sum rules method. We use a diquark-antidiquark current with the corresponding quantum numbers and calculate the…
We perform a coupled channel calculation of the $DD^*$ and $c\bar c$ sectors in the framework of a constituent quark model. The interaction for the $DD^*$ states is obtained using the Resonant Group Method (RGM) and the underlying quark…
We argue why the recently observed $T_{cc}$ could either be a compact multiquark configuration or a loosely bound molecular configuration composed of charmed mesons, whereas the $X(3872)$ is most likely a molecular configuration. The…
In this work, we chose three molecular and three diquark-antidiquark currents with the quark content $c\bar{c}s\bar{s}$ and $J^{PC}=0^{++},1^{++},2^{++}$, and estimated the masses and the meson coupling constants of the ground states…
The Bethe-Salpeter equation for the T-Matrix of D-D* scattering is solved with a meson-meson potential that results from 2nd order Born approximation of quark exchange processes. This potential turns out to be complex and energy dependent…
If the quantum numbers of the X(3872) are J^{PC}=1^{++}, the measurement of its mass implies that it is either a loosely-bound hadronic molecule whose constituents are a superposition of the charm mesons pairs D^{*0} Dbar^0 and D^0…
The mass, current coupling, and width of the doubly charmed four-quark meson $T_{cc}^{+}$ are explored by treating it as a hadronic molecule $ M_{cc}^{+}\equiv D^{0}D^{\ast +}$. The mass and current coupling of this molecule are calculated…
We discuss the nature of the $\chi_b(3P)$ and $X(3872)$ mesons: Are the $\chi_b(3P)$'s standard $b \bar b$ mesons or $b \bar b$ states with a significative continuum component? Is the $X(3872)$ a $c \bar c$ state with continuum coupling…
