The masses of tetraquark states of all $qc\bar q \bar c$ and $cc\bar c \bar c$ quark configurations are evaluated in a constituent quark model, where the Cornell-like potential and one-gluon exchange spin-spin coupling are employed. All…
Very recently LHCb reported the evidence of a new charged charmonium-like structure in the $J/\psi \pi^-$ invariant mass spectrum near 4600 MeV. In this work we investigate this structure together with three other charged charmonium-like…
Inspired by the discovery of two pentaquarks $P_{c}(4380)$ and $P_{c}(4450)$ at the LHCb detector, we study possible hidden-charm molecular pentaquarks in the framework of quark delocalization color screening model. Our results suggest that…
The LHCb collaboration has recently announced the discovery of two hidden-charm pentaquark states with also strange quark content, $P_{cs}(4338)$ and $P_{cs}(4459)$; its analysis points towards having both hadrons isospin equal to zero and…
Inspired by the recent observation of $\chi_{c0}(3930)$, $X(4685)$ and $X(4630)$ by the LHCb Collaboration and some exotic resonances such as $X(4350)$, $X(4500)$, etc. by several experiment collaborations, the $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ tetraquark…
In the quark model, hadrons are dominantly bound states of quark-antiquark pairs (mesons) or three quarks (baryons), but QCD also allows hadronic states to be composed of more quarks bound together. Recently, BESIII, Belle and LHCb have…
We study the mass splittings of $Q_1q_2\bar{Q}_3\bar{q}_4$ ($Q=c,b$, $q=u,d,s$) tetraquark states with chromomagnetic interactions between their quark components. Assuming that $X(4140)$ is the lowest $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$…
We study the $P_{cs}(4459)^0$ recently observed by LHCb using the method of QCD sum rules. Our results support its interpretation as the $\bar D^* \Xi_c$ hadronic molecular state of either $J^P=1/2^-$ or $3/2^-$. Within the hadronic…
We discuss the interpretation of the $J\!/\!\psi\,J\!/\!\psi$ peak recently seen by the LHCb collaboration at CERN, and take the opportunity to review the experimental and theoretical state of the art for exotic hadrons. It is stressed that…
A potential quark model is used to search for a $P_{c\bar{c}s}^0=(c\bar{c}uds)^0$, $J^P=1/2^-$ pentaquark state that has recently been observed experimentally by the LHCb collaboration at 4338.2 MeV, with a width of 7.0 MeV and high…
Very recently, the LHCb collaboration released the newest measurements of $B_s \to J/\psi p\bar{p}$, where an enhancement structure near 4.34 GeV was observed in the invariant mass spectrum of $J/\psi p$ with the statistical significance of…
The 2015 LHCb discovery of a structure (denoted by $P_c^+$) decaying in $J/\psi \,p$ and conjectured to be a penta-quark state, has triggered a renewed interest in the question of possible existence of multi-quark states not predicted by…
We study baryo-charmonium [$\eta_{\rm c}$- and $J/\psi$-$N^*$, $\eta_{\rm c}(2S)$-, $\psi(2S)$- and $\chi_{\rm c}(1P)$-$N$] and baryo-bottomonium [$\eta_{\rm b}(2S)$-, $\Upsilon(2S)$- and $\chi_{\rm b}(1P)$-$N$] bound states, where $N$ is…
A narrow pentaquark state, $P_c(4312)^+$, decaying to $J/\psi p$ is discovered with a statistical significance of $7.3\sigma$ in a data sample of ${\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi p K^-}$ decays which is an order of magnitude larger than that…
We suggest that the J/psi phi structures observed by LHCb can be fitted in two tetraquak multiplets, the S-wave ground state and the first radial excitation, with composition [cs][cbar sbar]. When compared to the previously identified…
We extend our previous study of the interactions of $\bar{D}^{(*)} \Lambda_c - \bar{D}^{(*)}\Sigma_c^{(*)}$ within an analytic, unitary, coupled-channel approach by including the $J/\psi p$ channel and performing fits to the $J/\psi p$…
Charmonium, the spectroscopy of c\bar{c} mesons, has recently enjoyed a renaissance with the discovery of several missing states and a number of unexpected charmonium-like resonances. The discovery of these new states has been made possible…
The LHCb Collaboration has observed two types of hidden-charm pentaquark states $P_{\psi}^N$ and $P_{\psi s}^{\Lambda}$ since 2015. In this work, we predict two other types of hidden-charm pentaquark states $P_{\psi s}^{\Sigma}(4367)$ and…
Inspired by the recent observation of exotic resonances $X(4140)$, $X(4274)$, $X(4350)$, $X(4500)$ and $X(4700)$ reported by several experiment collaborations, we investigated the four-quark system $cs\bar c\bar s$ with quantum numbers…
$P_c$ resonances are studied in the approach of quark model and group theory. It is found that there are totally 17 possible pentaquark states with the quark contents $q^3Q \bar Q$ ($q$ are $u$ and $d$ quarks; $Q$ is $c$ quark) in the…
