Composed of square particles, the tetratic phase is characterised by a four-fold symmetry with quasi-long-range orientational order but no translational order. We construct the elastic free energy for tetratics and find a closed form…
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…
