In this Letter we interpret the Y(4260), a state recently discovered by the BaBar Collaboration that has a mass within the range of conventional charmonium states, as having a molecular-state structure. In our scheme this molecular-like…
We predict exotic doubly heavy--strange pentaquarks with minimal quark content $u\bar d sQQ'$ ($QQ'=cc,bc,bb$) within a coupled-channel unitary framework where the interaction is derived from an extension of the local hidden gauge approach…
In the framework of the chiral quark model along with complex scaling range, we perform a dynamical study on the low-lying $S$-wave doubly-heavy tetraquark states ($QQ\bar{q}\bar{q}$, $Q=c, b$ and $q=u, d$) with an accurate computing…
The width of the newly observed exotic state $X_b(5568)$ is calculated via its dominant strong decay to $% B_s^{0} \pi^{+}$ using the QCD sum rule method on the light-cone in conjunction with the soft-meson approximation. To this end, the…
We study the fine structure in the spectrum of known and predicted negative-parity hidden-charm exotic meson states, which comprise the lowest $P$-wave multiplet in the dynamical diquark model. Starting with a form previously shown to…
The recently discovered charmed-strangemeson Ds0*(2317) has been speculated to be a tetraquark mesonium. We study this suggestion with overlap fermions on 2+1 flavor domain wall fermion configurations. We use 4-quark interpolating…
We study the spectra of the doubly charmed tetraquark states in a diquark-antidiquark model. The doubly charmed tetraquark states form an antitriplet and a sextet configurations according to flavor SU(3) symmetry. For the tetraquark state…
Inspired by the observation of the $X(6900)$ by LHCb and the $X(6600)$ (with mass $6552\pm 10$ $\pm 12$ MeV) recently by CMS and ATLAS experiments of the LHC in the di-$J/\Psi $ invariant mass spectrum, we systemically study masses of all…
The purpose of the present study is to explore the mass spectrum of the hidden charm tetraquark states within a diquark model. Proposing that a tetraquark state is composed of a diquark and an antidiquark, the masses of all possible…
In this work, we study the $D\bar{D}$, $DD$, $D\bar{D}_s$, $DD_s$, $D_s\bar{D}_s$ and $D_sD_s$ tetraquark molecular states with the $J^{PC}=0^{++}$ via the QCD sum rules. The prediction $M_{D_s\bar {D}_s} = 3.98\pm0.10\, \rm{GeV}$ is in…
The proximity of ${\rm Z}^+(4430)$ to the ${\rm D^{*}\bar{D}_1}$ threshold suggests that it may be a ${\rm D^{*}\bar{D}_1}$ molecular state. The ${\rm D^{*}\bar{D}_1}$ system has been studied dynamically from quark model, and state mixing…
For many decades after the invention of the quark model in 1964 there was no evidence that hadrons are formed from anything other than the simplest pairings of quarks and antiquarks, mesons being formed of a quark-antiquark pair and baryons…
The exciting discovery by LHCb of the $P_c(4312)^+$ and $P_c(4450)^+$ pentaquarks, or the suggestion of a tetraquark nature for the $Z_c(3900)$ state seen at BESIII and Belle, have triggered a lot of activity in the field of hadron physics,…
We study the internal structure of a range of four-quark states with charm quark contributions using a two-body Bethe-Salpeter equation. Thereby, we examine charmonium-like states with hidden charm and quark content $c\bar{c}q\bar{q}$,…
Motivated by the successful interpretation of these observed $P_c$ and $P_{cs}$ states under the meson-baryon molecular picture, we systematically investigate the possible hidden-charm molecular pentaquark states with triple strangeness…
In a recent paper by N. Santowsky et al. [Phys. Rev. D 102, 056014 (2020)], covariant coupled equations were derived to describe a tetraquark in terms of a mix of four-quark states $2q 2\bar{q}$ and two-quark states $q\bar{q}$. These…
QCD-motivated models for hadrons predict an assortment of "exotic" hadrons that have structures that are more complex than the quark-antiquark mesons and three-quark baryons of the original quark-parton model. These include pentaquark…
