We revisit the hidden-charm pentaquark states $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4450)$ using the method of QCD sum rules by requiring the pole contribution to be larger than or around 30\% to better insure the one-pole parametrization to be valid. We…
In this article, we study the $J^{PC}=0^{++}$ and $2^{++}$ $QQ\bar{Q}\bar{Q}$ tetraquark states with the QCD sum rules, and obtain the predictions $M_{X(cc\bar{c}\bar{c},0^{++})} =5.99\pm0.08\,\rm{GeV}$, $M_{X(cc\bar{c}\bar{c},2^{++})}…
Inspired by the great progress in the observations of charmonium-like states in recent years, we perform a systematic analysis about the ground states and the first radially excited states of $qc\bar{q}\bar{c}$ ($q$=$u/d$ and $s$)…
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…

We perform a QCD sum rule study of the open-charmed $D_s (2317)$ as a four-quark state. Using the diquark-antidiquark picture for the four-quark state, we consider four possible interpolating fields for $D_s (2317)$, namely, scalar-scalar,…
Many of the $XYZ$ resonances observed by the Belle, Babar, CLEO and BESIII collaborations in the past decade are difficult to interpret as conventional quark-antiquark mesons, motivating the consideration of scenarios such as multi-quark…

We systematically investigate the electromagnetic properties of exotic states whose internal structures remain uncertain and for which different models have been proposed. In this work, we focus on the magnetic dipole moments of…
Within the framework of QCD sum rules, we have investigated the tetraquark states with three heavy quarks. We systematically construct the interpolating currents for the possible $cc\bar{c}\bar{q}$, $cc\bar{b}\bar{q}$, $bc\bar{b}\bar{q}$,…
Four-quark states with different internal clusters are discussed within the constituent quark model. It is pointed out that the diquark concept is not meaningful in the construction of a tetraquark interpolating current in the QCD sum rule…

In this paper, a new type of hybrid state, which consists of two valence quarks and two valence antiquarks together with a valence gluon, the gluonic tetraquark states, are investigated. Twenty-four currents of the the gluonic hidden-charm…
In this article, we take the $X(4140)$ as the diquark-antidiquark type $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ tetraquark state with $J^{PC}=1^{++}$, and study the mass and pole residue with the QCD sum rules in details by constructing two types interpolating…
We present a QCD sum rule analysis for the anti-charmed pentaquark state with and without strangeness. While the sum rules for most of the currents are either non-convergent or dominated by the $DN$ continuum, the one for the non-strange…
In the present work, the doubly-charm and doubly-bottom pentaquark molecular states $D^{(*)}\Sigma_c^{(*)}$ and $B^{(*)}\Sigma_b^{(*)}$ are studied via the QCD sum rules. Sixteen color singlet-singlet type currents with the definite…

The full version of QCD light-cone sum rule method is applied to tetraquarks containing a single heavy $b$ or $c$ quark. To this end, investigations of the strong vertices $X_{b}X_{b}\rho$ and $X_{c}X_{c}\rho$ are performed, where…
