The dynamical diquark model describes multiquark exotic hadrons in terms of diquark components nucleated by heavy quarks, and successfully explains multiple features of hidden-charm and -bottom exotics. Here we apply the model to the…
It is suggested that the narrow meson state seen in the the SELEX experiment is a $(c\bar{s} s\bar{s})$ tetraquark state. Characteristics of other possible tetraquarks formed out of $c$ and $s$ quarks and antiquarks are considered.
Recent experimental evidence for the Theta^+(1540) has given rise to much theoretical interest in exotic baryons. The Theta^+ is a baryon that has strangeness S=+1, meaning that it contains an anti-strange quark. Thus it cannot be…
Based on the color-spin interaction in diquarks, we argue why some multiquark configurations could be stable against strong decay when heavy quarks are included. After showing the stability of previously discussed states we identify new…
Spectroscopic parameters and decays of the exotic tensor meson $T$ with content $bc \overline{b}\overline{c}$ are explored in the context of the diquark-antidiquark model. We treat it as a state built of axial-vector diquark $b^{T}C\gamma…
We introduce the hypothesis that diquarks and antidiquarks in tetraquarks are separated by a potential barrier. We show that this notion can answer satisfactorily long standing questions challenging the diquark-antidiquark model of exotic…
We investigated the four-quark systems with quark structures of $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$, $cq\bar{c}\bar{s}$, $bs\bar{b}\bar{s}$, and $bq\bar{b}\bar{s}$ in the framework of the non-relativistic quark model, motivated by the recent observation of…
In the diquark-diantiquark composition, we study the masses of hidden charm tetraquark systems ($cq\bar{c}\bar{q}$, $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ and $cs\bar{c}\bar{q}$) using a linear confinement potential. In this study, we have factorized the four…
A review is presented of past and recent attempts to build multiquark states within current models already describing ordinary mesons and baryons. This includes: coherence in the chromomagnetic interaction, tetraquarks with two heavy…
In present work, spectrum of the $S$-wave fully-heavy tetraquark states $QQ\bar{Q}\bar{Q}$ ($Q=c,b$), i.e., $cc\bar{c}\bar{c}$, $bb\bar{b}\bar{b}$, $cc\bar{b}\bar{b}$/$bb\bar{c}\bar{c}$, $bc\bar{c}\bar{c}$/ $cc\bar{b}\bar{c}$,…
We present a unified framework for heavy tetraquark and pentaquark systems within the quark-diquark effective mass formalism, extending its baryon-calibrated construction to multiquark states without introducing sector-dependent parameters.…
A comprehensive study of the $S$-wave heavy tetraquark states with identical quarks and antiquarks, specifically $QQ{\bar Q'}\bar Q'$ ($Q, Q'=c,b$), $QQ\bar s\bar s$/$\bar Q\bar Q ss$, and $QQ\bar q\bar q$/$\bar Q\bar Q qq$ ($q=u,d$), are…
We discuss three possible scenarios for the interpretation of mesons containing a heavy quark and its antiquark near and above the first threshold for a decay into a pair of heavy mesons in a relative $S$--wave. View I assumes that these…
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…
The low-lying $S$-wave $QQ\bar{s}\bar{s}$ ($Q=c, b$) tetraquark states with $IJ^P=00^+$, $01^+$ and $02^+$ are systematically investigated in the framework of complex scaling range of chiral quark model. Every structure including…
The last two decades are marked by a renaissance in hadronic spectroscopy caused by the arrival of vast experimental information on exotic states in the spectrum of charmonium and bottomonium. Most of such states have properties at odds…
The relativistic four-quark equations are found in the framework of coupled-channel formalism. The dynamical mixing of the meson-meson states with the four-quark states is considered. The four-quark amplitudes of the tetraquarks with hidden…

We investigate hadronic molecular states with the quark contents $ccqq\bar{s}$, $bbqq\bar{s}$, and $bcqq\bar{s}$ $(q=u,d)$ by employing the extended local hidden gauge approach. Considering that the $S$-wave meson-baryon interactions are…
The discovery of many particles, especially in the 50's, when the firsts accelerators appeared, caused the searching for a model that would describe in a simple form the whole of known particles. The Quark Model, based in the mathematical…
