In present work, we systematically calculate the mass spectra of open charm and bottom tetraquarks $q q\bar q \bar Q$ within an extended relativized quark model. The four-body relativized Hamiltonians including the Coulomb potential,…
Motivated by recent experimental evidence for apparent $cc\bar c \bar c$ states at LHCb, CMS and ATLAS, we consider how the mass spectrum and decays of such states can be used to discriminate among their possible theoretical…

It is pointed out that the previously suggested interpretation of the hidden-charm pentaquarks $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ as molecular bound states of $\Sigma_c \bar D$ and $\Sigma_c \bar D^*$ baryon-meson pairs gives rise to…
We perform a systematic study of the electromagnetic properties of exotic states to shed light on their nature, which is still controversial and not fully understood. The magnetic dipole and higher multipole moments of a hadronic state are…
I give a brief account of current topics in description of exotic multiquark mesonic resonances with hidden heavy ($c$ or $b$) flavor, the so-called XYZ states, in terms of hadronic molecules and hadro-quarkonium systems. Also discussed are…
We use a constituent model to analyze the stability of pentaquark $\bar Q qqqq$ configurations with a heavy antiquark $\bar c$ or $\bar b$, and four light quarks $uuds$, $ddsu$ or $ssud$. The interplay between chromoelectric and…

Stimulated by the newly observed charged hidden-charm state $Z_{cs}(3985)^-$ by BESIII Collaboration, $Z_{cs}(4000)^+$, $Z_{cs}(4220)^+$ and the excited $B_s^0$ states by LHCb Collaboration, a full calculation including masses and decay…
We study the hadronic molecular structure of hidden heavy pentaquarks - new exotic states composed of charmed/bottom baryons and $D(D^*)/B(B^*)$ mesons. Based on the observation of three pentaquark candidates $P_c^+(4312)$, $P_c^+(4440)$,…
Since the discovery of the $T_{cc}$ double-charm tetaquark by the LHCb collaboration, the field of the theoretical research on heavy quarks has advanced rapidly, with increasing interest in exploring the light quark sector. In this study,…
The exploration of exotic hadrons provides a crucial testing ground for quantum chromodynamics in its non-perturbative regime. In this work, we perform a systematic study of the two-body strong decay properties of single-charm molecular…

We investigate hidden-charm molecular states in $\Xi_c^{(\prime,*)}\bar{D}^{(*)}$ systems using the one-boson exchange model. By regulating the short-range interactions with parameter $a$ and cutoff $\Lambda$, we found ten bound states in…
In the framework of a nonrelativistic potential quark model, we investigate the mass spectrum of the $1S$-wave charmed-strange tetraquark states of $cn\bar{s}\bar{n}$ and $cs\bar{n}\bar{n}$ ($n=u$ or $d$) systems. The tetraquark system is…
We have studied the mass spectra of the hidden-charm/bottom $qc\bar q\bar c$, $sc\bar s\bar c$ and $qb\bar q\bar b$, $sb\bar s\bar b$ tetraquark states with $J^{PC}=0^{++}$ and $2^{++}$ in the framework of QCD sum rules. We construct ten…
Inspired by the newly observed $P_{\psi s}^\Lambda(4338)$ and the reported $P_{cs}(4459)$, we indicate the existence of the molecular-type characteristic mass spectrum for hidden-charm pentaquark with strangeness. It shows that the…
We present quantitative results for masses and the internal structure of four-quark states with two heavy quarks, i.e. $QQ'\bar{q}\bar{q}'$ with $Q,Q'\in \{c,b\}$ and $q,q' \in \{u,d,s\}$, and $J^{P} \in {1^+}$. The composition of these…
The three pentaquark states, $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$, discovered by the LHCb Collaboration in 2019, are widely recognized as $\bar{D}^{(\ast)}\Sigma_{c}$ hadronic molecules. Together with their four…
A quark model, which reproduces the ground-state mesons and baryons, i.e., the threshold energies, is applied to the $qqqc\bar c$ configurations, where $q$ is a light quark and~$c$ the charmed quark. In the calculation, several open…
