I develop an extension of the usual three-flavor quark model to four flavors (u, d, s and c), and discuss the classification of pentaquark states with hidden charm. This work is motivated by the recent observation of such states by the LHCb…
Inspired by the fully heavy tetraquark states reported by the LHCb, ATLAS and CMS Collaborations, we perform a systemical investigation of the low-lying fully heavy pentaquark systems composed of charm and bottom quarks (anti-quark) in the…
We investigate the hidden-charm pentaquark states with strangeness $S=-1$ ($P_{c\bar{c}s}$) within an off-shell coupled-channel approach based on effective Lagrangians that respect heavy-quark spin symmetry, SU(3) flavor symmetry, and…
Beauty tetraquark states $X(\bar b q'q'' \bar q )$ composed of $ \bar b s u \bar d$, $\bar b d s \bar u$, and $\bar b u d \bar s$, are unique that all the four valence quarks are different. Although the claim of existence of the first two…
Several experimental groups have reported evidence for baryons with flavor exotic quantum numbers that cannot be explained as $qqq$ bound states but require a minimum of five quarks -- $qqqq \bar q$. These pentaquark states include the…
In this work, we estimate the masses of tetraquark states with four different flavors by virtue of QCD sum rules, in both $b$ and $c$ sectors. We construct four $[8_c]_{\bar{b} s} \otimes [8_c]_{\bar{d} u}$ tetraquark currents with $J^P =…
Inspired by the report of D0 Collaboration on the state $X(5568)$ with four different flavors, a similar state, $ud\bar{s}\bar{b}$ is investigated in the present work. The advantage of looking for this state over the state $X(5568)$ with…
The recent abundant observations of pentaquarks and tetraquarks by high-energy accelerator facilities indicate the realization of the conjecture by Gell-Mann and Zweig, and by De Rujula, Georgi and Glashow [1-3]. We construct a…
The LHCb has discovered two new states with preferred $J^P$ quantum numbers $3/2^-$ and $5/2^+$ from $\Lambda_b$ decays. These new states can be interpreted as hidden charm pentaquarks. It has been argued that the main features of these…
In a one-boson-exchange model, we study molecular states of double-charm baryon ($\Xi_{cc}(3621)$) and a charmed meson ($D$ and $D^*$). Our model indicates that there exist two possible triple-charm molecular pentaquarks, a $\Xi_{cc}D$…
The recent observation of two hidden-charm pentaquark states by LHCb collaborations prompted us to investigate the exotic states close to the $\bar{D}\Lambda_{\rm c}$, $\bar{D}^{\ast}\Lambda_{\rm c}$, $\bar{D}\Sigma_{\rm c}$,…
We use a unitary coupled-channel model to study the $\bar{D} \Lambda_c - \bar{D} \Sigma_c$ interactions. In our calculation, SU(3) flavor symmetry is applied to determine the coupling constants. Several resonant and bound states with…
It is demonstrated that the candidate tetraquark states $Z_b(10610)$, $Z_b(10650)$, $Z_c(3900)$, and $Z_c(4025)$ are coupled channel cusp effects. The model explains in a natural way the masses and quantum numbers of the putative states and…
Inspired by the LHCb's discovery of hidden-charm pentaquarks, the anticharmed strange pentaquarks $P_{\bar c s}$ in a favor of the hadronic molecule picture are investigated from the one-boson-exchange model. Similar to the hidden-charm…
In this article, we investigate the $\bar{D}\Sigma_c$, $\bar{D}\Xi^\prime_c$, $\bar{D}\Sigma_c^*$, $\bar{D}\Xi_c^*$, $\bar{D}^{*}\Sigma_c$, $\bar{D}^{*}\Xi^\prime_c$, $\bar{D}^{*}\Sigma_c^*$ and $\bar{D}^{*}\Xi_c^*$ pentaquark molecular…
The b-factories, such as BelleII, BarBar and LHCb, emphasize the increasing importance of exotic hadron research. In this paper, we discuss the possible production of singly anti-charmed pentaquark states $\bar{c}q qqq$ from $B$ mesons in…
Recently the LHCb collaboration reported a new exotic state $T^+_{cc}$ which is conjectured to be a molecular state of $D^0D^{*+}$ (or $D^{*0}D^{+}$) theoretically. Belle Collaboration also searched for tetraquark state $X_{ccss}$ in…

The exotic state $X(5568)$ which was observed by D0 Collaboration is very likely to be a tetraquark state with four different valence quark flavors, though the existence was not confirmed by other collaborations. The possibility of such…
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 $P_c^+(4312)$, $P_c^+(4440)$,…
