The physics of charm has become one of the best laboratories exposing the limitations of the naive constituent quark model and also giving hints into a more mature description of meson spectroscopy, beyond the simple quark--antiquark…
In the framework of the color-magnetic interaction, we systematically investigate the mass splittings of the $QQ\bar{Q}\bar{q}$ tetraquark states and estimated their rough masses in this work. These systems include the explicitly exotic…
We treat baryons as bound states of scalar or axialvector diquarks and a constituent quark which interact through quark exchange. We obtain fully four-dimensional wave functions for both octet and decuplet baryons as solutions of the…
The present work reviews the various aspects of the extension of the large-$N_c$ approach, as had been proposed and developed by 't Hooft, to the case of tetraquark states, which are a category of the general class of exotic states, also…
The goal of this thesis is to calculate properties of D-Mesons with QCD-Sum-Rules in order to understand the nature of D-Mesons with positive parity. The result is that such D-Mesons most probably are Mesons with a four quark rather than a…
We study tetraquarks in large $N$ QCD with heavy quarks, in the domain where non-relativistic quantum mechanics offers an adequate approximation. Within the regime of validity of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, we systematically study…

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…
The fully-heavy tetraquark states $QQ\bar{Q}\bar{Q}$ ($Q=c, b$) are systematically investigated by means of a nonrelativistic potential model. The model is based on the lattice QCD study of the two-body $Q\bar{Q}$ interaction, which…
The four--quark system $c\bar c n\bar n$ is studied in the framework of the constituent quark model. Using different types of quark-quark potentials, we solve the four--body Schr\"odinger equation by means of the hyperspherical harmonic…
As a step towards understanding multi-quark systems abundant in nature we construct a model that reproduces the binding energies of static four-quark systems. These energies have been calculated using SU(2) lattice gauge theory for a set of…
In this series of lectures we present the functional integral method for studying the superconducting pairing of quarks with the formation of the diquarks as well as the quark-antiquark pairing in dense QCD. The dynamical equations for the…
We calculate the pressure (p), the energy density (\epsilon) and the baryon density (n_B) of QCD at finite temperatures (T) and chemical potentials (\mu). The recently proposed overlap improving multi-parameter reweighting technique is used…
Flavored mesons containing quarks of unequal masses are studied. The appropriate tool is the Bethe-Salpeter formalism, but its inherent complexity leads to series of difficulties mostly related to the central role played in it by the…
The QCD quark cyclobutadiene (ring-like), a new color structure of tetraquark system, is proposed and studied in the flux tube model with multi-body confinement potential. The QCD quark cyclobutadiene and other flux tube structures of…
Recently, three new states of $\Xi_c^0$ were observed in the invariant mass spectrum of $\Lambda^+_cK^-$ by LHCb collaboration. In this work, we use a chiral quark model to investigate these three exited states with the help of Gaussian…
A number of new four-quark states containing from one to four charm or anti-charm quarks have been observed recently. Many of these new states have been discovered at the LHC. The production of these states via intrinsic charm in the proton…
Masses of the ground and excited (1P, 2S, 1D, 2P, 3S) states of the fully-heavy tetraquarks, composed of charm ($c$) and bottom ($b$) quarks and antiquarks, are calculated in the diquark-antidiquark picture within the relativistic quark…

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…
