We conduct a systematic study of the electromagnetic properties of multiquark systems with undetermined internal structures. Motivated by the recent observation of the $T_{cc}^+$ state, we apply the light-cone version of the QCD sum rule…
We investigate a nonrelativistic model of tetraquarks, which are assumed to be compact and to consist of diquark-antidiquark pairs. We fit, for the first time, basically all currently known values for the measured masses of 45 mesons,…
We perform systematical investigations of heavy flavor tetraquark systems, including fully heavy $QQ\bar Q\bar Q$ ($Q=b,c$), doubly heavy $QQ^{(\prime)}\bar q\bar q$ ($q=u,d$), and singly heavy $Qs\bar q\bar q$ tetraquark systems, within…
We review the physics of doubly-heavy baryons $QQq$ and tetraquarks $QQ\bar q\bar q$. For the latter, the stability is reached for large enough mass ratio $M/m$, even when spin forces and color mixing are neglected. It is thus customarily…
Three-body nuclear forces are essential for explaining the properties of light nuclei with a nucleon number greater than three. Building on insights from nuclear physics, we extract the form of quark three-body interactions and demonstrate…
We systematically investigate the S-wave singly heavy tetraquark systems containing two or three strange quarks, $Qs\bar{s}\bar{s}$, $Qn\bar{s}\bar{s}$ and $Qs\bar{s}\bar{n}\left( Q=c,b,n=u,d \right) $, within the constituent quark…
In this paper, we study four-body systems consisting of diquark antidiquark, and we analyze diquark-antidiquark in the framework of a two body (pseudo point) problem. We solve Lippman Schwinger equation numerically for charm diquark…
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 $cc\bar{c}\bar{q}$, $cc\bar{b}\bar{q}$, $bc\bar{b}\bar{q}$,…
In this work, a color structure dependent flip-flop potential is developed for the two quarks and two antiquarks system. Then, this potential is applied to a microscopic quark model which, by integrating the internal degrees of freedom, is…
A menage a trois is very different from an ordinary family. Similarly, exotic hadrons with both qq and qbar q pairs have important color-space correlations that are completely absent in ordinary mesons and baryons. The presence of both…
The $S$-wave eigenstates of tetraquarks of type $s u \bar d \bar b$ with J$^{P}$ = 0$^{+}$, 1$^{+}$ and 2$^{+}$ are studied within a simple quark model with chromomagnetic interaction and effective quark masses extracted from meson and…
The LHCb Collaboration announced in 2021 the discovery of a new tetraquark-like state, named $T_{cc}^+$, with minimum quark content $cc\bar u\bar d$, close to the $D^0D^{*+}$ threshold. This has motivated countless theoretical works trying…
We investigate four-quark systems consisting of two heavy anti-bottom quarks and two light up/down quarks. We propose to solve a coupled Schr\"odinger equation for the anti-bottom-anti-bottom separation using potentials computed via lattice…
In this article, we study the ground-state mass of full-heavy tetraquarks $cc\bar c\bar c$ and $bb\bar b \bar b$ with solving the nonrelativistic four-body systems. The flux-tube configurations, the tetraquark four-body potential butterfly,…
In the framework of QCD Sum Rules we investigate the $q q^\prime \bar{Q} \bar{Q}$ tetraquark structure with quantum number $J^P = 1^+$, which are embedded in two types of configurations, the $[8_c]_{q \bar{Q}} \otimes [8_c]_{q^\prime…

We combine lattice QCD results for the potential of two static antiquarks in the presence of two quarks $q q$ of finite mass and quark model techniques to study possibly existing $q q \bar{b} \bar{b}$ tetraquarks. While there is strong…
We address $q q \bar Q\bar Q$ exotic tetraquark bound states and resonances with a fully unitarized and microscopic quark model. We propose a triple string flip-flop potential, inspired in lattice QCD tetraquarks static potentials and…
Treating the $X(4140)$ as a compact $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ state and using its mass as a reference scale, we systematically estimate the masses of doubly heavy tetraquark states $QQ\bar{q}\bar{q}$ where $Q=c,b$ and $q=u,d,s$.…
