The full version of QCD light-cone sum rule method is applied to tetraquarks containing a single heavy $b$ or $c$ quark. To this end, investigations of the strong vertices $X_{b}X_{b}\rho$ and $X_{c}X_{c}\rho$ are performed, where…
In this article, we take the $X(4140)$ as the axialvector tetraquark state with the symbolic quark structure $[sc]_S[\bar{s}\bar{c}]_A+[sc]_A[\bar{s}\bar{c}]_S$, and calculate the width of the two-body strong decay $X(4140)\rightarrow…
The $X17$ particle, discovered by Krasznahorkay et al. at ATOMKI, was recently confirmed in the $\gamma \gamma$ invariant mass spectra by Abraamyan et al. at JINR. We notice with surprise and interest that the $X17$ seems to have a…
The decay constants of the pseudoscalar mesons B and B_s are evaluated from QCD sum rules for the pseudoscalar two-point function. Recently calculated perturbative three-loop QCD corrections are incorporated into the sum rule. An analysis…

We apply the method of QCD sum rules to study the $q c \bar q \bar c$ tetraquark states with the exotic quantum number $J^{PC} = 3^{-+}$, and extract the mass of the lowest-lying state to be ${4.49^{+0.45}_{-0.41}}$ GeV. To construct the…

We use QCD sum rules to test the nature of the recently observed mesons Y(4260), Y(4350) and Y(4660), assumed to be exotic four-quark $(c\bar{c}q\bar{q})$ or $(c\bar{c}s\bar{s})$ states with $J^{PC}=1^{--}$. We work at leading order in…
In this article, we tentatively assign the $Z_c(4600)$ to be the $[dc]_P[\bar{u}\bar{c}]_A-[dc]_A[\bar{u}\bar{c}]_P$ type vector tetraquark state and study its two-body strong decays with the QCD sum rules based on solid quark-hadron…
The semileptonic decays of the open charm-bottom axial-vector tetraquark $ Z_{s}=[cs][\overline{b}\overline{s}]$ to $X(4274)\overline{l} \nu_l$, $l=e, \mu, \tau $ are explored by means of the QCD three-point sum rule method. Both $Z_{s}$…
