We apply the extended local hidden gauge formalism to study the meson-meson interactions with the quark constituents $cc\bar c\bar c$, $cc\bar c\bar b/\bar c\bar c cb$, $cc\bar b\bar b/\bar c\bar c bb$, $bb\bar c\bar b/\bar b\bar b cb$, and…

This is the second of two reports cataloging the principal signatures of electroweak and flavor dynamics at $\pbarp$ and $pp$ colliders. Here, we complete our overview of technicolor with a discussion of signatures specific to…
We explore the consequences of heavy flavour, heavy quark spin and heavy antiquark-diquark symmetries for hadronic molecules within an effective field theory framework.. Owing to heavy antiquark-diquark symmetry, the doubly heavy baryons…
A symmetry-preserving treatment of a vector$\times$vector contact interaction is used to compute spectra of ground-state $J^P = 0^\pm, 1^\pm$ $(f\bar g)$ mesons, their partner diquark correlations, and $J^P=1/2^\pm, 3/2^\pm$ $(fgh)$…

The newly observed $\Theta^+$ resonance is believed to be a pentaquark with the constituent quarks $uudd\bar s$. There are a few options for the constituent quark structure. Some advocate diquark-diquark-antiquark $(ud)$-$(ud)$-$\bar s$…

Multiquarks can have two-hadron components and hidden-color components in their wave functions. The presence of two-hadron components in multiquarks introduces a potential source of confusion, particularly with respect to their resemblance…
Spectrum of the doubly heavy tetraquarks, $bb\bar q\bar q$, is studied in a constituent quark model. Four-body problem is solved in a variational method where the real scaling technique is used to identify resonant states above the…
Properties of single heavy flavor baryons in a non relativistic potential model with colour coulomb plus power law confinement potential have been studied. The ground state masses of single heavy baryons and the mass difference between the…
We study light scalar mesons with particular focus on the a_0(980) using lattice QCD with 2+1+1 dynamical quark flavors. To investigate the structure of these scalar mesons and to identify, whether a sizeable tetraquark component is…
Motivated by the observation of the doubly charmed tetraquark $T_{cc}(3875)^+$, we present a systematic study of double heavy tetraquarks ($T_{QQ'\bar{q}\bar{q}'}$) using heavy antiquark-diquark symmetry (HADS) within a constituent quark…
We study the $uuddss$ multiquark within a constituent quark model framework, solving the corresponding nonrelativistic Schrodinger equation by means of a diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) method. The total wavefunction is written as the product…
In the diquark-diantiquark composition, we study the masses of hidden charm tetraquark systems ($cq\bar{c}\bar{q}$, $cs\bar{c}\bar{s}$ and $cs\bar{c}\bar{q}$) using a linear confinement potential. In this study, we have factorized the four…
The molecular picture and the constituent-quark model of exotic hadrons are reviewed, with application to the states recently discovered in the hidden-charm and hidden beauty sectors, and to other configurations.
The conjecture that several recently observed mesons have a structure, which is not dominated by an ordinary quark-antiquark pair, but by a four-quark structure, is being actively investigated both theoretical and experimentally. Such a…
The energy-momentum tensor form factors furnish information on the mechanics of the proton. It is essential to compute the generalized isovector-vector form factors to examine the flavor structure of the energy-momentum tensor form factors.…
A central question in exotic-hadron physics is their internal structure whether these states are loosely bound hadronic molecules or compact multiquark configurations. To shed light on this issue, we develop a model that incorporates mixing…
We determine the mass of tetraquark bound states from a coupled system of covariant Bethe-Salpeter equations. Similar in spirit to the quark-diquark model of the nucleon, we approximate the full four-body equation for the tetraquark by a…
