In this work, the multiquark approach is used to analyze the spectroscopy of hidden-charm pentaquark states, motivated by recent discoveries at the LHCb collaboration. Using the SU(3) flavor representation, pentaquarks having $J^P = 5/2^-$…
Since the discovery of the $T_{cc}$ double-charm tetaquark by the LHCb collaboration, the field of the theoretical research on heavy quarks has advanced rapidly, with increasing interest in exploring the light quark sector. In this study,…
We analyse the deuteron-like $T^+_{cc}$ state observed by the LHCb Collaboration from the perspective of the quark clustering. The $T^+_{cc}$ state implies the possible existence of other compact doubly heavy tetraquark states.
We present a unified framework for heavy tetraquark and pentaquark systems within the quark-diquark effective mass formalism, extending its baryon-calibrated construction to multiquark states without introducing sector-dependent parameters.…
We carry out a systematic study of exotic $QQ^\prime \bar q\bar q$ four-quark states containing distinguishable heavy flavors, $b$ and $c$. Different generic constituent models are explored in an attempt to extract general conclusions. The…
On the basis of the Bethe-Salpeter Equation we developed a covariant constituent quark model, with confinement implemented by a linear potential and an instanton induced interaction explaining mass splittings and mixing of pseudoscalar…
The phenomenology of the so-called X, Y and Z hadronic resonances is hard to reconcile with standard charmonium or bottomonium interpretations. It has been suggested that some of these new hadrons can possibly be described as tightly bound…
The discovery of three pentaquark peaks -- the $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ -- by the LHCb collaboration has a series of interesting consequences for hadron spectroscopy. If these hidden-charm objects are indeed hadronic…
We study the quark-hadron phase transition by using a three flavor Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with the Polyakov loop at zero chemical potential, extending our previous work with two flavor model. We show that the equation of state at low…
LHCb Collaboration has recently announced the observation of a doubly charmed tetraquark $T_{cc \bar{u} \bar{d}}^+$ state with spin parity $J^P = 1^+$. This exotic state can be explained as a molecular state with small binding energy.…
QCD-motivated models for hadrons predict an assortment of "exotic" hadrons that have structures that are more complex then the quark-antiquark mesons and three-quark baryons of the original quark-parton model. These include pentaquark…
To obtain an exact solution of a four-body system containing two quarks and two antiquarks interacting through two-body terms is a cumbersome task that has been tackled with more or less success during the last decades. We present an exact…
We study the hadron-quark phase transition with the finite size effects at finite temperature. For the hadron phase, we adopt a realistic equation of state in the framework of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock theory including hyperons. The…
We introduce a two-flavor quark-meson-diquark model for two-color QCD and its extensions to include gauge-field dynamics as described by the Polakov loop. Grand potential and phase structure are being studied both in mean-field…
We study pentaquark states of both light $q^4\bar q$ and hidden heavy $q^3 Q\bar Q$ (q = u,d,s quark in SU(3) flavor symmetry; Q = c, b quark) systems with a general group theory approach in the constituent quark model, and the spectrum of…
States beyond those expected in the simple constituent quark model are now emerging. I focus on the scalar glueball and its mixing with states in the $q\bar{q}$ nonet, and also on correlations in Strong QCD that may form diquarks and seed…
Inspired by the observation of hidden-charm pentaquark $P_c$ and $P_{cs}$ states by the LHCb Collaboration, we explore the $qqc\bar{c}c$ ($q~=~u$ or $d$) pentaquark systems in the quark delocalization color screening model. The interaction…
In this paper, we investigate the hidden-charm pentaquarks as $\bar{D}^{(\ast)}\Lambda_{\rm c}$ and $\bar{D}^{(\ast)}\Sigma^{(\ast)}_{\rm c}$ molecules coupled to the five-quark states. Furthermore, we extend our calculations to the…
The $J/\psi p$ signals at 4380 MeV and 4450 MeV which were seen by the LHCb collaboration in the decay $\Lambda^0_b\to K^-J/\psi p$ are discussed following the hypothesis of the existence of diquark-diquark-antiquark composite states. The…
Recently the LHCb collaboration reported a new exotic state $T^+_{cc}$ which possesses $cc\bar u\bar d$ flavor structure. Since its mass is very close to the threshold of $D^0D^{*+}$ (or $D^{*0}D^{+}$) and its width is very narrow, it is…
