We explore molecular states of two open heavy-quark mesons (Q qbar)-(qbar Q) in a quark-based model in terms of a four-body non-relativistic Hamiltonian with pairwise effective interactions. Molecular states are found in the combinations of…
Inspired by the experimentally reported $T_{c\bar{s}}(2900)$ exotic states, the $S$-wave $\bar{q}q\bar{s}Q$ $(q=u,\,d;\,Q=c,\,b)$ tetraquarks, with spin-parity $J^P=0^+$, $1^+$ and $2^+$, in both isoscalar and isovector sectors are…
We systematically investigate the stability of the doubly heavy tetraquark states $[QQ][\bar{q}\bar{q}]$ ($Q=c$ and $b$, $q=u$, $d$ and $s$) within the framework of the color flux-tube model involving a multibody confinement potential,…
We give heavy quark-diquark symmetry predictions for doubly heavy baryons and tetraquarks in light of the recent discovery of the $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ by LHCb. For five excited doubly charm baryons that are predicted to lie below the $\Lambda_c…
We apply the Chiral Quark-Soliton Model used previously to describe baryons with one heavy quark to the case of heavy tetraquarks. We argue, that the model is insenstive to the nature of the heavy object bound by the soliton, i.e. to its…
A systematic investigation of $S$-wave triply heavy tetraquark systems with quark content $\bar{b}c\bar{q}c$ and $\bar{c}b\bar{q}b$ $(q = u,\,d,\,s)$, spin-parity quantum numbers $J^P=0^+$, $1^+$, $2^+$ and isospin $I=0,\,\frac{1}{2}$, is…
We consider the relative decay rates of B0 and Bs mesons into a J\psi\ plus a light scalar meson either the f0(500) (\sigma) or the f0(980). We show that it is possible to distinguish between the quark content of the scalars being…
Scalar mesons are a key expression of the strong coupling regime of QCD. How those with $I_3=0$ couple to two photons supplies important information about which is transiently ${\bar q}q$ or ${\bar {qq}} qq$ or multi-meson molecule or…
For many decades after the invention of the quark model in 1964 there was no evidence that hadrons are formed from anything other than the simplest pairings of quarks and antiquarks, mesons being formed of a quark-antiquark pair and baryons…
Considering four-point correlation functions of color-singlet quark bilinears, we investigate, in the large-$N_{\mathrm{c}}$ limit of QCD, the subleading diagrams that involve, in the $s$-channel of meson-meson scattering amplitudes,…
In a recent paper by N. Santowsky et al. [Phys. Rev. D 102, 056014 (2020)], covariant coupled equations were derived to describe a tetraquark in terms of a mix of four-quark states $2q 2\bar{q}$ and two-quark states $q\bar{q}$. These…
The existence of full heavy dibaryons $\Omega_{ccc}\Omega_{bbb}$, $\Omega_{ccc}\Omega_{ccc}$ and $\Omega_{bbb}\Omega_{bbb}$ with $J=0,~1,~2,~3$ and $P=\pm1$ are investigated in the framework of a constituent quark model. The dibaryon…
Scattering of two mesons is considered in the framework of two-dimensional QCD in the large-$N_c^{}$ limit with four different quark flavors. The scattering takes place through two coupled channels, corresponding to direct and…
Properties of doubly charged scalar tetraquarks $bb\overline{c}\overline{c}$ are investigated in the framework of the QCD sum rule method. We model them as diquark-antidiquark states $X_{\mathrm{1}}$ and $X_{\mathrm{2}}$ built of…
Why do we see certain types of strongly interacting elementary particles and not others? This question was posed over 50 years ago in the context of the quark model. M. Gell-Mann and G. Zweig proposed that the known mesons were $q \bar q$…
We continue the investigation of mesons in terms of the spectral integral equation initiated before [hep-ph/0510410, hep-ph/0511005] for the $b\bar b$ and $c\bar c$ systems: in this paper we consider the light-quark ($u, d,s$) mesons with…
Masses of the ground state light tetraquarks are dynamically calculated in the framework of the relativistic diquark-antidiquark picture. The internal structure of the diquark is taken into account by calculating the form factor of the…
