In this article, we study the axialvector-diquark-axialvector-antidiquark ($AA$) type and scalar-diquark-scalar-antidiquark ($SS$) type fully open flavor $cs\bar{u}\bar{d}$ tetraquark states with the spin-parity $J^P={0}^+$ via the QCD sum…
The recent reported charmed-strange resonance at 2.32 GeV/c suggests a possible multiquark state. Three types of multiquark bound states are reviewed. A previous model-independent variational approach considers a tetraquark with two heavy…
In the past years there has been a revival of hadron spectroscopy. Many interesting new hadron states were discovered experimentally, some of which do not fit easily into the quark model. This situation motivated a vigorous theoretical…
The pole counting rule is a powerful and model-independent method to distinguish a confining state from a hadronic molecule. It has been applied to the explorations of $X(6900)$, $X_1(2900)$ as well as $Z_c(3900)$, $X(3872)$, $X(4660)$,…
In this article, we study the $Z_c(3900)$ with the QCD sum rules in details by including the two-particle scattering state contributions and nonlocal effects between the diquark and antidiquark constituents. The two-particle scattering…
We use the QCD sum rules to evaluate the mass of a possible scalar mesonic state that couples to a molecular $D_{s}^{*}\bar{D}_s^{*}$ current. We find a mass $m_{D_s^*D_s^*}=(4.14\pm 0.09)$ GeV, which is in a excellent agreement with the…
The search for the compact limit of multi-quark states is a challenging issue. Within the framework of the MIT bag model, we propose an effective limit bag radius of $R_{c} = 5.615 \, \text{GeV}^{-1}$(or $1.11 \, \text{fm}$) for bound…
Recent progress in experimental facilities, together with larger data samples and more refined analysis strategies has enabled the observation of many exotic hadronic states, adding new members to the hadron spectrum. Each newly reported…
An introduction to the method of QCD sum rules is given for those who want to learn how to use this method. Furthermore, we discuss various applications of sum rules, from the determination of quark masses to the calculation of hadronic…
In this article, we study the light-flavor scalar and axial-vector diquark states in the vacuum and in the nuclear matter using the QCD sum rules in an systematic way, and make reasonable predictions for their masses in the vacuum and in…
Assuming the newly observed resonant structures X(1910), X(2200), and X(2350) as $\omega\omega$, $\omega\phi$, and $\phi\phi$ molecular states respectively, we compute their mass values in the framework of QCD sum rules. The numerical…
We discuss the details of calculating hadron properties from the OPE for correlators of quark currents in QCD, which constitutes the basis of the method of QCD sum rules. The main emphasis is laid on gaining control over the systematic…
Based on a $3\times3$ mass matrix describing the mixing of the scalar states $f_0(1370)$, $f_0(1500)$ and $f_0(1710)$, the hadronic decays of the three states are investigated. Taking into account the two possible assumptions concerning the…
Recently there has been considerable interest in the subject of molecules, which are weakly bound states of hadron pairs. The question of the existence of molecules is closely related to the more general problem of the determination of low…
Regularities in the hadron interaction energies are used to obtain formulas relating the masses of ground-state hadrons, most of which contain heavy quarks. Inputs are the constituent quark model, the Feynman-Hellmann theorem, and the…
We present a comprehensive QCD sum rules analysis at next-to-leading order for all types of $J^P=0^{+}$ four-quark states composed of $u$, $d$, and $s$ quarks. The eigenvectors of the renormalization matrix are chosen to be the renormalized…
Theoretical investigations of the pentaquark states which were recently discovered provide important information on their nature and structure. It is necessary to study the spectroscopic parameters like masses and residues of particles…
Constituting the largest subset of multiquark states so far observed by experiment, tetraquark mesons carrying overall quark flavour quantum numbers identical to those of the (conventional) quark-antiquark mesons necessitate their…
In this article, with the assumption of explicit isospin violation arising from the $f_0(980)-a_0(980)$ mixing, we take the point of view that the scalar mesons $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ have both strange and non-strange quark-antiquark…
The vast majority of mesons can be understood as quark-antiquark states. Yet, various other possibilities exists: glueballs (bound-state of gluons), hybrids (quark-antiquark plus gluon), and four-quark states (either as diquark-antidiquark…
