The resonances, containing cc plus ss (or light q q) quarks in the mass region (3900 − 4700) MeV, are analyzed in the relativistic strong coupling theory, with and without channel coupling phenomena. The conventional charmonium spectrum is presented, being calculated with the relativistic string Hamiltonian, which does not contain fitting parameters, while for high excitations the universal flattened confining potential is used. It is shown that X(4274), X(4500), X(4700) can be identified as 3 3 P 1 , 4 3 P 0 , 5 3 P 0 states. The exotic states are considered using the coupled-channel (recoupling) theory, when two mesons m 1 , m 2 transfer into another two mesons m 3 , m 4 and back (infinite number of times), creating the four-quark systems. The resonances X(3875), X(3915), Z cs (3985), X(4140) can be explained in this way as the exotic four-quark states in the S-wave decay channels.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
