Heavy-flavored tetraquark states with the QQQ¯Q¯ configuration

Abstract: In the framework of the color-magnetic interaction, we systematically investigate the mass spectrum of the tetraquark states composed of four heavy quarks with the QQQQ configuration in this work. We also show their strong decay patterns. Stable or narrow states in the bbbc and bcbc systems are found to be possible. We hope the studies shall be helpful to the experimental search for heavy-full exotic tetraquark states.

“…If it does, what are their masses and decay properties? Recently, this debate has given rise to several studies within different approaches, including the constituent quark and diquark models [45][46][47][48], chiral quark model [49], chromo-electric potential model [50], and QCD sum rules [51,52]. All of these predict the existence of fullyheavy (bottom) tetraquarks, except for Ref.…”

“…We have explored various tetraquark configurations in a model with the color-magnetic interaction, Q QQQ in [60], Q QQq in [61], and cscs in [62]. A general feature for the mass spectra of these systems is that both the lightest and the heaviest states are those with J P = 0 + .…”

“…We will again adopt the framework of the simple color-magnetic interaction, although it is not a dynamical model. Recently, we have systematically applied it to tetraquark and pentaquark states in order to understand the nature of the observed exotic hadrons and to predict exotic phenomena [60][61][62][63]. Here, we calculate the mass splittings of the tetraquark states with the qqQQ configuration and estimate their mass spectrum, with which we further discuss their decay patterns.…”

“…Some aspects of slow-roll inflation with non-minimal kinetic coupling have been analyzed in [58,59,60,61,62,63]. For a sample papers devoted to the study of slow-roll inflation in the context of Gauss-Bonnet (GB) coupling see [64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77]. This paper is dedicated to the study of the slow-roll inflation in the scalar-tensor model with non-minimal kinetic coupling to the Einstein tensor and coupling of the scalar field to the Gauss-Bonnet 4-dimensional invariant.…”
