Predictions of the hidden-charm molecular states with four-quark component

In this work, we study the $T\bar{T}$-type molecular systems systematically via one pion exchange model, where $T$ denotes the narrow $J^P=1^+$ $D_1$ meson or $2^+$ $D_2^*$ meson and $\bar{T}$ is its antiparticle. With the effective potentials, we try to find the bound state solutions of the corresponding systems, which provide crucial information of whether there exist the $T\bar{T}$-type molecular states. According to our analysis, we predict some $T\bar{T}$-type molecular states which may be accessible at future experiments like LHCb and forthcoming BelleII.Comment: 13 pages, 2 figures and 8 tables.

A review of the open charm and open bottom systems

Since the discovery of the first charmed meson in 1976, many open-charm and open-bottom hadrons were observed. In 2003 two narrow charm-strange states $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ were discovered by the BaBar and CLEO Collaborations, respectively. After that, more excited heavy hadrons were reported. In this work, we review the experimental and theoretical progress in this field.Comment: Review accepted by Reports on Progress in Physics, 161 pages, 53 figures, 23 tables, more references added and review on heavy baryons adde

Triply heavy tetraquark states with the QQQˉqˉQQ\bar{Q}\bar{q} configuration

In the framework of the color-magnetic interaction, we systematically investigate the mass splittings of the $QQ\bar{Q}\bar{q}$ tetraquark states and estimated their rough masses in this work. These systems include the explicitly exotic states $cc\bar{b}\bar{q}$ and $bb\bar{c}\bar{q}$ and the hidden exotic states $cc\bar{c}\bar{q}$, $cb\bar{b}\bar{q}$, $bc\bar{c}\bar{q}$, and $bb\bar{b}\bar{q}$. If a state around the estimated mass region could be observed, its nature as a genuine tetraquark is favored. The strong decay patterns shown here will be helpful to the experimental search for these exotic states.Comment: 14 pages, 3 figures and 9 tables. Accepted by Eur. Phys. J.
