$Z_c^+(3900)$ decay width in QCD sum rules


Abstract in English

We identify the recently observed charmonium-like structure $Z_c^pm(3900)$ as the charged partner of the X(3872) state. Using standard techniques of QCD sum rules, we evaluate the three-point function and extract the coupling constants of the $Z_c , J/psi , pi^+$ and $Z_c , eta_c , rho^+$ vertices and the corresponding decay widths in these channels. The good agreement with the experimental data gives support to the tetraquark picture of this state.
