Search for $bbbar{b}bar{b}$ tetraquark decays in 4 muons, $B^{+} B^{-}$, $B^0 bar{B}^0$ and $B_s^0 bar{B}_s^0$ channels at LHC

We perform a quantitative analysis of the $bbbar{b}bar{b}$ tetraquark decays into hidden- and open-bottom mesons and calculate, for the first time, the $bbbar{b}bar{b}$ tetraquark total decay width. On the basis of our results, we propose the $bbbar{b}bar{b} to B^{+} B^{-} (B^0 bar{B}^0) (B_s^0 bar{B}_s^0) to l^{+} l^{-}+text{X}$ decays as the most suitable channels to observe the $bbbar{b}bar{b}$ tetraquark states, since the calculated two-lepton cross section upper limit, $simeq 39 $ fb, is so large as to be potentially detectable with the 2018 LHCb sensitivity, paving the way to the observation of the $bbbar{b}bar{b}$ tetraquark in the future LHCb upgrade. The $4mu$ signal for the ground state, $J^{PC}=0^{++}$, is likely to be too small even for the upgraded LHCb, but it may not be hopeless for the $J^{PC}=2^{++}$ fully-bottom state.
