We propose an {it{ab initio}} method to explore the nature of the newly discovered particle $X$(6900). We find that there should exist another state near the resonance at around 6.9 $mathrm{GeV}$, and the ratio of production cross sections of $X$(6900) to the undiscovered state is very sensitive to the nature of $X$(6900), whereas is almost independent of the transverse momentum and rapidity. This behavior is unlikely changed by higher order corrections. Therefore, the nature of $X$(6900) can be uncovered by experimental facts in the near future. If there is another state near $X$(6900) with cross section larger than half of that of $X$(6900), $X$(6900) should be a tetraquark state. Otherwise, it should be a molecule-like state.

Recently a novel hadronic state of mass 6.9 GeV, that decays mainly to a pair of charmonia, was observed in LHCb. The data also reveals a broader structure centered around 6490 MeV and suggests another unconfirmed resonance centered at around 7240 MeV, very near to the threshold of two doubly charmed $Xi_{cc}$ baryons. We argue in this note that these exotic hadrons are genuine tetraquarks and not molecules of charmonia. It is conjectured that they are V-baryonium tetraquarks, namely, have an inner structure of a baryonic vertex with a $cc$ diquark attached to it, which is connected by a string to an anti-baryonic vertex with a $bar c bar c$ anti-diquark. We examine these states as the analogs of the states $Psi(4360)$ and $Y(4630)$/$Psi(4660)$ which are charmonium-like tetraquarks. One way to test these claims is by searching for a significant decay of the state at 7.2 GeV into $Xi_{cc}overlineXi_{cc}$. Such a decay would be the analog of the decay of the state $Y(4630)$ into to $Lambda_coverlineLambda_c$. We further argue that there should be trajectories of both orbital and radial excited states of the $X(6900)$. We predict their masses. It is possible that a few of these states have already been seen by LHCb.
In two recent reactions by Belle producing $Dbar D$ and $Dbar D^*$ meson pairs, peaks above threshold have been measured in the differential cross sections, possibly indicating new resonances in these channels. We want to study such reactions from the point of view that the $D$ meson pairs are produced from already known or predicted resonances below threshold. Our study shows that the peak in the $Dbar D^*$ production is not likely to be caused by the X(3872) resonance, but the peak seen in $Dbar D$ invariant mass can be well described if the $Dbar D$ pair comes from the already predicted scalar X(3700) resonance.
We propose to use transverse momentum $p_T$ distribution of $J/psi$ production at the future Electron Ion Collider (EIC) to explore the production mechanism of heavy quarkonia in high energy collisions. We apply QCD and QED collinear factorization to the production of a $cbar{c}$ pair at high $p_T$, and non-relativistic QCD factorization to the hadronization of the pair to a $J/psi$. We evaluate $J/psi$ $p_T$-distribution at both leading and next-to-leading order in strong coupling, and show that production rates for various color-spin channels of a $cbar{c}$ pair in electron-hadron collisions are very different from that in hadron-hadron collisions, which provides a strong discriminative power to determine various transition rates for the pair to become a $J/psi$. We predict that the $J/psi$ produced in electron-hadron collisions is likely unpolarized, and the production is an ideal probe for gluon distribution of colliding hadron (or nucleus). We find that the $J/psi$ production is dominated by the color-octet channel, providing an excellent probe to explore the gluon medium in large nuclei at the EIC.
In the framework of a nonrelativistic potential quark model (NRPQM) for heavy quark system, we investigate the mass spectrum of the $P$-wave tetraquark states of $ccbar{c}bar{c}$ and $bbbar{b}bar{b}$. The Hamiltonian contains a linear confinement potential and parameterized one-gluon-exchange potential which includes a Coulomb type potential and spin-dependent potentials. The full-heavy tetraquark system is solved by a harmonic oscillator expansion method. With the same parameters fixed by the charmonium and bottomonium spectra, we obtained the full spectra for the $S$ and $P$-wave heavy tetraquark states. We find that the narrow structure around 6.9 GeV recently observed at LHCb in the di-$J/psi$ invariant mass spectrum can be naturally explained by the $P$-wave $ccbar{c}bar{c}$ states. Meanwhile, the observed broad structure around $6.2sim 6.8$ GeV can be consistently explained by the $S$-wave states around 6.5 GeV predicted in our previous work. Some contributions from those suppressed low-lying $P$-wave states around 6.7 GeV are also possible. Other decay channels are implied in such a scenario and they can be investigated by future experimental analysis. Considering the large discovery potential at LHCb, we give our predictions of the $P$-wave $bbbar{b}bar{b}$ states which can be searched for in the future.
We analyze two recent reactions of Belle, producing $Dbar D$ and $Dbar D^*$ states that have an enhancement of the invariant $Dbar D$, $Dbar D^*$ mass distribution close to threshold, from the point of view that they might be indicative of the existence of a hidden charm scalar and an axial vector meson states below $Dbar D$ or $Dbar D^*$ thresholds, respectively. We conclude that the data is compatible with the existing prediction of a hidden charm scalar meson with mass around 3700 MeV, though other possibilities cannot be discarded. The peak seen in the $Dbar D^*$ spectrum above threshold is, however, unlikely to be due to a threshold enhancement produced by the presence, below threshold, of the hidden charm axial vector meson X(3872).
