The observation by BESIII and LHCb of states with hidden charm and open strangeness ($cbar c qbar s$) presents new opportunities for the development of a global model of heavy-quark exotics. Here we extend the dynamical diquark model to encompass such states, using the same values of Hamiltonian parameters previously obtained from the nonstrange and hidden-strange sectors. The large mass splitting between $Z_{cs}(4000)$ and $Z_{cs}(4220)$ suggests substantial SU(3)$_{rm flavor}$ mixing between all $J^P ! = ! 1^+$ states, while their average mass compared to that of other sectors offers a direct probe of flavor octet-singlet mixing among exotics. We also explore the inclusion of $eta$-like exchanges within the states, and find their effects to be quite limited. In addition, using the same diquark-mass parameters, we find $P_c(4312)$ and $P_{cs}(4459)$ to fit well as corresponding nonstrange and open-strange pentaquarks.
The lightest hidden-bottom tetraquarks in the dynamical diquark model fill an $S$-wave multiplet consisting of 12 isomultiplets. We predict their masses and dominant bottomonium decay channels using a simple 3-parameter Hamiltonian that captures the core fine-structure features of the model, including isospin dependence. The only experimental inputs needed are the corresponding observables for $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$. The mass of $X_b$, the bottom analogue to $X(3872)$, is highly constrained in this scheme. In addition, using lattice-calculated potentials we predict the location of the center of mass of the $P$-wave multiplet and find that $Y(10860)$ fits well but the newly discovered $Y(10750)$ does not, more plausibly being a $D$-wave bottomonium state. Using similar methods, we also examine the lowest $S$-wave multiplet of 6 $cbar c sbar s$ states, assuming as in earlier work that $X(3915)$ and $Y(4140)$ are members, and predict the masses and dominant charmonium decay modes of the other states. We again use lattice potentials to compute the centers of mass of higher multiplets, and find them to be compatible with the masses of $Y(4626)$ ($1P$) and $X(4700)$ ($2S$), respectively.
We study the fine structure in the spectrum of known and predicted negative-parity hidden-charm exotic meson states, which comprise the lowest $P$-wave multiplet in the dynamical diquark model. Starting with a form previously shown to successfully describe the $S$-wave states, we develop a 5-parameter Hamiltonian that includes spin-orbit and tensor terms. After discussing the experimental status of the observed $J^{PC} = 1^{--}$ states $Y$ with respect to masses and decay modes (classified by eigenvalues of heavy-quark spin), we note a number of inconsistencies between measurements from different experiments that complicate a unique determination of the spectrum. Outlining a variety of scenarios for interpreting the $Y$ data, we perform fits to each one, obtaining results that demonstrate differing possibilities for the $P$-wave spectra. Choosing one of these fits for illustration, we predict masses for all 28 isomultiplets in this $1P$ multiplet, compare the results to tantalizing hints in the data, and discuss the rich discovery potential for new states.
Using the dynamical diquark model, we calculate the electric-dipole radiative decay widths to $X(3872)$ of the lightest negative-parity exotic candidates, including the four $I=0$, $J^{PC} ! = ! 1^{--}$ ($Y$) states. The $O$(100--1000 keV) values obtained test the hypothesis of a common substructure shared by all of these states. We also calculate the magnetic-dipole radiative decay width for $Z_c(4020)^0 ! to ! gamma X(3872)$, and find it to be rather smaller ($<$~10 keV) than its predicted value in molecular models.
The purpose of the present study is to explore the mass spectrum of the hidden charm tetraquark states within a diquark model. Proposing that a tetraquark state is composed of a diquark and an antidiquark, the masses of all possible $[qc][bar{q}bar{c}]$, $[sc][bar{s}bar{c}]$, and $[qc][bar{s}bar{c}]$ $left([sc][bar{q}bar{c}]right)$ hidden charm tetraquark states are systematically calculated by use of an effective Hamiltonian, which contains color, spin, and flavor dependent interactions. Apart from the $X(3872)$, $Z(3900)$, $chi_{c2}(3930)$, and $X(4350)$ which are taken as input to fix the model parameters, the calculated results support that the $chi_{c0}(3860)$, $X(4020)$, $X(4050)$ are $[qc][bar{q}bar{c}]$ states with $I^GJ^{PC}=0^+0^{++}$, $1^+1^{+-}$, and $1^-2^{++}$, respectively, the $chi_{c1}(4274)$ is an $[sc][bar{s}bar{c}]$ state with $I^GJ^{PC}=0^+1^{++}$, the $X(3940)$ is a $[qc][bar{q}bar{c}]$ state with $I^GJ^{PC}=1^-0^{++}$ or $1^-1^{++}$, the $Z_{cs}(3985)^-$ is an $[sc][bar{q}bar{c}]$ state with $J^{P}=0^{+}$ or $1^+$, and the $Z_{cs}(4000)^+$ and $Z_{cs}(4220)^+$ are $[qc][bar{s}bar{c}]$ states with $J^{P}=1^{+}$. Predictions for other possible tetraquark states are also given.
The mass spectrum of hidden charm pentaquark states composed of two diquarks and an antiquark are calculated by use of an effective Hamiltonian which includes explicitly the spin, color, and flavor dependent interactions. The results show that the $P_c(4312)^+$ and $P_c(4440)^+$ states could be explained as hidden charm pentaquark states with isospin and spin-parity $IJ^P=1/2left(3/2^-right)$, the $P_c(4457)^+$ state could be explained as a hidden charm pentaquark state with $IJ^P=1/2left(5/2^-right)$, and the $P_{cs}(4459)^+$ state could be explained as a hidden charm pentaquark state with $IJ^P=0left(1/2^-right)$ or $0left(3/2^-right)$. Predications for the masses of other possible pentaquark states are also given, and the possible decay channels of these hidden charm pentaquark states are discussed.
