With the spin rearrangement, we have performed a comprehensive investigation of the decay patterns of the S-wave tetraquarks and P-wave tetraquarks where the P-wave excitation exists either between the diquark and anti-diquark pair or inside the diquark. Especially, we compare the decay patterns of $Y(4260)$ with different inner structures such as the conventional charmonium, the molecule, the P-wave tetraquark and the hybrid charmonium. We notice the $J/psi pipi$ mode is suppressed in the heavy quark symmetry limit if $Y(4260)$ is a molecular state. Moreover the hybrid charmonium and hidden-charm tetraquark have very similar decay patterns. Both of them decay into the $J/psi pipi$ and open charm modes easily. We also discuss the decay patterns of $X(3872)$, $Y(4360)$, and several charged states such as $Z_c(4020)$. The $h_cpi^{pm}$ decay mode disfavors the tetraquark assumption of $Z_c(4020)$.

On March 26th, 2019, at the Rencontres de Moriond QCD conference, the LHCb Collaboration reported the observation of three new pentaquarks, namely $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$, which are consistent with the loosely bound molecular hidden-charm pentaquark states composed of an S-wave charmed baryon $Sigma_c$ and an S-wave anti-charmed meson ($bar{D}, bar{D}^*$). In this work, we present a direct calculation by the one-boson-exchange (OBE) model and demonstrate explicitly that the $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$ and $P_c(4457)$ do correspond to the loosely bound $Sigma_cbar{D}$ with $(I=1/2,J^P=1/2^-)$, $Sigma_cbar{D}^*$ with $(I=1/2,J^P=1/2^-)$ and $Sigma_cbar{D}^*$ with $(I=1/2,J^P=3/2^-)$, respectively.
We study strong decays of the possible fully-charm tetraquarks recently observed by LHCb, and calculate their relative branching ratios through the Fierz rearrangement. Together with our previous QCD sum rule study [Phys. Lett. B 773, 247 (2017)], our results suggest that the broad structure around $6.2$-$6.8$ GeV can be interpreted as an $S$-wave $ccbar c bar c$ tetraquark state with $J^{PC} = 0^{++}$ or $2^{++}$, and the narrow structure around 6.9 GeV can be interpreted as a $P$-wave one with $J^{PC} = 0^{-+}$ or $1^{-+}$. These structures were observed in the di-$J/psi$ invariant mass spectrum, and we propose to confirm them in the di-$eta_c$, $J/psi h_c$, $eta_c chi_{c0}$, and $eta_c chi_{c1}$ channels. We also propose to search for their partner states having the negative charge-conjugation parity in the $J/psi eta_c$, $J/psi chi_{c0}$, $J/psi chi_{c1}$, and $eta_c h_c$ channels.
Recently, the LHCb Collaboration reported three $P_c$ states in the ${J/psi}p$ channel. We systematically study the mass spectrum of the hidden charm pentaquark in the framework of an extended chromomagnetic model. For the $nnncbar{c}$ pentaquark with $I=1/2$, we find that (i) the lowest state is $P_{c}(4327.0,1/2,1/2^{-})$ [We use $P_{c}(m,I,J^{P})$ to denote the $nnncbar{c}$ pentaquark], which corresponds to the $P_{c}(4312)$. Its dominant decay mode is $Lambda_{c}bar{D}^{*}$. (ii) We find two states in the vicinity of $P_{c}(4380)$. The first one is $P_{c}(4367.4,1/2,3/2^{-})$ and decays dominantly to $N{J/psi}$ and $Lambda_{c}bar{D}^{*}$. The other one is $P_{c}(4372.4,1/2,1/2^{-})$. Its dominant decay mode is $Lambda_{c}bar{D}$, and its partial decay width of $Neta_{c}$ channel is comparable to that of $N{J/psi}$. (iii) In higher mass region, we find $P_{c}(4476.3,1/2,3/2^{-})$ and $P_{c}(4480.9,1/2,1/2^{-})$, which correspond to $P_{c}(4440)$ and $P_{c}(4457)$. In the open charm channels, both of them decay dominantly to the $Lambda_{c}bar{D}^{*}$. (iv) We predict two states above $4.5~text{GeV}$, namely $P_{c}(4524.5,1/2,3/2^{-})$ and $P_{c}(4546.0,1/2,5/2^{-})$. The masses of the $nnncbar{c}$ state with $I=3/2$ are all over $4.6~text{GeV}$. Moreover, we use the model to explore the $nnscbar{c}$, $ssncbar{c}$ and $ssscbar{c}$ pentaquark states.
Alerted by the recent LHCb discovery of exotic hadrons in the range (6.2 -- 6.9) GeV, we present new results for the doubly-hidden scalar heavy $(bar QQ) (Qbar Q)$ charm and beauty molecules using the inverse Laplace transform sum rule (LSR) within stability criteria and including the Next-to-Leading Order (NLO) factorized perturbative and $langle G^3rangle$ gluon condensate corrections. We also critically revisit and improve existing Lowest Order (LO) QCD spectral sum rules (QSSR) estimates of the $({ bar Q bar Q})(QQ)$ tetraquarks analogous states. In the example of the anti-scalar-scalar molecule, we separate explicitly the contributions of the factorized and non-factorized contributions to LO of perturbative QCD and to the $langlealpha_sG^2rangle$ gluon condensate contributions in order to disprove some criticisms on the (mis)uses of the sum rules for four-quark currents. We also re-emphasize the importance to include PT radiative corrections for heavy quark sum rules in order to justify the (ad hoc) definition and value of the heavy quark mass used frequently at LO in the literature. Our LSR results for tetraquark masses summarized in Table II are compared with the ones from ratio of moments (MOM) at NLO and results from LSR and ratios of MOM at LO (Table IV). The LHCb broad structure around (6.2 --6.7) GeV can be described by the $overline{eta}_{c}{eta}_{c}$, $overline{J/psi}{J/psi}$ and $overline{chi}_{c1}{chi}_{c1}$ molecules or/and their analogue tetraquark scalar-scalar, axial-axial and vector-vector lowest mass ground states. The peak at (6.8--6.9) GeV can be likely due to a $overline{chi}_{c0}{chi}_{c0}$ molecule or/and a pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar tetraquark state. Similar analysis is done for the scalar beauty states whose masses are found to be above the $overlineeta_beta_b$ and $overlineUpsilon(1S)Upsilon(1S)$ thresholds.
In this study, we investigate the discovery potential of double-charm tetraquarks $T^{{cc}}_{[bar{q}bar{q}]}$. We find that their production cross sections at the LHCb with $sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV reach $mathcal{O}(10^4)$ pb, which indicates that the LHCb has collected $mathcal{O}(10^8)$ such particles. Through the decay channels of $T^{{cc}}_{[bar{u}bar{d}]}to D^{+}K^{-}pi^{+}$ or $D^0D^+gamma$ (if stable) or $T^{{cc}}_{[bar{u}bar{d}]}to D^0D^{*+}to D^0D^0pi^+$ (if unstable), it is highly expected that they get discovered at the LHCb in the near future. We also discuss the productions and decays of the double-charm tetraquarks at future Tera-$Z$ factories.
