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 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 produce the first numerical predictions of the dynamical diquark model of multiquark exotic hadrons. Using Born-Oppenheimer potentials calculated numerically on the lattice, we solve coupled and uncoupled systems of Schroedinger equations to obtain mass eigenvalues for multiplets of states that are, at this stage, degenerate in spin and isospin. Assuming reasonable values for these fine-structure splittings, we obtain a series of bands of exotic states with a common parity eigenvalue that agree well with the experimentally observed charmoniumlike states, and we predict a number of other unobserved states. In particular, the most suitable fit to known pentaquark states predicts states below the charmonium-plus-nucleon threshold. Finally, we examine the strictest form of Born-Oppenheimer decay selection rules for exotics and, finding them to fail badly, we propose a resolution by relaxing the constraint that exotics must occur as heavy-quark spin-symmetry eigenstates.
We incorporate fine-structure corrections into the dynamical diquark model of multiquark exotic hadrons. These improvements include effects due to finite diquark size, spin-spin couplings within the diquarks, and most significantly, isospin-dependent couplings in the form of pionlike exchanges assumed to occur between the light quarks within the diquarks. Using a simplified two-parameter interaction Hamiltonian, we obtain fits in which the isoscalar $J^{PC} = 1^{++}$ state---identified as the $X(3872)$---appears naturally as the lightest exotic (including all states that are predicted by the model but have not yet been observed), while the $Z_c(3900)$ and $Z_c(4020)$ decay predominantly to $J/psi$ and $eta_c$, respectively, in accord with experiment. We explore implications of this model for the excited tetraquark multiplets and the pentaquarks.
We develop the spectroscopy of $cbar c cbar c$ and other all-heavy tetraquark states in the dynamical diquark model. In the most minimal form of the model (e.g., each diquark appears only in the color-triplet combination; the non-orbital spin couplings connect only quarks within each diquark), the spectroscopy is extremely simple. Namely, the $S$-wave multiplets contain precisely 3 degenerate states ($0^{++}$, $1^{+-}$, $2^{++}$) and the 7 $P$-wave states satisfy an equal-spacing rule when the tensor coupling is negligible. When comparing numerically to the recent LHCb results, we find the best interpretation is assigning $X(6900)$ to the $2S$ multiplet, while a lower state suggested at about $6740$ MeV fits well with the members of the $1P$ multiplet. We also predict the location of other multiplets ($1S$, $1D$, etc.) and discuss the significance of the $cc$ open-flavor threshold.
