Exotic fully-heavy $Qbar QQbar Q$ tetraquark states in $mathbf{8}_{[Qbar{Q}]}otimes mathbf{8}_{[Qbar{Q}]}$ color configuration

We have systematically calculated the mass spectra for S-wave and P-wave fully-charm $cbar{c}cbar{c}$ and fully-bottom $bbar{b}bbar{b}$ tetraquark states in the $mathbf{8}_{[Qbar{Q}]}otimes mathbf{8}_{[Qbar{Q}]}$ color configuration, by using the moment QCD sum rule method. The masses for the fully-charm $cbar ccbar c$ tetraquark states are predicted about $6.3-6.5$ GeV for S-wave channels and $7.0-7.2$ GeV for P-wave channels. These results suggest the possibility that there are some $mathbf{8}_{[cbar{c}]}otimes mathbf{8}_{[cbar{c}]}$ components in LHCbs di-$J/psi$ structures. For the fully-bottom $bbar{b}bbar{b}$ system, their masses are calculated around 18.2 GeV for S-wave tetraquark states while 18.4-18.6 GeV for P-wave ones, which are below the $eta_beta_b$ and $Upsilon(1S)Upsilon(1S)$ two-meson decay thresholds.

Investigation of the stability for fully-heavy $bcbar{b}bar{c}$ tetraquark states

We study the existence of fully-heavy hidden-flavor $bcbar{b}bar{c}$ tetraquark states with various $J^{PC}=0^{pm+}, 0^{--},1^{pmpm}, 2^{++}$, by using the moment QCD sum rule method augmented by fundamental inequalities. Using the moment sum rule analyses, our calculation shows that the masses for the S-wave positive parity $bcbar{b}bar{c}$ tetraquark states are about $12.2-12.4$ GeV in both $[mathbf{bar{3}_c}]_{bc}otimes[mathbf{3_c}]_{bar{b}bar{c}}$ and $[mathbf{6_c}]_{bc}otimes[mathbf{bar{6}_c}]_{bar{b}bar{c}}$ color configuration channels. Except for two $0^{++}$ states, such results are below the thresholds $T_{eta_ceta_b}/T_{Upsilonpsi}$ and $T_{B_cB_c}$, implying that these S-wave positive parity $bcbar{b}bar{c}$ tetraquark states are probably stable against the strong interaction. For the P-wave negative parity $bcbar{b}bar{c}$ tetraquarks, their masses in the $[mathbf{bar{3}_c}]_{bc}otimes[mathbf{3_c}]_{bar{b}bar{c}}$ channel are around $12.9-13.2$ GeV, while a bit higher in the $[mathbf{6_c}]_{bc}otimes[mathbf{bar{6}_c}]_{bar{b}bar{c}}$ channel. They can decay into the $cbar c+bbar b$ and $cbar b+bbar c$ final states via the spontaneous dissociation mechanism, including the $J/psiUpsilon$, $eta_cUpsilon$, $J/psieta_b$, $B_c^+B_c^-$ channels.
