The phenomenology of the so-called X, Y and Z hadronic resonances is hard to reconcile with standard charmonium or bottomonium interpretations. It has been suggested that some of these new hadrons can possibly be described as tightly bound tetraquark states and/or as loosely bound two-meson molecules. In the present paper we focus on the hypothetical existence of flavored, doubly charmed, tetraquarks. Such states might also carry double electric charge, and in this case, if discovered, they could univocally be interpreted in terms of compact tetraquarks. Flavored tetraquarks are also amenable to lattice studies as their interpolating operators do not overlap with ordinary meson ones. We show that doubly charmed tetraquarks could significantly be produced at LHC from B_c or Xi_bc heavy baryons.

The recent observation by the D0 collaboration of a narrow structure X(5568) consisting of four different quark flavors bdus, has not been confirmed by LHCb. More data and dedicated analyses are needed to cover a larger mass range. In the tightly bou nd diquark model, we estimate the lightest bdus, 0^+ tetraquark at a mass of about 5770 MeV, approximately 200 MeV above the reported X(5568), and just 7 MeV below the B Kbar threshold. The charged tetraquark is accompanied by I=1 and I=0 neutral partners almost degenerate in mass. A bdus, S-wave, 1^+ quartet at 5820 MeV is implied as well. In the charm sector, cdus, 0^+ and 1^+ tetraquarks are predicted at 2365 MeV and 2501 MeV, about 40-50 MeV heavier than D_{s0}(2317) and D_{s1}(2460). bdus tetraquarks can be searched in the hadronic debris of a jet initiated by a b. However, some of them may also be produced in B_c decays. The proposed discovery modes of S-wave tetraquarks are B_c --> X_{b0} + pi with the subsequent decays X_{b0} --> B_s + pi, giving rise to final states such as B_s pi^+ pi^0. We also emphasize the importance of B_c decays as a source of bound hidden charm tetraquarks, such as B_c --> X(3872) + pi.

Stimulated by the newly reported doubly-charmed tetraquark state $T_{cc}^+$ by LHCb, we carry out a systematic investigation of the $S$-wave interactions between the charmed meson ($D,,D^{*}$) in $H$-doublet and the charmed meson ($D_{1},,D_{2}^{*}$) in $T$-doublet by adopting the one-boson-exchange model. Both the $S$-$D$ wave mixing effect and the coupled channel effect are taken into account. By performing a quantitative calculation, we suggest that the $S$-wave $D^{*} D_{1}$ states with $I(J^{P})=0(0^{-},,1^{-})$ and the $S$-wave $D^{*}D_{2}^{*}$ state with $I(J^{P})=0(1^{-})$ should be viewed as the most promising candidates of the doubly-charmed molecular tetraquark states, and the $S$-wave $DD_{1}$ state with $I(J^{P})=0(1^{-})$, the $S$-wave $DD_{2}^{*}$ state with $I(J^{P})=0(2^{-})$, and the $S$-wave $D^{*}D_{2}^{*}$ state with $I(J^{P})=0(2^{-})$ are the possible doubly-charmed molecular tetraquark candidates. With the accumulation of experimental data at Run III and after High-Luminosity-LHC upgrade, these predicted doubly-charmed molecular tetraquark states can be accessible at LHCb in the near future.
The hadronic two-body weak decays of the doubly charmed baryons $Xi_{cc}^{++}, Xi_{cc}^+$ and $Omega_{cc}^+$ are studied in this work. To estimate the nonfactorizable contributions, we work in the pole model for the $P$-wave amplitudes and current al gebra for $S$-wave ones. For the $Xi_{cc}^{++}to Xi_c^+pi^+$ mode, we find a large destructive interference between factorizable and nonfactorizable contributions for both $S$- and $P$-wave amplitudes. Our prediction of $sim 0.70%$ for its branching fraction is smaller than the earlier estimates in which nonfactorizable effects were not considered, but agrees nicely with the result based on an entirely different approach, namely, the covariant confined quark model. On the contrary, a large constructive interference was found in the $P$-wave amplitude by Dhir and Sharma, leading to a branching fraction of order $(7-16)%$. Using the current results for the absolute branching fractions of $(Lambda_c^+,Xi_c^+)to p K^-pi^+$ and the LHCb measurement of $Xi_{cc}^{++}toXi_c^+pi^+$ relative to $Xi_{cc}^{++}toLambda_c^+ K^- pi^+pi^+$, we obtain $B(Xi_{cc}^{++}toXi_c^+pi^+)_{rm expt}approx (1.83pm1.01)%$ after employing the latest prediction of $B(Xi_{cc}^{++}toSigma_c^{++}overline{K}^{*0})$. Our prediction of $mathcal{B}(Xi_{cc}^{++}toXi_c^+pi^+)approx 0.7%$ is thus consistent with the experimental value but in the lower end. It is important to pin down the branching fraction of this mode in future study. Factorizable and nonfactorizable $S$-wave amplitudes interfere constructively in $Xi_{cc}^+toXi_c^0pi^+$. Its large branching fraction of order 4% may enable experimentalists to search for the $Xi_{cc}^+$ through this mode. That is, the $Xi_{cc}^+$ is reconstructed through the $Xi_{cc}^+toXi_c^0pi^+$ followed by the decay chain $Xi_c^0to Xi^-pi^+to ppi^-pi^-pi^+$.
Doubly Cabibbo-suppressed (DCS) nonleptonic weak decays of antitriplet charmed baryons are studied systematically in this work. The factorizable and nonfactorizable contributions can be classified explicitly in the topological-diagram approach and tr eated separately. In particular, the evaluation of nonfactorizable terms is based on the pole model in conjunction with current algebra. All three types of relevant non-perturbative parameters contributing factorizable and nonfactorizable terms are estimated in the MIT bag model. Branching fractions of all the DCS decays are predicted to be of order $10^{-4}sim 10^{-6}$. In particular, we find that the three modes $Xi_c^+to Sigma^+ K^0, Sigma^0 K^+$ and $Xi_c^0to Sigma^- K^+$ are as large as $(1sim 2)times 10^{-4}$, which are the most promising DCS channels to be measured. We also point out that the two DCS modes $Xi_c^+to Sigma^+ K^0$ and $Xi_c^0to Sigma^0 K^0$ are possible to be distinguished from $Xi_c^+to Sigma^+ K_S$ and $Xi_c^0to Sigma^0 K_S$. The decay asymmetries for all the channels with a kaon in their final states are found to be large in magnitude and negative in sign.
In this paper, we study the lepton number violation processes of $B_c$ meson induced by possible doubly-charged scalars. Both the three-body decay channels and the four-body decay channels are considered. For the former, $Brtimesleft(frac{s_Delta h_{ ij}}{M_Delta^2}right)^{-2}$ is of the order of $10^{-7}sim 10^{-9}$, and for the later channels, $Brtimesleft(frac{s_Delta h_{ij}}{M_Delta^2}right)^{-2}$ is of the order of $10^{-12}sim 10^{-20}$, where $s_Delta$, $h_{ij}$, $M_Delta$ are the constants related to the doubly-charged boson.
