We investigate the production of exotic tetraquarks, $QQbar{q}bar{q} equiv T_{QQ}$ ($Q=c$ or $b$ and $q=u$ or $d$), in relativistic heavy-ion collisions using the quark coalescence model. The $T_{QQ}$ yield is given by the overlap of the density matrix of the constituents in the emission source with the Wigner function of the produced tetraquark. The tetraquark wave function is obtained from exact solutions of the four-body problem using realistic constituent models. The production yields are typically one order of magnitude smaller than previous estimations based on simplified wave functions for the tetraquarks. We also evaluate the consequences of the partial restoration of chiral symmetry at the hadronization temperature on the coalescence probability. Such effects, in addition to increasing the stability of the tetraquarks, lead to an enhancement of the production yields, pointing towards an excellent discovery potential in forthcoming experiments. We discuss further consequences of our findings for the search of exotic tetraquarks in central Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC.

We propose to describe the heavy and exotic tetraquark state as a holographic molecule by binding the lightest heavy-light meson $(0^-, 1^-)$ multiplet to a flavored sphaleron in the bulk of the Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto model. The strongly bound tetraqu
ark state emerges as an Efimov state with a binding energy that is comparable to that reported in recent lattice simulations and standard quark model estimates for bottom. Our construction finds charm and mixed charm-bottom tetraquark states to be also bound. The unique feature of these states stems from the fact that they are perhaps the first manifestation of the Efimov bound state mechanism in the hadronic world.
In this work, we study systematically the mass splittings of the $qqbar{Q}bar{Q}$ ($q=u$, $d$, $s$ and $Q=c$, $b$) tetraquark states with the color-magnetic interaction by considering color mixing effects and estimate roughly their masses. We find th
at the color mixing effect is relatively important for the $J^P=0^+$ states and possible stable tetraquarks exist in the $nnbar{Q}bar{Q}$ ($n=u$, $d$) and $nsbar{Q}bar{Q}$ systems either with $J=0$ or with $J=1$. Possible decay patterns of the tetraquarks are briefly discussed.
In the framework of the color-magnetic interaction, we systematically investigate the mass spectrum of the tetraquark states composed of four heavy quarks with the $QQbar Qbar Q$ configuration in this work. We also show their strong decay patterns. S
table or narrow states in the $bbbar{b}bar{c}$ and $bcbar{b}bar{c}$ systems are found to be possible. We hope the studies shall be helpful to the experimental search for heavy-full exotic tetraquark states.
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 mom
ent 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.
A study of the horn in the particle ratio $K^+/pi^+$ for central heavy-ion collisions as a function of the collision energy $sqrt{s}$ is presented. We analyse two different interpretations: the onset of deconfinement and the transition from a baryon-
to a meson-dominated hadron gas. We use a realistic equation of state (EOS), which includes both hadron and quark degrees-of-freedom. The Taub-adiabate procedure is followed to determine the system at the early stage. Our results do not support an explanation of the horn as due to the onset of deconfinement. Using only hadronic EOS we reproduced the energy dependence of the $K^+/pi^+$ and $Lambda/pi^-$ ratios employing an experimental parametrisation of the freeze-out curve. We observe a transition between a baryon- and a meson-dominated regime; however, the reproduction of the $K^+/pi^+$ and $Lambda/pi^-$ ratios as a function of $sqrt{s}$ is not completely satisfying. We finally propose a new idea for the interpretation of the data, the roll-over scheme, in which the scalar meson field $sigma$ has not reached the thermal equilibrium at freeze-out. The rool-over scheme for the equilibration of the $sigma$-field is based on the inflation mechanism. The non-equilibrium evolution of the scalar field influences the particle production, e.g. $K^+/pi^+$, however, the fixing of the free parameters in this model is still an open issue.
