Four-quark hadrons: An updated review

Abstract: The past decade witnessed a remarkable proliferation of exotic charmonium-like resonances discovered at accelerators. In particular, the recently observed charged states are clearly not interpretable as qq mesons. Notwithstanding the considerable advances on the experimental side, conflicting theoretical descriptions do not seem to provide a definitive picture about the nature of the so called XY Z particles. We present here a comprehensive review about this intriguing topic, discussing both those experimental… Show more

“…According to PDG [1], the Z(3930) is the χ c2 (2P) charmonium state and the X(3915) is the χ c0 (2P) charmonium state. The hyperfine splitting between the Z(3930) and X(3915) is only 6% of that between the χ c2 (1P) and χ c0 (1P) [57], which is unexpectedly smaller than the potential model prediction [813]. Such a splitting was also much smaller than the corresponding splitting of m χ b2 −m χ b0 [1].…”

“…Such exotic states are heavily studied in the meson sector, where a number of candidates for qqqq states have been detected in recent experiments such as Belle, BABAR, BES and LHCb, see e.g. [282,283] for recent reviews. In the baryon sector, five-quark states are of considerable interest especially since the experimental signature of a potential pentaquark has been reported at LHCb [2].…”

“…[22,23] when we give details of the coupled-channel formulation). Alternative scenarios for a non qq structure of these states have been also given [30][31][32][33][34][35]. With two channels and three energy levels one is forced to treat the three components of the coupled-channel potential (V 11 , V 12 , V 22 ) as being energy independent.…”
