Gluonic tetracharm configuration of X(6900)

Recently, a new hadronic structure at around 6.9 GeV was observed in an LHCb experiment. From its limited yet known decay mode, one could still determine that it contains at least four charm quarks and hence belongs to the category of exotic state. This finding indicates for the first time the tetra...

description Recently, a new hadronic structure at around 6.9 GeV was observed in an LHCb experiment. From its limited yet known decay mode, one could still determine that it contains at least four charm quarks and hence belongs to the category of exotic state. This finding indicates for the first time the tetracharm exotic states and is therefore quite importance. In this letter, we propose a nature hybrid interpretation for the structure of X(6900), i.e. in [3¯c]cc⊗[8c]G⊗[3c]c¯c¯ configuration with JPC=0++, and by using the QCD Sum Rule technique we performed mass spectrum calculation. The results showed that the observed X(6900) could be a gluonic tetracharm state, and some other structures may exist, e.g., one around 7.2 GeV in the tetracharm hybrid configuration and with JPC=0−+. We also predict the tetrabottom hybrid states, leaving for future experiment.
