Hidden charmed states and multibody color flux-tube dynamics

Abstract

Within the framework of the color flux-tube model with a multibody confinement potential, we systematically investigate the hidden charmed states observed in recent years. It can be found that most of them can be described as the compact tetraquark states [cq][c.q.] (q=u, d and s) in the color flux-tube model. The multibody confinement potential based on the color flux-tube picture is a dynamical mechanism in the formation and decay of the compact tetraquark states.
