Exotic Heavy Hadrons
arXiv:2508.11483 · doi:10.3390/sym17081324
Abstract
We review our recent findings on the structure and properties of exotic heavy hadrons, focusing on two main topics. First, we examine the role of correlations driven by the short-range Coulomb-like color interaction in hidden heavy-flavor pentaquarks. We show how this framework consistently accounts for the observed pattern of and states in the hidden-charm sector and enables predictions for the hidden-bottom sector, where experimental data are still lacking. The second topic explores the possibility of forming stable multihadron molecules from deeply bound two-hadron exotic states. In this context, a bound state of three mesons, denoted as , with quantum numbers , is presented. We find that the binding energy generally decreases as the number of hadrons increases, primarily due to effects of the Pauli principle and the appearance of new decay thresholds. Nonetheless, resonances may still arise in specific cases, depending on the internal thresholds of the system. Finally, we discuss how the decay width of an exotic multihadron resonance can offer valuable insights into its internal structure and underlying~dynamics.
