Strong Z_c⁺(3900)rightarrow J/psi π⁺; η_(c) rho⁺ decays in QCD

The widths of the strong decays $Z_c^{+}(3900)\to J/\psi \pi^{+}$ and $Z_c^{+}(3900)\to \eta_{c} \rho^{+}$ are calculated. To this end, the mass and decay constant of the exotic $Z_c^{+}(3900)$ state are computed by means of a two-point sum rule. The obtained results are then used to calculate the strong couplings $g_{Z_{c}J/\psi \pi }$ and $g_{Z_{c}\eta_{c} \rho }$ employing QCD sum rules on the light-cone supplied by a technique of the soft-meson approximation. We compare our predictions on the mass and decay widths with available experimental data and other theoretical results.
