abstract

Very recently, the LHCb Collaboration reported the doubly charmed tetraquark state $T_{cc}^+$ below the $D^{*+}D^0$ threshold about $273$ keV. As a very near-threshold state, its long-distance structure is very important. In the molecular scheme, we relate the coupling constants of $T_{cc}^+$ with $D^{*0}D^+$ and $D^{*+}D^0$ to its binding energy and mixing angle of two components with a coupled-channel effective field theory. With the coupling constants, we investigate the kinetically allowed strong decays $T_{cc}^+\to D^0D^0\pi^+$, $T_{cc}^+\to D^+D^0\pi^0$ and radiative decays $D^+D^0 \gamma$. Our results show that the decay width of $T_{cc}^+\to D^0D^0\pi^+$ is the largest one, which is just the experimental observation channel. Our theoretical total strong and radiative widths are in favor of the $T_{cc}^+$ as a $|D^{*+}D^0\rangle$ dominated bound state. The total strong and radiative width in the single channel limit and isospin singlet limit are given as $59.7^{+4.6}_{-4.4} \text{ keV}$ and $46.7^{+2.7}_{-2.9} \text{ keV}$, respectively. Our calculation is cutoff-independent and without prior isospin assignment. The absolute partial widths and ratios of the different decay channels can be used to test the structure of $T_{cc}^+$ state when the updated experimental results are available.

  1. Systematic Study of Coupled-Channel Dynamics in Doubly Heavy Hadronic Molecules

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Explicit coupled-channel dynamics modifies pole structures and can eliminate or shift higher-lying states in doubly heavy systems, while single-channel models suffice only for near-threshold states like T_cc.

  2. Comprehensive study of hidden charm pentaquarks with an improved unitarization method

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Introduces a hybrid loop function in Bethe-Salpeter unitarization within the local hidden gauge approach to generate hidden-charm pentaquarks, reproducing six known states and predicting new ones in the S=-1, I=1 sector.

  3. Investigating the two-pion exchange of the double charm $DD^*$ chiral interactions and $T_{cc}$

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 4.0

    In this chiral EFT calculation the I=0 DD* two-pion-exchange potential is repulsive, and its near-cancellation with attractive contact and one-pion terms provides the weak binding of Tcc.
