Observation of an exotic narrow doubly charmed tetraquark
Conventional, hadronic matter consists of baryons and mesons made of three quarks and a quark–antiquark pair, respectively 1 , 2 . Here, we report the observation of a hadronic state containing four quarks in the Large Hadron Collider beauty experiment. This so-called tetraquark contains two charm q...

. Here, we report the observation of a hadronic state containing four quarks in the Large Hadron Collider beauty experiment. This so-called tetraquark contains two charm quarks, a

The LHCb Collaboration reports the observation of an exotic, narrow, tetraquark state that contains two charm quarks, an up antiquark and a down antiquark. |
