The meson Z(+) (4430) as a tetraquark state

We test the validity of the QCD sum rules applied to the meson Z(+)(4430). by considering a diquark-antidiquark type of current with J(P) = 0(-) and with J(P) = 1(-). We find that, with the studied currents, it is possible to find an acceptable Borel window. In such a Borel window we have simultaneously a good OPE convergence and a pole contribution which is bigger than the continuum contribution. We get m(z) = (4.52 +/- 0.09) GeV and m(Z) = (4.84 +/- 0.14) GeV for the currents with J(P) = 0(-) and J(P) = 1(-), respectively. We conclude that the QCD sum rules results favors J(P) = 0(-) quantum numbers for the Z(+) (4430) meson. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
