Masses of the $QQ\bar Q\bar Q$ tetraquarks in the relativistic diquark--antidiquark picture

Abstract: Masses of the ground-state teraquarks composed from heavy $c$ and $b$ quarks and antiquarks are calculated in the diquark-antidiquark picture in the framework of the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach. The quasipotentials of the quark-quark and diquark-antidiquark interactions are constructed similarly to the previous consideration of mesons and baryons. It is assumed that the diquark and antidiquark interact in the tetraquark as a whole and the internal structure of the diquarks is taken into account. All such tetraquarks are found above the thresholds of decays to two heavy quarkonia. This is a result of the consideration of the diquark not to be a point-like object. Therefore such tetraquarks can be observed as broad structures decaying dominantly to quarkonia. The broad structure next to the di-$J/\psi$ mass threshold, recently observed by the LHCb Collaboration, can correspond to the ground $2^{++}$-state tetraquark consisting of four charm quarks.
