Abstract

In this study, the spectroscopic parameters of exotic molecular states composed of mesons containing two heavy quarks (scalar - axial and pseudoscalar - axial meson combinations) are investigated within the QCD sum rules. Our findings reveal that molecular states containing charm quarks do not form bound states, whereas states with b-quarks can form exotic molecular states. This observation has significant implications for understanding the structure of these exotic states.
