Multiquark resonances are undoubtedly experimentally observed. The number of states and the amount of details on their properties has been growing over the years. It is very recent the discovery of two pentaquarks and the confirmation of four tetraquarks, two of which had not been observed before. We mainly review the theoretical understanding of this sector of particle physics phenomenology and present some considerations attempting a coherent description of the so called X and Z resonances. The prominent problems plaguing theoretical models, like the absence of selection rules limiting the number of states predicted, motivate new directions in model building. Data are reviewed going through all of the observed resonances with particular attention to their common features and the purpose of providing a starting point to further research.

  1. Analysis of the $D_0^*(2300)$ resonance from lattice QCD under chiral symmetry

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Chiral symmetry corrections in lattice QCD fits shift the D0*(2300) resonance pole closer to the Dπ threshold and reduce its width, while coupled channels produce a two-pole structure.

  2. Determination of the $Z_c(3900)$ and the $Z_{cs}(3985)$ states from joint analysis of experimental and lattice data

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Joint analysis of experimental and lattice data confirms Z_c(3900) and Z_cs(3985) as SU(3) flavor partners with pole masses (3879.6 ± 4.8) MeV and (3976.9 ± 5.1) MeV, half-widths (32.2 ± 4.7) MeV and (28.8 ± 5.9) MeV,...

  3. Coupled-channel study of the three-body $DDK$ and $D^{*}D^{*}K$

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    The DDK system supports a deeply bound compact state across wide parameters and possibly a shallow three-body halo state near the D-DK threshold, with negligible D*D*K coupling and no resonances.

  4. All-charm tetraquarks at hadron colliders: A high-precision fragmentation perspective

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    The authors construct and publicly release the TQ4Q2.0 fragmentation functions for all-heavy S-wave tetraquarks via NRQCD factorization, extending prior work with nonconstituent contributions and replica-based uncertainties.

  5. Correlation function and bound state from the $K D_{s0}^*(2317)$ interaction

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    The K D_s0*(2317) system develops a narrow resonance 40 MeV below threshold under the fixed-center molecular assumption, producing a characteristic correlation function for strong attraction.

  6. Study of the molecular Properties of the $P_c$ and $P_{cs}$ States

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Coupled-channel calculations show Pc and Pcs states as molecular bound states with RMS radii 0.5-2 fm when heavy-quark spin symmetry is respected across all channels.

  7. Does $\psi(4660)$ exist?

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Fits using coupled channels and bare states show the psi(4660) as a conventional charmonium state above the Lambda_c pair threshold in both Belle and BESIII datasets.

  8. QCD sum rule analysis of local meson-meson currents for the $K(1690)$ state

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    QCD sum rules with local meson-meson currents for the K(1690) consistently predict masses around 2 GeV or above, disfavoring a molecular interpretation in favor of a compact multiquark state.

  9. Multimodal Fragmentation of All-Heavy Pentaquarks: Uncertainty-Aware Predictions for Hadron Colliders

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Develops uncertainty-aware fragmentation functions PQ5Q1.1 for all-charm pentaquarks using multimodal perturbative and nonperturbative modeling for collider predictions.
