New insight into the exotic states strongly coupled with the $D\bar{D}^*$ from the $T^+_{cc}$

We have investigated the internal structure of the open- and hidden-charmed ($DD^*$/$\bar DD^*$) molecules in the unified framework. We first fit the experimental lineshape of the $T^+_{cc}$ state and extract the $DD^*$ interaction, from which the $T^+_{cc}$ is assumed to arise solely. Then we obtain the $D\bar{D}^*$ interaction by charge conjugation. Our results show that the $D\bar{D}^*$ interaction is attractive but insufficient to form $X(3872)$ as a bound state. Instead, its formation requires the crucial involvement of the coupled channel effect between the $D\bar D^*$ and $c\bar c$ components, although the $c\bar c$ accounts for approximately $1\%$ only. Besides $X(3872)$, we have obtained a higher-energy state around $3957.9$ MeV with a width of $16.7$ MeV, which may be a potential candidate for the $X(3940)$. In $J^{PC}=1^{+-}$ sector, we have found two states related to the iso-scalar $\tilde X(3872)$ and $h_c(2P)$, respectively. Our combined study provides valuable insights into the nature of these $DD^*$/$D\bar D^*$ exotic states.
