4 First charmonium with isospin I=1 ! Tetraquark state? ( Ebert etal; Rosner; Maiani et al; Lee ) Molecular state of D*  D1? ( Bugg; Liu et al ) Subthreshold effects due to D*  D1? ( Bugg; Chao et al ) Baryonium? ( Qiao ) …… Why not seen in J/   ? Can it couple to  c ? Where are its flavor partners? …… Strong coupling for Z(4430) 

5  Why care exotics? QCD does not eliminate the existence of hadrons beyond simple (q  q) or (qqq) as a color-singlet system. How confinement manifests itself at large distances? What leads to the chiral symmetry spontaneous breaking? What are the proper effective degrees of freedom for a hadron? … … qqqq Hybrid Glueball Tetraquark Molecule state

8  Quantum numbers A vector  (1  ) and pseudoscalar  (0  ) can make a Z of J P = 1 , 0 , 1 , 2  in a relative S or P wave. , 1  Z + (4430)  , 0  L = 0, 1

10 V ( , , , J/ ,  …)  Vector meson dominance model V  * effective coupling: EM field in terms of vector meson fields:  ** e+ e- ** e+ e-  =    ** e+ e-

11  pion-nucleon coupling Form factor for pion-nucleon coupling:  p n Transition amplitude:

12  Other mechanism   a0a0 Z+Z+ p n

13  Numerical results  a0a0 Forward peaking due to pion exchange Threshold enhancement similar to charged  production Negligibly small a0 exchange Other quantum numbers 1  and 0  are also investigated (X.-H. Liu, Q.Z. and F.E. Close, PRD in press; arXiv:0802.2648[hep-ph] ) 11 11

14 H1 at DESY Peak area for Z(4430)

15  Background contributions Experimentally, one looks at  n as final particles in the detector. (I) Signal transitions are as below: (II) Background contributions due to diffractive  production: Vacuum Pomeron exchange

16  Contributions from J/  Define: Withand the cross sections are still sizeable.

17  Dalitz plot Z(4430) band Total xsection for  p   + n Z(4430), if exists, will stand out of the background in photoproduction.

18  Perspective  Z(4430) could be the first indisputable exotic meson, a hidden charm system with isospin I=1.  If it is a genuine resonance, its photoproduction will be favored in  n channel. A search for it at H1 and ZEUS might help clarifying this issue.  A search for Z(4430) and its partners is necessary.
