Abstract

We compare two frequently discussed competing structures for a stable b b u d tetraquark with quantum numbers I(JP) = 0(1+) by considering a meson-meson as well as a diquark-antidiquark creation operator. We treat the heavy antiquarks as static with fixed positions and find diquark-antidiquark dominance for b b separations r < 0.2 fm, while for r > 0.5 fm the system essentially corresponds to a pair of B mesons. For the meson-meson to diquark-antidiquark ratio of the tetraquark we obtain around 58%/42%.
