# A diquark model for the d*(2380) dibaryon resonance?

## TL;DR

This paper evaluates the diquark model's applicability to the light quark d*(2380) dibaryon resonance and finds it unsuitable for describing such light quark systems.

## Contribution

The study critically assesses diquark models for light quark dibaryons, specifically the d*(2380), and demonstrates their limitations in this context.

## Key findings

- Diquark models are unsuitable for light quark dibaryons.
- The d*(2380) resonance cannot be accurately described by diquark models.
- Highlights the need for alternative models for light quark dibaryons.

## Abstract

Diquark models have been applied with varying degree of success to tetraquark and pentaquark states involving both light and heavy quark degrees of freedom. We discuss the applicability of such models to light quark dibaryons, viewed as three-diquark objects. Highlighting the case of the d*(2380) dibaryon resonance, we demonstrate the inapplicability of diquark models in the light quark sector.
