Abstract

Motivated by the recent observation of the tetraquark $ T_{cc}^{+}$, we investigate the magnetic dipole moments of the possible single and double strange partners, $T_{QQ \bar q \bar s}$ and $T_{QQ \bar s \bar s}$, with the spin-parity $ J^{P} = 1^{+}$ by means of the QCD light-cone sum rules. To this end, we model these states as diquark-antidiquark states with different organizations and interpolating currents. The results of magnetic dipole moments obtained using different diquark-antidiquark structures differ from each other, considerably. The magnetic dipole moment is the leading-order response of a bound system to a soft external magnetic field. Therefore, it provides an excellent platform for investigation of the inner structures of hadrons governed by the quark-gluon dynamics of QCD.
