Femtoscopic study on $DD^*$ and $D\bar{D}^*$ interactions for $T_{cc}$ and $X(3872)$

Abstract

We investigate $DD^*$ and $D\bar{D}^*$ momentum correlations in high-energy collisions to elucidate the nature of $T_{cc}$ and $X(3872)$ exotic hadrons. Single range Gaussian potentials with the channel couplings to the isospin partners are constructed based on the empirical data. The momentum correlation functions of the $D^0D^{*+}$, $D^+D^{*0}$, $D^0\bar{D}^{*0}$, and $D^+D^{*-}$ pairs are computed with including the coupled-channel effects. We discuss how the nature of the exotic states are reflected in the behaviors of the correlation results.
