Abstract: (arXiv)
The Efimov effect is an intriguing three-body quantum phenomenon. Searching for Efimov states within the realms of nuclear and hadronic physics presents a challenge due to the inherent inability of natural physical systems to exhibit adjustable two-body scattering lengths. In this study, we examine the potential existence of Efimov states in the DDDD^*D^*D^* and DDDDD^*D^* three-hadron systems. Utilizing a pionless effective field theory framework, we determine that the presence of Efimov states in the spectrum of the DDDD^*D^*D^* system is contingent upon the existence of an (I,J)=(1,2)(I,J)=(1,2)DDD^*D^* two-body bound system. If only the Tcc+T_{cc}^+ and its heavy quark spin partner Tcc+T_{cc}^{*+} exist while there is no near-threshold pole in all other SS-wave D()DD^{(*)}D^* scattering amplitudes, no Efimov effect is expected in the D()DDD^{(*)}D^*D^* systems.
