B PY 2022 BP 137290 EP 7pp VL 833 DI 10.1016/j.physletb.2022.137290 LA English DE Effective range expansion; Exotic states; Tetraquarks; Hadronic molecules AB We discuss some general features of the effective range expansion, the content of its parameters with respect to the nature of the pertinent near-threshold states and the necessary modifications in the presence of coupled channels, isospin violations and unstable constituents. As illustrative examples, we analyse the properties of the chi(c1)(3872) and T-cc(+) states supporting the claim that these exotic states have a predominantly molecular nature. ER
