Description
Heavy-flavor hadrons with non-conventional properties have been observed
over the past two decades. Some of these states have both quarkonium and
exotic interpretations, while several other states exhibit a distinct
exotic internal structure, including charged, open-flavor, double
heavy-flavor, and full heavy-flavor states. Interpretations of these
states vary, ranging from tightly-bound compact multiquark objects to
loosely-bound hadronic molecules. The searches for new exotic candidates
provide not only insights on the quark binding mechanisms within hadrons
but also offers valuable inputs for a better understanding of the
non-perturbative regime of QCD. In this context, the LHCb experiment,
dedicated to studying heavy-flavor hadrons using hadron collision data
from the LHC operation, plays a crucial role as demonstrated by the
large number of new states observed. In this presentation, the latest
results from LHCb regarding exotic hadron spectroscopy are shown.
