Abstract
In this work, we investigate the decays of the fully open-flavor tetraquark state which was observed by the LHCb collaboration very recently. By using an effective Lagrangian approach, the partial widths of are estimated, where is assumed to be an -wave hadronic molecule with . It is found that the estimated results are in agreement with the experimental observations. Moreover, we also predict the decay behaviors of the other unobserved , which are the spin partners of the in the -wave picture. It is pointed out that the state with is a broad state with the width more than 100 MeV, while another state with is a narrow state with the width approaching half of that for the . In addition, our results also show that the mode is expected to be the dominant decay mode for both and . Searching for those unobserved in the future experiments might be helpful to understand the nature of .
