A Non-Relativistic Model of Tetraquarks

In this thesis, a non-relativistic model of tetraquark in a diquark-antidiquark configuration is investigated. Using a variation of the Cornell potential, the Schrödinger equation is solved numerically, and the four-body problem of the tetraquark is separated into to three two-body problems. The spl...
