Recently, a hadronic state named $\eta_1(1855)$, about 1.86 GeV, was observed in the BESIII experiment. This finding has a peculiar interest due to its exotic quantum number $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$. In this paper, we examine the tetraquark interpretation for the structure of $\eta_1(1855)$ in the configurations of $[1_c]_{\bar{s}s}\otimes[1_c]_{\bar{q}q}$ and $[1_c]_{\bar{s}q}\otimes[1_c]_{\bar{s}q}$, and perform a mass spectrum calculation in the framework of QCD sum rules. The results show that the observed $\eta_1(1855)$ could be embedded into the $[1_c]_{\bar{s}s}\otimes[1_c]_{\bar{q}q}$ configuration. The possible tetraquark and hybrid decay modes are analyzed, which are critical in decoding its inner structure. In the same way, we evaluate as well the $\bar{s}s\bar{s}s$ molecular state with $1^{-+}$ quantum number and find that there might exist two such ground states.

  1. Light tetraquark states with $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ from QCD sum rules

    hep-ph 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    QCD sum rules yield lowest masses of 1.53-2.34 GeV for light 1^{--} tetraquarks across isoscalar, isovector and isotensor sectors plus one 1^{-+} isotensor mass of 2.19 GeV.

  2. Interaction and correlation functions for $\pi f_1(1285)$, $\eta f_1(1285)$

    hep-ph 2026-05 conditional novelty 5.0

    Using the fixed-center approximation, the π⁰(η) f₁(1285) interaction yields scattering parameters and correlation functions but no clear poles for the π₁(1400), π₁(1600), or η₁(1855) resonances, only a broad structure...

  3. QCD sum rule analysis of local meson-meson currents for the $K(1690)$ state

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    QCD sum rules with local meson-meson currents for the K(1690) consistently predict masses around 2 GeV or above, disfavoring a molecular interpretation in favor of a compact multiquark state.

  4. Study of $\chi_{cJ}\to \eta \eta \eta^\prime$ via intermediate charmed meson loop mechanisms and its implications for non-observation of $\eta_1(1855)$ in $\chi_{cJ}$ decays

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Charmed-meson loop calculations reproduce the branching fractions of chi_cJ to eta eta eta' and the absence of eta1(1855) signal in the eta eta' spectrum.

  5. Systematic study of exotic $1^{-+}$ tetraquark spectroscopy

    hep-ph 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    A constituent quark model predicts masses of 1.9, 4.2, and 6.6 GeV for light, charmonium-like, and fully-charm 1^{-+} tetraquarks along with decay ratios for specific two-body channels and rules out η1(1855) as a comp...
