Multiquark states in a Goldstone boson exchange model

Abstract

We discuss the stability of multiquark systems containing heavy flavours. We show that the Goldstone boson exchange (GBE) model gives results at variance with the one-gluon-exchange (OGE) model, i.e. when the GBE model stabilizes a system the OGE model destabilizes it and vice-versa.
