Description

We test the validity of the QCD sum rules applied to the meson Z+(4430), by considering a diquark-antidiquark type of current with JP=0- and with JP=1-. We find that, with the studied currents, it is possible to find an acceptable Borel window. In such a Borel window we have simultaneously a good OPE convergence and a pole contribution which is bigger than the continuum contribution. We get mZ=(4.52±0.09) GeV and mZ=(4.84±0.14) GeV for the currents with JP=0- and JP=1-, respectively. We conclude that the QCD sum rules results favors JP=0- quantum numbers for the Z+(4430) meson
