In operator product expansion, we considered the terms including dimension eight, and we performed pole contribution tests carefully. According to our results, all of these currents couple to the ground states with degenerate masses which are in 10 MeV vicinity of chi(c1) (4140). Therefore, with a QCD sum rules analysis, it is not possible to conclude that chi(c1) (4140) has a dominant molecular or diquark-antidiquark content. However, there may be three states degenerate in mass, with positive charge conjugation and different isospins.engrestrictedAccessarticle985386500046606150000310.1016/j.nuclphysa.2019.01.011Exotic hadronsQCD phenomenologyQCD sum rulesX(4140)2-s2.0-85062393788
