/ Abstract
The existence of bound doubly heavy tetraquark states was confirmed by the recent LHCb discovery of the doubly charmed $T_{cc}$, less than 1 MeV below the meson pair threshold. Others states with two heavy (bottom or charm) quarks could also be bound, perhaps more deeply. Here we discuss our previous work, and the improvements in our current, updated analysis of various heavy-heavy-light-light tetraquark candidates, including the light and heavy quark mass dependence of the binding.
