Abstract

We present an analysis of the light tensor (JPC=2++J^{PC}=2^{++}) hybrid meson mass and coupling from QCD Laplace Sum Rules where the next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative (PT) corrections and the contributions of the non-perturbative (NP) condensates up to dimension-six (D=6D=6) are included. NLO leading-logarithms corrections due to the condensates which contribute in the chiral limit are considered. We obtain the mass M2+=(2038±190)M_{2^+}= (2038\pm 190) MeV and a relatively small coupling f2+=(10.5±2.9)f_{2^+}=(10.5\pm 2.9) MeV normalized as fπ=93f_\pi=93 MeV. Our results suggest that the f2(1950)f_2(1950) or/and the f2(2010)f'_2(2010) may have a sizeable qˉqg\bar qqg hybrid component. We also compute the tensor hybrid topological charge (value of the two-point function at zero momentum) and find (for the first time) at NLO: Πqg(0)=(2.41±0.43)×104GeV6\Pi_{qg}(0)=(2.41\pm 0.43) \times 10^{-4}{\rm GeV}^6 which could be checked from some lattice QCD or/and low energy theorems (LET).
