A Pattern for the Flavor Dependence of the Quark-Gluon Interaction

Abstract

A flavor dependent kernel is constructed based on the rainbow-ladder truncation of the Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter equation approach of Quantum Chromodynamics. The quark-antiquark interaction is composed of a flavor dependent infrared part and a flavor independent ultraviolet part. Our model gives a successful and unified description of the light, heavy and heavy-light ground pseudoscalar and vector mesons. For the first time, our model shows that the infrared enhanced quark-antiquark interaction is stronger and wider for the lighter quark.
