Abstract

At the large distances compared to the chiral symmetry breaking scale, a four-quark system QˉQˉqq\bar Q \bar Q qq (with QQ as heavy and qq as light quarks) can be treated as two asymptotic mesons interacting via strong residual forces. The static heavy quark assumption enables using the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, where one can compute the potential between two heavy antiquarks in the presence of two light quarks of finite mass -- a prescription utilized in several lattice QCD studies. To analyse the long-range strong force in a QˉQˉqq\bar Q \bar Q qq system, we study the interaction between two bottom mesons in the heavy quark limit using chiral effective field theory and dispersion theory with unphysical pion mass. We present methods to obtain two-pion-exchange potential between two static heavy mesons at non-physical pion mass and compare our preliminary results with the corresponding lattice QCD potentials.
