Meson spectrum and tetraquarks through an AdS/QCD inspired potential

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-06-25 v1

Abstract

AdS/QCD correspondence allows to compute the quark-antiquark potential in the static limit. We use this piece of information together with the Salpeter equation (Schroedinger equation with relativistic kinematics) and a short range hyperfine splitting potential to describe the bound states of quark-antiquark. Comparison with experiment permits to fit the parameters of the model, namely the quark masses and the quark potential parameters. A discussion of heavy tetraquark masses, prompted by the hypothesis of a diquark-antidiquark structure for the puzzling state X(3872), is also presented.
