Abstract

We perform the first study for the bound states of colored scalar particles ϕ\phi ("scalar quarks") in terms of mass generation with quenched SU(3)c_c lattice QCD. We investigate the bound states of ϕ\phi, ϕϕ\phi^\dagger\phi and ϕϕϕ\phi\phi\phi ("scalar-quark hadrons"), as well as the bound states of ϕ\phi and quarks ψ\psi, i.e., ϕψ\phi^\dagger\psi, ψψϕ\psi\psi\phi and ϕϕψ\phi\phi\psi ("chimera hadrons"). All these new-type hadrons including ϕ\phi have a large mass of several GeV due to large quantum corrections by gluons, even for zero bare scalar-quark mass mϕ=0m_\phi=0 at a11GeVa^{-1}\sim 1{\rm GeV}. We find a similar mψm_\psi-dependence between ϕψ\phi^\dagger\psi and ϕϕψ\phi\phi\psi, which indicates their similar structure due to the large mass of ϕ\phi. From this study, we conjecture that all colored particles generally acquire a large effective mass due to dressed gluons.
