Abstract

We study the SS-wave DDˉ(I=0)D\bar{D}^*(I=0) scattering at four different pion masses mπm_\pi ranging from 250 MeV to 417 MeV from Nf=2N_f=2 lattice QCD. Three energy levels E2,3,4E_{2,3,4} are extracted at each mπm_\pi. The analysis of E2,3E_{2,3} using the effective range expansion (ERE) comes out with a shallow bound state below the DDˉD\bar{D}^* threshold, and the phase shifts at E3,4E_{3,4} indicate the possible existence of a resonance near 4.0 GeV. We also perform a joint analysis to E2,3,4E_{2,3,4} through the KK-matrix parameterization of the scattering amplitude. In this way, we observe a DDˉD\bar{D}^* bound state whose properties are almost the same as that from the ERE analysis. At each mπm_\pi, this joint analysis also results in a resonance pole with a mass slightly above 4.0 GeV and a width around 40-60 MeV, which are compatible with the properties of the newly observed χc1(4010)\chi_{c1}(4010) by LHCb. More scrutinized lattice QCD calculations are desired to check the existence of this resonance.

19 pages, 14 figures. Substantially revised. A section is added to address the joint analysis of the $E_{2,3,4}$ based on the $K$-matrix parameterization of scattering amplitude. A resonance pole is observed with a mass slightly $> 4.0$ GeV and width around 40-60 MeV, compatible with the newly observed $\chi_{c1}(4010)$ by LHCb. The conclusion on the existence of a bound state does not change
