We present a next-to-leading order QCD sum rule analysis of $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ light tetraquark states. By investigating various compact tetraquark and molecular configurations, we determine the mass spectrum of these states. Our calculations…
In this letter we give the equation of state of QCD at finite temperatures and densities. The recently proposed overlap improving multi-parameter reweighting technique is used to determine observables at nonvanishing chemical potentials.…
A brief review of the latest developments in the spectroscopy of heavy quarks is presented. The current status of the recently `discovered' pentaquarks is also discussed.
In this article, we perform a systematic study of the mass spectrum of the vector hidden charmed and bottomed tetraquark states using the QCD sum rules.
We evaluate the static $qq\bar{q}\bar{q}$ and $qqqq\bar{q}$ potentials in the quenched theory at $\beta=5.8$ and $\beta=6.0$ on a lattice of size $16^3\times 32$. We compare the static potentials to the sum of two meson potentials for the…
We perform a systematic study of the electromagnetic properties of exotic states to shed light on their nature, which is still controversial and not fully understood. The magnetic dipole and higher multipole moments of a hadronic state are…
We systematically investigate the electromagnetic properties of exotic states whose internal structures remain uncertain and for which different models have been proposed. In this work, we focus on the magnetic dipole moments of…
In this article, we construct the scalar-diquark-axialvector-diquark-antiquark type interpolating currents, and study the masses and pole residues of the $J^{P}=\frac{3}{2}^{\pm}$ hidden-charmed pentaquark states with the QCD sum rules. In…
The role of quark correlations in the description of hadron dynamics in many domains of physics, from low energy dynamics to very hot(dense) systems, is being appreciated. Strong correlations of two quarks (diquark) have been widely…
In this article, we extend our previous work to study the mass spectrum of the ground state hidden-bottom tetraquark states with the QCD sum rules in a systematic way. The predicted hidden-bottom tetraquark masses can be confronted to the…
We present a very general argument that the analogue of a heavy pentaquark (a state with the quantum numbers of a baryon combined with an additional light quark and a heavy antiquark) must exist as a particle stable under strong…
Several experimental groups have reported evidence for baryons with flavor exotic quantum numbers that cannot be explained as $qqq$ bound states but require a minimum of five quarks -- $qqqq \bar q$. These pentaquark states include the…
Two-ordinary-meson scattering in large-$N_c$ QCD implies consistency criteria for intermediate-tetraquark contributions. Their fulfilment at $N_c$-leading order constrains the nature of the spectrum of genuinely exotic tetraquark states.
I comment on progress of lattice QCD techniques and calculations. Recent results on pentaquark masses as well as of the spectrum of excited baryons are summarizned and interpreted. The present state of calculations of quantities related to…
Using configuration space techniques, we calculate next-to-leading order (NLO) five-loop QCD corrections to the correlators of interpolating pentaquark currents in the limit of massless quarks. We obtain very large NLO corrections to the…
Lattice QCD approach to study the hadronic resonances and exotic hadrons is described at an introductory level. The main challenge is that these states decay strongly via one or more decay channels, and they often lie near thersholds.…
The current status of determinations of the QCD running quark masses is reviewed. Emphasis is on recent progress on analytical precision determinations based on finite energy QCD sum rules. A critical discussion of the merits of this…
We present a quenched lattice QCD calculation of spin-1/2 five-quark states with $uudd\bar{s}$ quark content for both positive and negative parities. We do not observe any bound pentaquark state in these channels for either I = 0 or I =1.…
In this paper, we have systematically explored the mass spectrum of fully strange tetraquark candidates within the framework of QCD sum rules, focusing on states with quantum numbers $J^{PC}=0^{++}$, $0^{-+}$, $0^{--}$, $1^{--}$, $1^{+-}$,…
We study details of QCD sum rules \`a la Shifman-Vainshtein-Zakharov for exotic tetraquark states. We point out that duality relations for correlators involving exotic currents have fundamental differences compared with the duality…
