A calculation of the interaction potential of two heavy-light mesons in lattice QCD is used to study the existence of tetraquark bound states. The interaction potential of the tetraquark system is calculated on the lattice with 2+1 flavours…
We use lattice QCD to investigate the existence of strong-interaction-stable antiheavy-antiheavy-light-light tetraquarks. We study the $\bar b \bar b u s$ system with quantum numbers $J^P = 1^+$ as well as the $\bar b \bar c u d$ systems…
We search for possibly existent bound states in the heavy-light tetraquark channels with quark content $ \bar{b}\bar{b}ud $, $ \bar{b}\bar{b}us $ and $ \bar{b}\bar{c}ud $ using lattice QCD. We carry out calculations on several gauge link…
We use lattice QCD to investigate the spectrum of the $\bar{b} \bar{b} u d$ four-quark system with quantum numbers $I(J^P) = 0(1^+)$. We use five different gauge-link ensembles with $2+1$ flavors of domain-wall fermions, including one at…
I report on a lattice computation of the energy of a system of two light quarks and two static antiquarks as a function of the separation of the static antiquarks. In terms of hadrons such a system corresponds to a pair of B mesons and its…
We investigate four-quark systems consisting of two heavy anti-bottom quarks and two light up/down quarks. We propose to solve a coupled Schr\"odinger equation for the anti-bottom-anti-bottom separation using potentials computed via lattice…
We present results of a lattice calculation of tetraquark states with quark contents $q_1q_2\bar{Q}\bar{Q}, \, q_1,q_2 \subset u,d,s,c$ and $Q \equiv b,c$ in both spin zero ($J=0$) and spin one ($J=1$) sectors. These calculations are…
We study the heavy-heavy-light quark ($QQq$) potential in SU(3) quenched lattice QCD, and discuss one of the roles of the finite-mass valence quark in the inter-quark potential. Monte Carlo simulations are performed with the standard gauge…

We present preliminary results from a lattice calculation of tetraquark states in the charm and bottom sector of the type $ud\bar{b}\bar{b}$, $us\bar{b}\bar{b}$, $ud\bar{c}\bar{c}$ and $sc\bar{b}\bar{b}$. These calculations are performed on…
Motivated by the recent experimental discoveries of multi-quark candidates, e.g., the $\Theta^+(1540)$, we study multi-quark systems in lattice QCD. First, we perform accurate mass measurements of low-lying 5Q states with $J=1/2$ and I=0 in…
We perform the first study about the heavy-heavy-light quark potential in lattice QCD and a potential model. We find that the inter-two-quark confining force is reduced by valence quark motional effects compared to the string tension.
We compute the ground-state energies of a heavy-light K-Lambda like system as a function of the relative distance r of the hadrons. The heavy quarks, one in each hadron, are treated as static. Then, the energies give rise to an adiabatic…
