In this work, we study the $J/\psi\pi$ and $\bar{D}^*D$ invariant mass spectra of the $Y(4260)$ decay to find out the origin of the $Z_c(3900)$ and $Z_c(3885)$ structures. The $J/\psi \pi-\bar{D}^{*}D$ interaction is studied in a…
Most strong-interaction resonances have decay channels involving three or more particles, including many of the recently discovered $X$, $Y$ and $Z$ resonances. In order to study such resonances from first principles using lattice QCD, one…
Several charged charmonium-like hadrons called $Z_c$ have been recently discovered by different experiments. In contrast to conventional hadrons these contain at least two valence quarks and antiquarks ($\bar{c}c\bar{d}u$). We perform a…
Within the framework of three-channel Ross-Shaw effective range theory, we derive the constraints among different parameters of the theory in the case of a narrow resonance close to the threshold of the third channel, which is relevant for…
A comprehensive study on the nature of the $Z_c(3900)$ resonant structure is carried out in this work. By constructing the pertinent effective Lagrangians and considering the important final-state-interaction effects, we first give a…
There have been extended and heated discussions on the nature of the two exotic states, $Z_c(3900)$ and $Z_{cs}(3985)$, particularly whether they are near-threshold resonances, virtual states, or bound states. In this work, we demonstrate…
In the last few years, numerical simulations of QCD on the lattice have reached a new level of accuracy. A wide range of thermodynamic quantities is now available in the continuum limit and for physical quark masses. This allows a…
We propose a novel quasiparticle interpretation of the equation of state of deconfined QCD at finite temperature. Using appropriate thermal masses, we introduce a phenomenological parametrization of the onset of confinement in the vicinity…
At the invariant mass spectrum of $h_c\pi^\pm$ a new resonance $Z_c(4020)$ has been observed, however the previously confirmed $Z_c(3900)$ does not show up at this channel. In this paper we assume that $Z_c(3900)$ and $Z_c(4020)$ are…
Scattering and transition amplitudes with three-hadron final states play an important role in nuclear and particle physics. However, predicting such quantities using numerical Lattice QCD is very difficult, in part because of the effects of…
Lattice simulations of hadronic structure are now reaching a level where they are able to not only complement, but also provide guidance to current and forthcoming experimental programmes at, e.g. Jefferson Lab, COMPASS/CERN and FAIR/GSI.…
Lattice QCD simulations provide a promising way to disentangle different interpretations of hadronic resonances, which might be of particular relevance to understand the nature of the so-called $XYZ$ particles. Recent studies have shown…
This year lattice QCD has become very public. A new generation of simulations (including light dynamical quarks) have produced results which are in close agreement with many ``easy'' experimental quantities, and precise predictions for…
We compare higher moments of baryon numbers measured at the RHIC heavy ion collision experiments with those by the lattice QCD calculations. We employ the canonical approach, in which we can access the real chemical potential regions…
Supposing the $Z_{c}^{+}(3900)$ as a charged partner of the X(3872), we use the QCD sum rules techinques in order to obtain the coupling constants of the $Z_{c}^{+} \, J/\psi\, \pi^{+}$, $Z_{c}^{+}\, \eta_{c}\, \rho^{+}$ and…
