A new non relativistic quark model to calculate the spectrum of heavy quark mesons is developed. The model is based on an interquark potential interaction that implicitly incorporates screening effects from meson-meson configurations. An…
Heavy-quark spin symmetry is explicitly broken by the mass splitting between a heavy-light pseudoscalar meson and its vector partner. This fact plays a pivotal role in the physics of states whose mass lies close to the threshold of an…
General results are obtained for meson mass splittings and mixings in unquenched (coupled-channel) quark models. Theorems derived previously in perturbation theory are generalised to the full coupled-channel system. A new formula is…
