HAL QCD method and Nucleon-Omega interaction with physical quark masses

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2018-11-16 v1

Abstract

In lattice QCD, both direct method and HAL QCD method are used to investigate the two-baryon systems. We show that due to the contamination of the scattering excited states, it is challenging to measure the eigenenergy from the temporal correlation in the direct method, while the HAL QCD method can extract the information of the interaction from both scattering states and ground state by using the spatial correlation. We examine the systematic uncertainty of the derivative expansion in the HAL QCD method, which is found to be well under control at the low energies. By using the time-dependent HAL QCD method, we study the nucleon(NN)-Omega(Ω\Omega) system in the 5^5S2_2 channel with almost physical quark masses at mπ146m_\pi \simeq 146 MeV. We find the interaction is attractive at all distances, which produces a quasi-bound state with the binding energy 1.54(0.30)(0.10+0.04^{+0.04}_{-0.10}) MeV. We also consider the extra Coulomb interaction in the pΩp\Omega^{-}(5^5S2_2) system, whose binding energy becomes 2.46(0.34)(0.01+0.04^{+0.04}_{-0.01}) MeV. NΩN\Omega(5^5S2_2) dibaryon could be searched through two-particle correlations in the heavy ion collision experiments.
