X(3872) in Effective Field Theory

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2010-01-15 v1

Abstract

If the X(3872) resonance is a shallow boundstate of a the charm mesons D0Dˉ0D^{0} \bar D^{*0} and D0Dˉ0D^{*0} \bar D^{0}, it can be described by an effective theory of nonrelativistic D mesons coupled to nonrelativistic pions (X-EFT). In this talk, I give a brief overview of the X(3872), followed by a short review of X-EFT. I end my talk with results from calculations of the next-to-leading-order correction to the partial decay width Γ[XD0Dˉ0π0]\Gamma[X\to D^0 \bar D^{0} \pi^0], and the decay of X(3872) to P-wave quarkonia.
