Nuclear many-body systems, ranging from nuclei to neutron stars, are some of the most interesting physical phenomena in our universe, and Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) approaches are among the most accurate many-body methods currently available…
The molecule and the tetraquark model are the two competing interpretations of the X(3872). I will briefly comment on how far these two pictures are really resolvable by the experiment, and I will give a concise account on a new method for…
The X(3872) is universally accepted to be an exotic hadron. In this letter we assume that the X(3872) is a D0 \bar D0* molecule, as claimed by many authors, and attempt an estimate of its prompt production cross section at Tevatron. A…
We fit the invariant mass distribution of ${X(3872)}\rightarrow{J}/{\psi}\pi^+\pi^-$ from LHCb using the propagator for S-wave near-threshold states in effective field theory. In this way, we can directly determine the $Z$ which measures…
We represent QCD at the hadronic scale by means of an effective Hamiltonian, $H$, formulated in the Coulomb gauge. As in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, chiral symmetry is explicity broken, however our approach is renormalizable and also…
The last decade of hadron spectroscopy has unveiled a wealth of states that do not have the properties expected of particles composed of two or three valence quarks. Among the most intriguing of these exotics is the $\chi_{c1}(3872)$, which…
A diffusion Monte Carlo algorithm is introduced that can determine the correct nodal structure of the wave function of a few-fermion system and its ground-state energy without an uncontrolled bias. This is achieved by confining signed…
Multiquark systems appear less frequently than mesons and baryons despite the enormous world-wide experimental effort that has been made during the last two decades. In this work, we will propose a possible explanation for that fact,…
In this work we investigate the $X(3872)$ meson with quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ in the framework of the thermal QCD sum rules method. We use a diquark-antidiquark current with the corresponding quantum numbers and calculate the…
A menage a trois is very different from an ordinary family. Similarly, exotic hadrons with both qq and qbar q pairs have important color-space correlations that are completely absent in ordinary mesons and baryons. The presence of both…
We analyze how the renowned X(3872), a weakly bound state right below the $D \bar D^*$ threshold, should effectively be included in a hadronic representation of the QCD partition function. This can be decided by analyzing the $D \bar D^*$…
We analyze recent data from the Babar and Belle Collaborations on the X(3872) resonance in the J/psi pi+ pi- and D0 D0-bar pi0 decay channels, taking careful account of the universal features of an S-wave threshold resonance. Because the…
The strangeness content of hadronic matter is studied in a string-flip model that reproduces various aspects of the QCD-inspired phenomenology, such as quark clustering at low density and color deconfinement at high density, while avoiding…
We report on the first results for the second-order perturbation theory correction to the ground-state energy of a nuclear many-body system in a continuum quantum Monte Carlo calculation. Second-order (and higher) perturbative corrections…
We have performed a coupled channel calculation of the $1^{++}$ $c\bar c$ sector including $q\bar q$ and $DD^*$ molecular configurations. The calculation was done within a constituent quark model which successfully describes the meson…
Utilizing a QCD Coulomb gauge Hamiltonian with linear confinement specified by lattice, we report a relativistic many-body calculation for the light exotic and charmed hybrid mesons. The Hamiltonian successfully describes both quark and…
By decomposing the important sampled imaginary time Schr\"odinger evolution operator to fourth order with positive coefficients, we derived a number of distinct fourth order Diffusion Monte Carlo algorithms. These sophisticated algorithms…
We present a study of the $D^*\rho$ system made by using the method of QCD sum rules to determine the mass of possible resonances generated in the same system. Using isospin and spin projectors, we investigate the different configurations…
We investigate the low-energy elastic DbarN interaction using a quark model that confines color and realizes dynamical chiral symmetry breaking. The model is defined by a microscopic Hamiltonian inspired in the QCD Hamiltonian in Coulomb…
Since the discovery of the $J/\psi$, the quark model was very successful in describing the spectrum and properties of heavy mesons including only $q\bar q$ components. However since 2003, with the discovery of the $X(3872)$, many states…
