We compute potentials of two static antiquarks in the presence of two quarks qq of finite mass using lattice QCD. In a second step we solve the Schrödinger equation, to determine, whether the resulting potentials are sufficiently attractive to host a bound state, which would indicate the existence of a stable qqb¯b¯ tetraquark. We find a bound state for qq=(ud−du)/2–√ with corresponding quantum numbers I(JP)=0(1+) and evidence against the existence of bound states with isospin I=1 or qq∈{cc,ss}.
We study tetraquark resonances with lattice QCD potentials computed for two static quarks and two dynamical quarks, the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and the emergent wave method of scattering theory. As a proof of concept we focus on systems with isospin I = 0, but consider different relative angular momenta l of the heavy b quarks. We compute the phase shifts and search for S and T matrix poles in the second Riemann sheet. We predict a new tetraquark resonance for l = 1, decaying into two B mesons, with quantum numbers I(JP) = 0(1−), mass MeV and decay width MeV.
We summarize previous work on b̅b̅ud four-quark systems in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and discuss first steps towards an extension to the theoretically more challenging bb̅ud̅ system. Strategies to identify a possibly existing bb̅ud̅ bound state are discussed and first numerical results are presented.
Study of I = 0 bottomonium bound states and resonances based on lattice QCD static potentials
(2022)
We investigate I=0 bottomonium bound states and resonances in S, P, D and F waves using lattice QCD static-static-light-light potentials. We consider five coupled channels, one confined quarkonium and four open B(∗)B¯(∗) and B(∗)sB¯(∗)s meson-meson channels and use the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and the emergent wave method to compute poles of the T matrix. We discuss results for masses and decay widths and compare them to existing experimental results. Moreover, we determine the quarkonium and meson-meson composition of these states to clarify, whether they are ordinary quarkonium or should rather be interpreted as tetraquarks.
