Prediction of an Tetraquark Resonance Close to the Threshold Using Lattice QCD Potentials

arXiv:2412.06607 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.111.054507

Abstract

We use antistatic-antistatic potentials computed with lattice QCD and a coupled-channel Born-Oppenheimer approach to explore the existence of a tetraquark resonance with quantum numbers . A pole in the $\mbox{T}$ matrix signals a resonance with mass and decay width , i.e. very close to the threshold. We also compute branching ratios, which clearly indicate that this resonance is mainly composed of a meson pair with a significantly smaller contribution. By varying the potential matrix responsible for the coupling of the and the channel as well as the quark mass, we provide additional insights and understanding concerning the formation and existence of the resonance. We also comment on the importance of our findings and the main takeaways for a possible future full lattice QCD investigation of this tetraquark resonance.
