The Pentaquark Spectrum from Fermi Statistics
Luciano Maiani, Antonio D. Polosa, Veronica Riquer
We study compact hidden charm pentaquarks in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, previously introduced for tetraquarks, assuming the heavy pair to be in a color octet. We show that…
Doubly Heavy Tetraquarks in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation
Luciano Maiani, Alessandro Pilloni, Antonio D. Polosa +1
Tetraquarks QQq*q* are found to be described remarkably well with the Quantum Chromodynamics version of the Hydrogen bond, as treated with the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. We sh…
GGI Lectures on Exotic Hadrons
Luciano Maiani, Alessandro Pilloni
It is well known that M. Gell-Mann, introducing quarks in 1964 to describe the known mesons and baryons, hinted at the existence of further mesons (tetraquarks) an…
Substructure of Multiquark Hadrons (Snowmass 2021 White Paper)
Nora Brambilla, Hua-Xing Chen, Angelo Esposito +27
In recent years there has been a rapidly growing body of experimental evidence for existence of exotic, multiquark hadrons, i.e. mesons which contain additional quarks, beyond the…
J/ψ-pair resonances by LHCb: a new revolution?
Luciano Maiani
A comment on the LHCb discovery of J/psi-pair resonances. To appear in Science Bulletin as a NEWS and VIEWS Paper.
The Hydrogen Bond of QCD
L. Maiani, A. D. Polosa, V. Riquer
Using the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, we show that exotic resonances, X and Z, may emerge as QCD molecular objects made of colored two-quark lumps, states with heavy-light diqu…
