and its Partners in the Diabatic Born-Oppenheimer Approximation for QCD
Fareed Alasiri, Eric Braaten, Roberto Bruschini
In the Born-Oppenheimer approximation for QCD, the exotic hidden-charm tetraquark meson is a near-threshold bound state in Born-Oppenheimer potentials associated wi…

Hidden-Heavy Pentaquarks and Where to Find Them
Fareed Alasiri, Eric Braaten, Roberto Bruschini
We provide a simple explanation for the observed hidden-charm pentaquarks as bound states in Born-Oppenheimer potentials. We identify , …

Born-Oppenheimer Potentials for Gauge Theory
Fareed Alasiri, Eric Braaten, Abhishek Mohapatra
We develop parameterizations of 8 of the lowest Born-Oppenheimer potentials for quarkonium hybrid mesons as functions of the separation of the static quark and antiquark source…
