Molecular Interpretation of the Supercharmonium State Z(4475)
T. Barnes, F. E. Close, E. S. Swanson
Charm meson molecule (c\bar n)(n\bar c) assignments for the supercharmonium state Z(4475) are considered, both on general grounds and in the context of specific pion exchange model…
Duality in semi-inclusive pion electroproduction
F. E. Close, W. Melnitchouk
We explore quark-hadron duality in semi-inclusive pion electroproduction on proton and neutron targets. Using the spin-flavor symmetric quark model, we compute ratios of pi+ and pi…
Looking for a gift of Nature: Hadron loops and hybrid mixing
F. E. Close, C. E. Thomas
We investigate how coupling of valence q qbar to meson pairs can modify the properties of conventional q qbar and hybrid mesons. In a symmetry limit the mixing between hybrids and…
Scalar glueball production in hadronic decays
Q. Zhao, F. E. Close
The recent data for hadronic decays from BES raise ``puzzles" about the scalar meson properties, which are different from the naive OZI rule expectation. In this work, we stu…
Pentaquark Symmetries, Selection Rules and another potentially Narrow State
F. E. Close, J. J. Dudek
We identify essential differences between the pentaquark and chiral soliton models of \10bar and {\bf 8} pentaquarks and conventional {\bf 8} states, which are experime…
The partner to the baryon
J. J. Dudek, F. E. Close
If the exotic baryon is with , we predict that there is a \10bar with containing a . The width $Γ(Θ^* \to KN)…
