چکیده

Lattice QCD with N f = 2 flavours of sea quark is used to explore the spectrum and decay of scalar mesons. We find evidence that the lightest non-singlet scalar meson (a 0) has a mass of 1.01(4) GeV. We determine from the lattice the coupling strength to KK and πη. We compute the leptonic decay constant of the lightest non-singlet scalar meson. We discuss the impact of these lattice results on the interpretation of the a 0 (980) state. We also discuss K * 0 states.

The decay constant of the first excited pion from lattice QCD UKQCD Collaboration

We review the theory that predicts that the decay constant of the excited light pseudo-scalar mesons are suppressed in the chiral limit relative to the pion decay constant. We compute the decay constant of the first excited pion (π′) using unquenched QCD at a fixed lattice spacing with sea quarks of mass as low as a third the mass of the strange quark. The final result is very sensitive to the ...

The flavour singlet mesons in QCD . UKQCD

We study the flavour singlet mesons from first principles using lattice QCD. We explore the splitting between flavour singlet and non-singlet for vector and axial mesons as well as the more commonly studied cases of the scalar and pseudoscalar mesons.

Mixing of Scalar Glueballs and Flavour-singlet Scalar Mesons Ukqcd Collaboration

We discuss in detail the extraction of hadronic mixing strengths from lattice studies. We apply this to the mixing of a scalar glueball and a scalar meson in the quenched approximation. We also measure correlations appropriate for flavour-singlet scalar mesons using dynamical quark configurations from UKQCD. This enables us to compare the results from the quenched study of the mixing with the d...

Decay width of light quark hybrid meson from the lattice . UKQCD Collaboration

Lattice QCD with N f = 2 flavours of sea quark is used to explore the spectrum and decay of a J P C = 1 −+ spin-exotic hybrid meson. We test lattice determination of S-wave decay amplitudes at threshold using b 1 → πω where agreement with data is found. We find a hybrid meson state at 2.2(2) GeV with a partial width to πb 1 of 400(120) MeV and to πf 1 of 90(60) MeV.

Scalar mesons and tetraquarks by means of lattice QCD European Twisted Mass Collaboration (ETMC):

We study the light scalar mesons a0(980) and κ using N f = 2+ 1+ 1 flavor lattice QCD. In order to probe the internal structure of these scalar mesons, and in particular to identify, whether a sizeable tetraquark component is present, we use a large set of operators, including diquarkantidiquark, mesonic molecule and two-meson operators. The inclusion of disconnected diagrams, which are technic...
