Reboiro Departamento de Física, Universidad Nacional de La Plata, c.c. 67 1900, La Plata, Argentina (Received 29 January 2004; published 23 August 2004) A schematic model for hadronic states, based on constituent quarks and antiquarks and gluon pairs, is discussed. The phenomenological interaction between quarks and gluons is QCD motivated. The obtained hadronic spectrum leads to the identification of nucleon and ⌬ resonances and to pentaquark and heptaquark ͑ ␲ 1 −͒ states. The predicted lowest pentaquark state J = 2 lies at the energy of 1.5 GeV and it is associated to the ⌰+͑ ͒ ͑ ␲ 1 + 3 +͒ observed 1540 state. For heptaquarks J = 2 , 2 the model predicts the lowest state at 2.5 GeV. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevC.70.025201 PACS number(s): 24.85.ϩp, 12.39.Ϫx, 14.20.Ϫc I.

  • The End of the Constituent Quark Model?
    The End of the Constituent Quark Model? F.E. Close Department of Theoretical Physics, University of Oxford, 1 Keble Rd., Oxford, OX1 3NP, United Kingdom; [email protected] Abstract. In this conference summary talk at Hadron03, questions and challenges for Hadron physics of light flavours are outlined. Precision data and recent discoveries are at last exposing the limitations of the naive constituent quark model and also giving hints as to its extension into a more mature description of hadrons. These notes also pay special attention to the positive strangeness baryon Θ+(1540) and include a pedagogic discussion of wavefunctions in the pentaquark picture, their relation with the Skyrme model and related issues of phenomenology. Introduction My brief was to concentrate on light hadrons; but where do heavy hadrons end and light begin? I shall focus on what heavy flavours can teach us about light, and vice versa. The possible discovery of an exotic and metastable baryon with positive strangeness, the Θ+(1540), has led to an explosion of interest in recent months and throughout this conference. There was a dedicated discussion session about it, which highlighted much confusion. In the hope of clarifying some of the issues, I have decided to devote a considerable part of this summary to a pedagogic description of wavefunctions and a review of some of the emerging literature that drew comment at the conference. Light Hadron Spectroscopy and Dynamics: Present and Future arXiv:hep-ph/0311087v1 6 Nov 2003 As regards the future of light hadrons experimentally: we have heard of several examples of innovative methods involving high energy machines.

First, we revisit and summarize our accurate mass measurements of low-lying 5Q states with J = 1/2 and I = 0 in both positive- and negative-parity channels in anisotropic lattice QCD. The lowest positive-parity 5Q state is found to have a large mass of about 2.24 GeV after the chiral extrapolation. To single out the compact 5Q state from NK scattering states, we use the hybrid boundary condition (HBC), and find no evidence of the com- pact 5Q state below 1.75 GeV in the negative-parity channel. Second, we study the multi-quark po- tential in lattice QCD to clarify the inter-quark interaction in multi-quark systems.

  • Are the Anti-Charmed and Bottomed Pentaquarks Molecular Heptaquarks?
    Are the anti-charmed and bottomed pentaquarks molecular heptaquarks? P. Bicudo∗ Dep. F´ısica and CFIF, Instituto Superior T´ecnico, Av. Rovisco Pais, 1049-001 Lisboa, Portugal I study the charmed uuddc¯ resonance D∗−p (3100) very recently discovered by the H1 collabo- ration at Hera. An anticharmed resonance was already predicted, in a recent publication mostly dedicated to the S=1 resonance Θ+(1540). To confirm these recent predictions, I apply the same standard quark model with a quark-antiquark annihilation constrained by chiral symmetry. I find ∗− ∗− that repulsion excludes the D p (3100) as a uuddc¯ s-wave pentaquark. I explore the D p (3100) as a heptaquark, equivalent to a N − π − D∗ linear molecule, with positive parity and total isospin I = 0. I find that the N − D repulsion is cancelled by the attraction existing in the N − π and π − D channels. In our framework this state is harder to bind than the Θ+ described by a k − π − N borromean bound-state, a lower binding energy is expected in agreement with the H1 observation. ∗ Multiquark molecules N − π − D, N − π − B and N − π − B are also predicted.
