XYZ -- spectra from QCD Laplace Sum Rules at Higher Orders

Abstract

We review our results in Refs.[1,2] for the masses and couplings of heavy-light DD(BB)-like molecules and (Qq)(Qq)-like four-quark states from relativistic QCD Laplace sum rules (LSR) where next-to-next-to-leading order (N2LO) PT corrections in the chiral limit, next-to-leading order (NLO) SU3 PT corrections and non-perturbative contributions up to dimension d=6-8 are included. The factorization properties of molecule and four-quark currents have been used for the estimate of the higher order PT corrections. New integrated compact expressions of the spectral functions at leading order (LO) of perturbative QCD and up to dimensions d< (6 - 8) non-perturbative condensates are presented. The results are summarized in Tables 5 to 10, from which we conclude, within the errors, that the observed XZ states are good candidates for being 1^{++} and 0^{++} molecules or/and four-quark states, contrary to the observed Y states which are too light compared to the predicted 1^{-\pm} and 0^{-\pm} states. We find that the SU3 breakings are relatively small for the masses (< 10(resp. 3)%) for the charm (resp. bottom) channels while they are large (< 20%) for the couplings which decrease faster (1/m_{b}^{3/2}) than 1/m_{b}^{1/2} of HQET. QCD spectral sum rules (QSSR) approach cannot clearly separate (within the errors) molecules from four-quark states having the same quantum numbers. Results for the BK (DK)-like molecules and (Qq)(us)-like four-quark states from [3] are also reviewed which do not favour the molecule or/and four-quark interpretation of the X(5568). We suggest to scan the charm (2327 ~ 2444) MeV and bottom (5173 ~ 5226) MeV regions for detecting the (unmixed)(cu)ds and (bu)ds states. We expect that future experimental data and lattice results will check our predictions.

Axionic Wormholes in Metric-Affine Gravity

The axion is a promising candidate for solving the strong CP problem. To solve this problem, the global U(1) symmetry must be preserved to a high degree of accuracy. However, it is well known that global symmetries are explicitly violated by quantum gravity effects, giving rise to what is referred to as the axion quality problem. In this paper, we investigate axionic wormholes as a source of explicit U(1) violation in Metric-Affine Gravity. This framework allows for spacetime torsion and non-metricity, which accommodate additional curvature-like and topological terms, such as the Holst and Nieh--Yan terms, that are absent from the metric and Palatini formalisms. We show that non-minimal couplings to these terms modify the wormhole dynamics and enhance the Euclidean wormhole action, thereby alleviating the axion quality problem. We also find that the viable parameter space is enlarged when two of these couplings are simultaneously present. We further identify representative parameter regions where the alleviation of the axion quality problem is compatible with inflationary constraints.

Qubit-Qutrit Quantum Tomography of hadronic $\Lambda\phi$ and $\Lambda K^{\ast 0}$ systems

Quantum-information observables have emerged in recent years as new tools in nuclear and particle physics, from entanglement in top-quark pairs to spin correlations in $\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}$ production. Extending these studies to unequal-spin hadronic final states poses a fundamental challenge: the $6\times6$ density matrix of a qubit-qutrit system contains 35 independent spin parameters, but the decays of $\Lambda V$ pairs, with $V=\phi$ or $K^{*0}$, provide access to only 23 due to the hidden vector polarization from the strong decay. In this Letter, we formulate a qubit-qutrit quantum tomography (QQQT) technique for these spin-$\tfrac{1}{2}\otimes1$ systems and establish exact criteria for entanglement certification from the \textit{incomplete} density matrix. Compared with the $\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}$ system, QQQT of $\Lambda\phi$ and $\Lambda K^{*0}$ provides a new probe of nonperturbative QCD hadronization, enabling a direct comparison of the spin evolution of entangled quark pairs produced from the vacuum as they hadronize into a baryon or a vector meson.

Twist decomposition of exclusive heavy meson production cross sections

We study the twist decomposition of the total cross sections for exclusive heavy vector meson electroproduction and photoproduction in the $\gamma^\ast p$ processes, within the leading logarithmic $1/x$ BFKL formalism. The Mellin transforms of the impact factors of the vector meson are calculated. We show that the higher twist contributions are strongly suppressed in the low-$x$ kinematical regime. Possible enhancement of the higher twists effects for nuclei targets is discussed.
