Double-charm and hidden-charm hexaquark states under the complex scaling method

Abstract

We investigate the double-charm and hidden-charm hexaquarks as molecules in the framework of the one-boson-exchange potential model. The multichannel coupling and $S-D$ wave mixing are taken into account carefully. We adopt the complex scaling method to investigate the possible quasibound states, whose widths are from the three-body decay channel $\Lambda_c\Lambda_c\pi$ or $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c\pi$. For the double-charm system of $I(J^P)=1(1^+)$, we obtain a quasibound state, whose width is 0.50 MeV if the binding energy is -14.27 MeV. And the $S$-wave $\Lambda_c\Sigma_c$ and $\Lambda_c\Sigma_c^*$ components give the dominant contributions. For the $1(0^+)$ double-charm hexaquark system, we do not find any pole. We find more poles in the hidden-charm hexaquark system. We obtain one pole as a quasibound state in the $I^G(J^{PC})=1^+(0^{--})$ system, which only has one channel $(\Lambda_c\bar{\Sigma}_c+\Sigma_c\bar{\Lambda}_c)/\sqrt{2}$. Its width is 1.72 MeV with a binding energy of -5.37 MeV. But, we do not find any pole for the scalar $1^-(0^{-+})$ system. For the vector $1^-(1^{-+})$ system, we find a quasibound state. Its energies, widths and constituents are very similar to those of the $1(1^+)$ double-charm case. In the vector $1^+(1^{--})$ system, we get two poles -- a quasibound state and a resonance. The quasibound state has a width of 0.6 MeV with a binding energy of -15.37 MeV. For the resonance, its width is 2.72 MeV with an energy of 63.55 MeV relative to the $\Lambda_c\bar{\Sigma}_c$ threshold. And its partial width from the two-body decay channel $(\Lambda_c\bar{\Sigma}_c-\Sigma_c\bar{\Lambda}_c)/\sqrt{2}$ is apparently larger than the partial width from the three-body decay channel $\Lambda_c\bar{\Lambda}_c\pi$.

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.
