The bottom-charmed meson spectrum from a QCD approach based on Tamm--Dancoff approximation

The bottom-charmed meson spectrum is studied in this work via an effective version of the Coulomb gauge QCD Hamiltonian. The Tamm-Dancoff approximation is employed to estimate the energies of the low-lying and radial-excited $B_c$ states with quantum numbers $J^P = 0^{-}, 0^{+}, 1^{-}, 1^{+}, 2^{+}, 2^{-}$. In particular, we analyze the effects of incorporating an effective transverse hyperfine interaction and spin mixing. The Regge trajectories and hyperfine splitting of both $S$- and $P$-wave states are also examined. The numerical results are compared with available experimental data and theoretical predictions of other models.

Revisiting the tensor $J^{PC} = 2^{--}$ meson spectrum

This work is devoted to the discussion and characterization of the tensor $2^{-(-)}$ meson spectrum, by making use of the Coulomb gauge Hamiltonian approach to QCD, with the interactions being given by an improved confining potential and a transverse hyperfine interaction, whose kernel is a Yukawa-type potential. Our aim is to study the basic features of $2^{-(-)}$ mesons within an unified framework through the whole range of quark masses. We concentrate our investigation on predictions of expected but yet-unobserved ground states of unflavored light mesons and on charmonium and bottomonium states. The numerical results are compared with existing literature.
