Heptaquarks with two heavy antiquarks in a simple chromomagnetic model

We investigate the symmetry property and the stability of the heptaquark containing two identical heavy antiquarks using color-spin interaction. We construct the wave function of the heptaquark from the Pauli exclusion principle in the SU(3) breaking case. The stability of the heptaquark against the strong decay into one baryon and two mesons is discussed in a simple chromomagnetic model. We find that $q^2 s^3 \bar{s}^2$ with $I=0,S=\frac{5}{2}$ is the most stable heptaquark configuration that could be probed by reconstructing the $Λ+ϕ+ϕ$ invariant mass.

$P_c(4380)$ in a constituent quark model

The constituent quark model with color-spin hyperfine potential is used to investigate the property of a compact pentaquark configuration with $J^p$=$3/2^-$ and isospin=1/2, which is the most likely quantum number of one of the recently observed exotic baryon states at LHCb. Starting from the characterization of the isospin, color, and spin states for the pentaquark configuration, we construct the total wave function composed of the spatial wave function, which we take to be symmetric and in S-wave, and the four orthogonal isospin $\otimes$ color $\otimes$ spin states that satisfy the Pauli principle. We then use the variational method to find a compact stable configuration. While there are compact configurations where the hyperfine potential is more attractive than the sum of $p$ and $J/ψ$ hyperfine potentials, we find that the ground state is the isolated $p$ and $J/ψ$ state. Furthermore, the mass of the excited state lies far above the observed pentaquark state leading us to conclude that the observed states can not be a compact multiquark configuration with $J^p$=$3/2^-$.

Dibaryons with two strange quarks and one heavy flavor in a constituent quark model

We investigate the symmetry property and the stability of dibaryons containing two strange quarks and one heavy flavor with $I=\frac{1}{2}$. We construct the wave function of the dibaryon in two ways. First, we directly construct the color and spin state of the dibaryon starting from the four possible SU(3) flavor state. Second, we consider the states composed of five light quarks, and then construct the wave function of the dibaryon by adding one heavy quark. The stability of the dibaryon against the strong decay into two baryons is discussed by using variational method in a constituent quark model with confining and hyperfine potential. We find that for all configurations with S=0,1,2, the ground states of the dibaryons are the sum of two baryons, and there are no compact bound state that is stable against the strong decay.

Dibaryons with two strange quarks and total spin zero in a constituent quark model

We investigate the symmetry property and construct the wave function of the dibaryon states containing two strange quarks with S=0 in both the flavor SU(3) symmetric and breaking cases. We discuss how the color $\otimes$ isospin $\otimes$ spin states of dibaryon in the symmetry broking case of flavor SU(3) can be extracted from the fully antisymmetric states in flavor SU(3). The stability of the dibaryon against the strong decay into two baryons are then discussed, by using the variational method within a constituent quark model with a confining and color-spin interactions. To compare our results with that from lattice QCD in flavor SU(3) limit, we search for the stable H-dibaryon in a wide range of $π$ meson mass. We find that with the given potential, there is no compact six quark dibaryon state in the SU(3) flavor symmetry broken case with realistic quark masses as well as in flavor SU(3) symmetric case in a wide range of quark masses.

The mass of heavy-light mesons in a constituent quark picture with partially restored chiral symmetry

We probe effects of the partial chiral symmetry restoration to the mass of heavy-light mesons in a constituent quark model by changing the constituent quark mass of the light quark. Due to the competing effect between the quark mass and the linearly rising potential, whose contribution to the energy increases as the quark mass decreases, the heavy-light meson mass has a minimum value near the constituent quark mass typically used in the vacuum. Hence, the meson mass increases as one decreases the constituent quark mass consistent with recent QCD sum rule analyses, which show an increasing $D$ meson mass as the chiral order parameter decreases.

Dibaryons in a constituent quark model

We investigate the properties of dibaryons containing u and d quarks in the constituent quark model. In constructing the ground state wave function, we choose the spatial part to be fully symmetric and the remaining color, isospin and spin part to be antisymmetric so as to satisfy the the Pauli principle. By adapting the IS coupling scheme that combine the isospin basis function with the spin basis function, and subsequently coupling this to the color singlet basis function, we construct the color $\otimes$ isospin $\otimes$ spin states compatible with the physical states of the dibaryon. By using the variational method, we then calculate the mass of the dibaryon in a nonrelativistic potential model, involving Coulomb, color confinement and color-spin hyperfine interaction. In particular, to asses the stability for different types of the confinement potential, we introduce one that is linearly proportional to the interquark distance and another to its square root. For all cases considered, we find that there are no compact bound states against the strong decay.
