Lee-Yang zeros in lattice QCD for searching phase transition points

We report Lee-Yang zeros behavior at finite temperature and density. The quark number densities, , are calculated at the pure imaginary chemical potential, where no sign problem occurs. Then, the canonical partition functions, Z_C(n,T,V), up to some maximal values of n are estimated through fitting theoretically motivated functions to , which are used to compute the Lee-Yang zeros. We study the temperature dependence of the distributions of the Lee-Yang zeros around the pseudo-critical temperature region T/T_c = 0.84 - 1.35. In the distributions of the Lee-Yang zeros, we observe the Roberge-Weiss phase transition at T/T_c >= 1.20. We discuss the dependence of the behaviors of Lee-Yang zeros on the maximal value of n, so that we can estimate a reliable infinite volume limit.

Lattice QCD at finite baryon density using analytic continuation

We simulate lattice QCD with two flavors of Wilson fermions at imaginary baryon chemical potential. Results for the baryon number density computed in the confining and deconfining phases at imaginary baryon chemical potential are used to determine the baryon number density and higher cumulants at the real chemical potential via analytical continuation.

Survival of charmonia above Tc in anisotropic lattice QCD

We find a strong evidence for the survival of $J/Ψ$ and $η_c$ as spatially-localized $c\bar c$ (quasi-)bound states above the QCD critical temperature $T_c$, by investigating the boundary-condition dependence of their energies and spectral functions. In a finite-volume box, there arises a boundary-condition dependence for spatially spread states, while no such dependence appears for spatially compact states. In lattice QCD, we find almost {\it no} spatial boundary-condition dependence for the energy of the $c\bar c$ system in $J/Ψ$ and $η_c$ channels for $T\simeq(1.11-2.07)T_c$. We also investigate the spectral function of charmonia above $T_c$ in lattice QCD using the maximum entropy method (MEM) in terms of the boundary-condition dependence. There is {\it no} spatial boundary-condition dependence for the low-lying peaks corresponding to $J/Ψ$ and $η_c$ around 3GeV at $1.62T_c$. These facts indicate the survival of $J/Ψ$ and $η_c$ as compact $c\bar c$ (quasi-)bound states for $T_c < T < 2T_c$.

Inter-Quark Potentials in Baryons and Multi-Quark Systems in QCD

We perform the first studies of various inter-quark potentials in SU(3)$_{\rm c}$ lattice QCD. From the accurate lattice calculation for more than 300 different patterns of three-quark (3Q) systems, we find that the static 3Q potential $V_{\rm 3Q}$ is well described by Y-Ansatz, i.e., the Coulomb plus Y-type linear potential. Quark confinement mechanism in baryons is also investigated in maximally-Abelian projected QCD. We next study the multi-quark potentials $V_{n{\rm Q}}$ ($n$=4,5) in SU(3)$_{\rm c}$ lattice QCD, and find that they are well described by the one-gluon-exchange Coulomb plus multi-Y type linear potential, which supports the flux-tube picture even for the multi-quarks. Finally, we study the heavy-heavy-light quark (QQq) potential both in lattice QCD and in a lattice-QCD-based quark model.

Scalar-Quark Systems and Chimera Hadrons in SU(3)_c Lattice QCD

Light scalar-quarks ϕ(colored scalar particles or idealized diquarks) and their color-singlet hadronic states are studied with quenched SU(3)_c lattice QCD in terms of mass generation in strong interaction without chiral symmetry breaking. We investigate ``scalar-quark mesons'' ϕ^\dagger ϕand ``scalar-quark baryons'' ϕϕϕwhich are the bound states of scalar-quarks ϕ. We also investigate the bound states of scalar-quarks ϕand quarks ψ, i.e., ϕ^\dagger ψ, ψψϕand ϕϕψ, which we name ``chimera hadrons''. All the new-type hadrons including ϕare found to have a large mass even for zero bare scalar-quark mass m_ϕ=0 at a^{-1}\simeq 1GeV. We find that the constituent scalar-quark and quark picture is satisfied for all the new-type hadrons. Namely, the mass of the new-type hadron composed of m ϕ's and n ψ's, M_{{m}ϕ+{n}ψ}, satisfies M_{{m}ϕ+{n}ψ}\simeq {m} M_ϕ+{n} M_ψ, where M_ϕand M_ψare the constituent scalar-quark and quark mass, respectively. M_ϕat m_ϕ=0 estimated from these new-type hadrons is 1.5-1.6GeV, which is larger than that of light quarks, M_ψ\simeq 400{\rm MeV}. Therefore, in the systems of scalar-quark hadrons and chimera hadrons, scalar-quarks acquire large mass due to large quantum corrections by gluons. Together with other evidences of mass generations of glueballs and charmonia, we conjecture that all colored particles generally acquire a large effective mass due to dressed gluon effects.

Bound States of (Anti-)Scalar-Quarks in SU(3)_c Lattice QCD

Light scalar-quarks ϕ(colored scalar particles or idealized diquarks) and their color-singlet hadronic states are studied with quenched SU(3)_c lattice QCD in terms of mass generation. We investigate ``scalar-quark mesons'' ϕ^\dagger ϕand ``scalar-quark baryons'' ϕϕϕas the bound states of scalar-quarks ϕ. We also investigate the bound states of scalar-quarks ϕand quarks ψ, i.e., ϕ^\dagger ψ, ψψϕand ϕϕψ, which we name ``chimera hadrons''. All the new-type hadrons including ϕare found to have a large mass due to large quantum corrections by gluons, even for zero bare scalar-quark mass m_ϕ=0 at a^{-1}\sim 1{\rm GeV}. We conjecture that all colored particles generally acquire a large effective mass due to dressed gluon effects.

Charmonium properties in deconfinement phase in anisotropic lattice QCD

J/Psi and eta_c above the QCD critical temperature T_c are studied in anisotropic quenched lattice QCD, considering whether the c\bar c systems above T_c are spatially compact (quasi-)bound states or scattering states. We adopt the standard Wilson gauge action and O(a)-improved Wilson quark action with renormalized anisotropy a_s/a_t =4.0 at β=6.10 on 16^3\times (14-26) lattices, which correspond to the spatial lattice volume V\equiv L^3\simeq(1.55{\rm fm})^3 and temperatures T\simeq(1.11-2.07)T_c. We investigate the c\bar c system above T_c from the temporal correlators with spatially-extended operators, where the overlap with the ground state is enhanced. To clarify whether compact charmonia survive in the deconfinement phase, we investigate spatial boundary-condition dependence of the energy of c\bar c systems above T_c. In fact, for low-lying S-wave c \bar c scattering states, it is expected that there appears a significant energy difference ΔE \equiv E{\rm (APBC)}-E{\rm (PBC)}\simeq2\sqrt{m_c^2+3π^2/L^2}-2m_c (m_c: charm quark mass) between periodic and anti-periodic boundary conditions on the finite-volume lattice. In contrast, for compact charmonia, there is no significant energy difference between periodic and anti-periodic boundary conditions. As a lattice QCD result, almost no spatial boundary-condition dependence is observed for the energy of the c\bar c system in J/Ψand η_c channels for T\simeq(1.11-2.07)T_c. This fact indicates that J/Ψand η_c would survive as spatially compact c\bar c (quasi-)bound states below 2T_c. We also investigate a $P$-wave channel at high temperature with maximally entropy method (MEM) and find no low-lying peak structure corresponding to χ_{c1} at 1.62T_c.

Anisotropic lattice QCD studies of penta-quarks and tetra-quarks

Anisotropic lattice QCD studies of penta-quarks(5Q) with J^P=1/2^\pm and 3/2^{\pm} are presented at the quenched level together with tetra-quarks(4Q). The standard gauge action at β=5.75 and O(a) improved quark (clover) action with κ=0.1410(0.010)0.1440 are employed on the anisotropic lattice with the renormalized anisotropy a_s/a_t = 4. The ``hybrid boundary condition(HBC)'' is adopted to discriminate a compact resonance state from scattering states. Only massive 5Q states are found for J^P=1/2^+ and 3/2^{\pm}, which cannot be identified as Θ^+(1540). A low-lying 5Q state is found for J^P=1/2^- at m_{5Q}\simeq 1.75 GeV, which however turns out to be an NK scattering state through the HBC analysis. A preliminary result for 4Q states is presented suggesting an existence of a compact 4Q resonance at m_{4Q} \simeq 1.1 GeV in the idealized SU(4)_f chiral limit.

Tetraquark and Pentaquark Systems in Lattice QCD

Motivated by the recent experimental discoveries of multi-quark candidates, e.g., the $Θ^+(1540)$, we study multi-quark systems in lattice QCD. First, we perform 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 2.24GeV after the chiral extrapolation. To single out the compact 5Q state from $NK$ scattering states, we develop a new method with the hybrid-boundary condition (HBC), and find no evidence of the compact 5Q state below 1.75GeV in the negative-parity channel. Second, we perform the first study of the multi-quark potential in lattice QCD to clarify the inter-quark interaction in multi-quark systems. The 5Q potential $V_{\rm 5Q}$ for the QQ-${\rm \bar{Q}}$-QQ system is found to be well described by the ``OGE Coulomb plus multi-Y Ansatz": the sum of the one-gluon-exchange (OGE) Coulomb term and the multi-Y-type linear term based on the flux-tube picture. The 4Q potential $V_{\rm 4Q}$ for the QQ-${\rm \bar{Q}\bar{Q}}$ system is also described by the OGE Coulomb plus multi-Y Ansatz, when QQ and $\rm \bar Q \bar Q$ are well separated. The 4Q system is described as a "two-meson" state with disconnected flux tubes, when the nearest quark and antiquark pair is spatially close. We observe a lattice-QCD evidence for the ``flip-flop'', i.e., the flux-tube recombination between the connected 4Q state and the ``two-meson'' state. On the confinement mechanism, the lattice QCD results indicate the flux-tube-type linear confinement in multi-quark hadrons.

Penta-quark in Anisotropic Lattice QCD

Penta-quark (5Q) baryons are studied using anisotropic lattice QCD for high-precision measurement of temporal correlators. A non-NK-type interpolating field is employed to study the 5Q states with J^P=1/2^{\pm} and I=0. In J^P=1/2^+ channel, the lowest-lying state is found at m_{5Q} \simeq 2.25 GeV, which is too massive to be identified as the Theta^+(1540). In J^P=1/2^- channel, the lowest-lying state is found at m_{5Q} \simeq 1.75 GeV. To distinguish a compact 5Q resonance state from an NK scattering state, a new method with ``hybrid boundary condition (HBC)'' is proposed. As a result of the HBC analysis, the observed state in the negative-parity channel turns out to be an $NK$ scattering state.

Anisotropic Lattice QCD Studies of Penta-quark Anti-decuplet

Anti-decuplet penta-quark baryon is studied with the quenched anisotropic lattice QCD for accurate measurement of the correlator. Both the positive and negative parity states are studied using a non-NK type interpolating field with I=0 and J=1/2. After the chiral extrapolation, the lowest positive parity state is found at m_{Theta} \simeq 2.25 GeV, which is too massive to be identified with the experimentally observed Theta^+(1540). The lowest negative parity state is found at m_{Theta}\simeq 1.75 GeV, which is rather close to the empirical value. To confirm that this state is a compact 5Q resonance, a new method with ``hybrid boundary condition (HBC)'' is proposed. The HBC analysis shows that the observed state in the negative parity channel is an NK scattering state.

Penta-Quark Anti-Decuplet in Anisotropic Lattice QCD

The penta-quark(5Q) Theta^+(1540) is studied in anisotropic lattice QCD with renormalized anisotropy a_s/a_t=4 for a high-precision measurement. Both the positive and the negative parity 5Q baryons are studied using a non-NK type interpolating field with I=0 and J=1/2. After the chiral extrapolation, the lowest positive parity state is found at m_{Theta}\simeq 2.25 GeV, which is too heavy to be identified with Theta^+(1540). In the negative parity channel, the lowest energy state is found at m_{Theta}\simeq 1.75 GeV. Although it is rather close to the empirical value, it is considered to be an NK scattering state rather than a localized resonance state.

Penta-quark baryon in anisotropic lattice QCD

The penta-quark(5Q) baryon is studied in anisotropic quenched lattice QCD with renormalized anisotropy a_s/a_t=4 for a high-precision mass measurement. The standard Wilson action at beta=5.75 and the O(a) improved Wilson quark action with kappa=0.1210(0.0010)0.1240 are employed on a 12^3 \times 96 lattice. Contribution of excited states is suppressed by using a smeared source. We investigate both the positive- and negative-parity 5Q baryons with I=0 and spin J=1/2 using a non-NK-type interpolating field. After chiral extrapolation, the lowest positive-parity state is found to have a mass, m_{Theta}=2.25 GeV, which is much heavier than the experimentally observed Theta^+(1540). The lowest negative-parity 5Q appears at m_{Theta}=1.75 GeV, which is near the s-wave NK threshold. To distinguish spatially-localized 5Q resonances from NK scattering states, we propose a new general method imposing a ``Hybrid Boundary Condition (HBC)'', where the NK threshold is artificially raised without affecting compact five-quark states. The study using the HBC method shows that the negative-parity state observed on the lattice is not a compact 5Q but an s-wave NK-scattering state.
