Axial Vector Tetraquark with Two s-quarks

Possibility of an axial vector isoscalar tetraquark $ud\bar{s}\bar{s}$ is discussed. If a $f_1$ meson in the mass region $1.4-1.5$ GeV consists of four quarks $ns\bar{n}\bar{s}$, the mass of the isoscalar $ud\bar{s}\bar{s}$($\vartheta^+$-meson) state with $J^P=1^+$ is expected to be lower than that of the $f_1$ meson. Within a flux-tube quark model, a possible resonant state of $ud\bar{s}\bar{s}(J^{P}=1^{+})$ is suggested to appear at $\sim$ 1.4 GeV with the width ${\cal{O}}(20\sim 50)$ MeV. We propose that the $\vartheta^+$-meson is the good candidate for the tetraquark search, which would be observed in the $K^+K^+π^-$ decay channel.

Negative parity states of $^{11}$B and $^{11}$C and the similarity with $^{12}C

The negative parity states of $^{11}$B and $^{11}$C were studied based on the calculations of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics(AMD). The calculations well reproduced the experimental strengths of Gamov-Teller(GT), $M1$ and monopole transitions. We, especially, focused on the $3/2^-_3$ and $5/2^-_2$ states, for which GT transition strengths were recently measured. The weak $M1$ and GT transitions for the $3/2^-_3$ in $^{11}$B and $^{11}$C are described by a well-developed cluster structure of $2α$+$t$ and $2α$+$^3$He, respectively, while the strong transitions for the $5/2^-_2$ is characterized by an intrinsic spin excitation with no cluster structure. It was found that the $3/2^-_3$ state is a dilute cluster state, and its features are similar to those of the $^{12}$C$(0^+_2)$ which is considered to be a gas state of three $α$ clusters.

Positive and negative-parity flavor-octet baryons in coupled QCD sum rules

We apply the method of the QCD sum rule, in which positive- and negative-parity baryons couple with each other, to the flavor-octet hyperons and investigate the parity splittings. We also reexamine the nucleon in the method, which was studied in our previous paper, by carefully choosing the Borel weight. Both in the nucleon and hyperon channels the obtained sum rules turn out to have a very good Borel stability and also have a Borel window, an energy region in which the OPE converges and the pole contribution dominates over the continuum contribution. The predicted masses of the positive- and negative-parity baryons reproduce the experimental ones fairly well in the $Λ$ and $Σ$ channels, if we assign the $Λ(1670)$ and the $Σ(1620)$ to the parity partners of the $Λ$ and the $Σ$, respectively. This implies that the $Λ(1405)$ is not the party partner of the $Λ$ and may be a flavor-singlet or exotic state. In the $Ξ$ channel, the sum rule predicts the mass of the negative-parity state to be about 1.8 GeV, which leads to two possibilities; one is that the observed state with the closest mass, $Ξ(1690)$, is the parity partner and the other is that the parity partner is not yet found but exists around 1.8 GeV.

Explicit treatment of tensor force with a method of Antisymmetrized Molecular Dynamics

In order to treat tensor force explicitly, we propose a microscopic model for nuclear structure based on antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD). As a result of the present study, it is found that some extentions of the AMD method are effective to incorporate the tensor correlation into wave functions. Calculating the deuteron, triton and $^4$He with the extended version of AMD, we obtained solutions that have large contribution of the tensor force. By analyzing the wave funtion of $^4$He, it is found that its single-particle orbits are composed of normal-size $0s$ orbits and shrunk $p$ orbits so as to gain the tensor force.

Spin-3/2 pentaquark in the QCD sum rule

We study $IJ^P=0{3/2}^\pm$ and $1{3/2}^\pm$ pentaquark states with $S=+1$ in the QCD sum rule approach. The QCD sum rule for positive parity states and that for negative parity are independently derived. The sum rule suggests that there exist the $0{3/2}^-$ and the $1{3/2}^-$ states. These states may be observed as extremely narrow peaks since they can be much below the $S$-wave threshold and since the only allowed decay channels are $NK$ in $D$-wave, whose centrifugal barriers are so large that the widths are strongly suppressed. The $0{3/2}^-$ state may be assigned to the observed $Θ^+(1540)$ and the $1{3/2}^-$ state can be a candidate for $Θ^{++}$.

Theta++ from QCD sum rule

We study the pentaquark $uudd\bar s$ with $J=3/2$ and I=1 ($Θ^{++}$) in the QCD sum rule approach. We derive the QCD sum rules for positive and negative parity states of the pentaquark. The QCD sum rule predicts that there exists $Θ^{++}$ with negative parity and its mass is $1.5\sim1.6$ GeV. The negative parity $Θ^{++}$ can be extremely narrow, since it lies much below the $ΔK$ threshold and the decay into $KN$ state is strongly suppressed due to the $D$-wave centrifugal barrier. Also, the possibility of the existence of the $Θ^{++}$ with positive parity is not excluded. Although it nearly degenerates with the negative parity state, it may be broader than the negative parity state.

Deformations in N=14 isotones

Systematic analysis of deformations in neutron-rich N=14 isotones was done based on the method of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. The property of the shape coexistence in $^{28}$Si, which is known to have the oblate ground state and the prolate excited states, was successfully described. The results suggest that the shape coexistence may occur also in neutron-rich N=14 nuclei as well as $^{28}$Si. It was found that the oblate neutron shapes are favored because of the spin-orbit force in most of N=14 isotones. $Q$ moments and $E2$ transition strengths in the neutron-rich nuclei were discussed in relation to the intrinsic deformations, and a possible difference between the proton and neutron deformations in $^{24}$Ne was proposed.

Cluster Structures of the Ground and Excited States of 12Be Studied with Antisymmetrized Molecular Dynamics

The structures of the ground and excited states of 12Be were studied with antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. The ground state was found to be a state with a developed 2-alpha core with two neutrons occupying the intruder orbits. The energy levels of the newly measured spin-assigned states were described well, except for the $1^-_1$ state. The calculations indicated that many exotic cluster structures appear in the low-energy region. The widths concerning alpha and 6He decays were discussed by using reduced width amplitudes.
