We perform a high statistics study of the $J^{P}=0^{+}$ and $1^{+}$ charmed-strange mesons, $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$, respectively. The effects of the nearby $DK$ and $D^{*}K$ thresholds are taken into account by employing the corresponding four quark operators. Six ensembles with $N_f=2$ non-perturbatively ${cal O}(a)$ improved clover Wilson sea quarks at $a=0.07$ fm are employed, covering different spatial volumes and pion masses: linear lattice extents $L/a=24,32,40,64$, equivalent to 1.7 fm to 4.5 fm, are realised for $m_{pi}=290$ MeV and $L/a=48,64$ or 3.4 fm and 4.5 fm for an almost physical pion mass of $150$ MeV. Through a phase shift analysis and the effective range approximation we determine the scattering lengths, couplings to the thresholds and the infinite volume masses. Differences relative to the experimental values are observed for these masses, however, this is likely to be due to discretisation effects as spin-averaged quantities and splittings are reasonably compatible with experiment. We also compute the weak decay constants of the scalar and axialvector and find $f_V^{0^+}=114(2)(0)(+5)(10)$ MeV and $f_A^{1^+}=194(3)(4)(+5)(10)$ MeV, where the errors are due to statistics, renormalisation, finite volume and lattice spacing effects.
In this talk I present the results obtained using effective field theories in a finite volume from a reanalysis of lattice data on the $KD^{(*)}$ systems, where bound states of $KD$ and $KD^*$ are found and associated with the states $D^*_{s0}(2317)$ and $D^*_{s1}(2460)$, respectively. We confirm the presence of such states on the lattice data and determine the weight of the $KD$ channel in the wave function of $D^*_{s0}(2317)$ and that of $KD^*$ in the wave function of $D^*_{s1}(2460)$. Our results indicate a large meson-meson component in both cases.
The scalar meson $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ is found 37(17)MeV below DK threshold in a lattice simulation of the $J^P=0^+$ channel using, for the first time, both DK as well as $bar sc$ interpolating fields. The simulation is done on $N_f=2+1$ gauge configurations with $m_pisimeq 156 $MeV, and the resulting $M_{D_{s0}^*}-tfrac{1}{4}(M_{D_s}+3M_{D_s^*})=266(16)$ MeV is close to the experimental value 241.5(0.8)MeV. The energy level related to the scalar meson is accompanied by additional discrete levels due to DK scattering states. The levels near threshold lead to the negative DK scattering length $a_0=-1.33(20)$ fm that indicates the presence of a state below threshold.
We investigate the $D_{s0}^ast(2317)$ meson using lattice QCD and considering correlation functions of several $bar{c} s$ two-quark and $bar{c} s (bar{u} u + bar{d} d)$ four-quark interpolating fields. These interpolating fields generate different structures in color, spin and position space including quark-antiquark pairs, tetraquarks and two-meson scattering states. For our computation we use an ensemble simulated with pion mass $m_pi approx 0.296 , textrm{GeV}$ and spatial volume of extent $2.90 , textrm{fm}$. We find in addition to the expected spectrum of two-meson scattering states another state around $60 , textrm{MeV}$ below the $D K$ threshold, which we interpret as the $D_{s0}^ast(2317)$ meson. This state couples predominantly to a quark-antiquark interpolating field and only weakly to a $D K$ two-meson interpolating field. The coupling to the tetraquark interpolating fields is essentially zero, rendering a tetraquark interpretation of the $D_{s0}^ast(2317)$ meson rather unlikely. Moreover, we perform a scattering analysis using Luschers method and the effective range approximation to determine the $D_{s0}^ast(2317)$ mass for infinite spatial volume. We find this mass $51 , textrm{MeV}$ below the $D K$ threshold, rather close to both our finite volume result and the experimentally observed value.
In this work, we systematically investigate the heavy-strange meson systems, $D^{(*)}K^{(*)}/bar{B}^{(*)}K^{(*)}$ and $bar{D}^{(*)}K^{(*)}/B^{(*)}K^{(*)}$, to study possible molecules in a quasipotenial Bethe-Salpter equation approach together with the one-boson-exchange model. The potential is achieved with the help of the hidden-gau ge Lagrangians. Molecular states are found from all six S-wave isoscalar interactions of $D^{(*)}K^{(*)}/bar{B}^{(*)}K^{(*)}$. The charmed-strange mesons $D^*_{s0}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ can be related to the ${D}K$ and $D^*K$ states with spin parities $0^+$ and $1^+$, respectively. The recent observed $B_{sJ}(6158)$ may be assigned as a $bar{B}K^*$ molecular state with $1^+$. Four molecular states are produced from the interactions of $bar{D}^{(*)}K^{(*)}/B^{(*)}K^{(*)}$, among which the $bar{D}^*{K}^*$ molecular state with $0^+$ can be related to the $X_0(2900)$. No isovector molecular states are found in the interactions considered. The current results are helpful to understand the internal structure of $D^*_{s0}(2317)$, $D_{s1}(2460)$, $X_0(2900)$, and new $B_{sJ}$ states. The experimental research for more heavy-strange meson molecules are suggested.
We review recent progress in the calculation of the decay constants $f_{D}$ and $f_{D_s}$ from lattice QCD. We focus particularly on simulations with $N_f=2+1$ and $N_f=2+1+1$ and simulations with close to physical light quark masses.
