The in-medium masses of the bottomonium ground states [$1S$ ($Upsilon (1S), eta_b$) and $1P$ ($chi_{b0},chi_{b1}$)] are investigated in the magnetized vacuum (nuclear medium), using the QCD sum rule framework. In QCD sum rule approach, the mass modifications are calculated in terms of the medium modifications of the scalar and twist-2 gluon condensates, which are obtained in the nuclear medium, from the medium change of a scalar dilaton field, $chi$ within a chiral effective model. The in-medium masses of the bottomonium ground states are observed to decrease with increasing density. P-wave states are observed to have more appreciable mass-shifts than the S-wave states. In the present investigation, the effects of spin-mixing between 1S bottomonium states, $Upsilon(1S)$ and $eta_b$ are taking into account in presence of an external magnetic field. The contribution of magnetic fields are seen to be dominant via spin-magnetic field interaction effects, which leads to an appreciable rise and drop in the in-medium masses of the longitudinal component of vector $1S$ state ($Upsilon$) and pseudoscalar state ($eta_b$) respectively. For zero magnetic field, the effects of baryon density on the bottomonium ground states in isospin asymmetric nuclear medium are observed to be quite appreciable. These should have observable consequences for the production of the open and hidden bottom meson states resulting from high energy asymmetric nuclear collisions in facilities which probe high density baryonic matter. There is observed to be large contributions to the masses of the longitudinal component of the vector bottomonium state, $Upsilon (1S)$ and pesudoscalar state $eta_b$ in strong magnetic fields.
We have studied the charmonium and bottomonium hybrid states with various $J^{PC}$ quantum numbers in QCD sum rules. At leading order in $alpha_s$, the two-point correlation functions have been calculated up to dimension six including the tri-gluon condensate and four-quark condensate. After performing the QCD sum rule analysis, we have confirmed that the dimension six condensates can stabilize the hybrid sum rules and allow the reliable mass predictions. We have updated the mass spectra of the charmonium and bottomonium hybrid states and identified that the negative-parity states with $J^{PC}=(0, 1, 2)^{-+}, 1^{--}$ form the lightest hybrid supermultiplet while the positive-parity states with $J^{PC}=(0, 1)^{+-}, (0, 1, 2)^{++}$ belong to a heavier hybrid supermultiplet.
The research presented here uses QCD sum rules (QSR) to study exotic hadrons. There are several themes in this work. First is the use of QSR to predict the masses of exotic hadrons that may exist among the heavy quarkonium-like states. The second theme is the application of sophisticated loop integration methods in order to obtain more complete theoretical results. These in turn can be extended to higher orders in the perturbative expansion in order to predict the properties of exotic hadrons more accurately. The third theme involves developing a renormalization methodology for these higher order calculations. This research has implications for the $Y(3940)$, $X(3872)$, $Z_c^pmleft(3895right)$, $Y_bleft(10890right)$, $Z_b^{pm}(10610)$ and $Z_b^{pm}(10650)$ particles, thereby contributing to the ongoing effort to understand these and other heavy quarkonium-like states.
We study the polarized Bjorken sum rule at low momentum transfers in the range $0.22<Q<1.73 {rm GeV}$ with the four-loop N$^3$LO expression for the coefficient function $C_{rm Bj}(alpha_s)$ in the framework of the common QCD perturbation theory (PT) and the singularity-free analytic perturbation theory (APT). The analysis of the PT series for $C_{rm Bj}(alpha_s)$ gives a hint to its asymptotic nature manifesting itself in the region $Q<1$ GeV. It relates to the observation that the accuracy of both the three- and four-loop PT predictions happens to be at the same 10% level. On the other hand, the usage of the two-loop APT allows one to describe the precise low energy JLab data down to $Qsim 300$ MeV and gives a possibility for reliable extraction of the higher twist (HT) corrections. At the same time, above $Qsim 700$ MeV the APT two-loop order with HT is equivalent to the four-loop PT with HT compatible to zero and is adequate to current accuracy of the data.
We derive a new QCD sum rule for $D(0^+)$ which has only the $Dpi$ continuum with a resonance in the hadron side, using the assumption similar to that has been successfully used in our previous work to the mass of $D_s(0^+)(2317)$. For the value of the pole mass $M_c=1.38 $ GeV as used in the $D_s(0^+)$ case we find that the mass of $D(0^+)$ derived from this sum rule is significantly lower than that derived from the sum rule with the pole approximation. Our result is in agreement with the experimental dada from Belle.
We present QCD Laplace sum-rule predictions of ground state masses of heavy-light open-flavour hybrid mesons. Having computed leading-order diagonal correlation functions, including up to dimension six gluon condensate contributions, we extract hybrid mass predictions for all $J^P in {0^pm, 1^pm}$, and explore possible mixing effects with conventional meson states. Similarities are found in the mass hierarchy in both charm and bottom systems with some exceptions that are discussed.
