Nonforward parton distributions of the pion within an effective single instanton approximation
2000
We develop a relativistic quark model for pion structure, which incorporates the non-trivial structure of the vacuum of Quantum Chromodynamics as modelled by instantons. Pions are boundstates of quarks and the strong quark-pion vertex is determined from an instanton induced effective lagrangian. The interaction of the constituents of the pion with the external electromagnetic field is introduced in gauge invariant form. The parameters of the model, i.e., effective instanton radius and constituent quark masses, are obtained from the vacuum expectation values of the lowest dimensional quark and gluon operators and the low-energy observables of the pion. We apply the formalism to the calculati…
Exclusive/inclusive ratio of semileptonicΛbdecays
2000
We present theoretical evidence that the exclusive/inclusive ratio of semileptonic ${\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_{b}$ decays exceeds that of semileptonic B decays where the experimental exclusive/inclusive ratio amounts to about 66%. We start from the observation that the spectator quark model provides a lower bound on the leading order Isgur-Wise function of the ${\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_{b}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}_{c}$ transition in terms of the corresponding $\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{B}{D,D}^{*}$ mesonic Isgur-Wise function. Using experimental data for the $\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{B}{D,D}^{*}$ mesonic Isgur-Wise functions this bound is established. Ap…
Spectroscopy, lifetime and decay modes of the Tbb− tetraquark
2020
Abstract We present the first full-fledged study of the flavor-exotic isoscalar T b b − ≡ b b u ¯ d ¯ tetraquark with spin and parity J P = 1 + . We report accurate solutions of the four-body problem in a quark model, characterizing the structure of the state as a function of the ratio M Q / m q of the heavy to light quark masses. For such a standard constituent model, T b b − lies approximately 150 MeV below the strong decay threshold B − B ⁎ ¯ 0 and 105 MeV below the electromagnetic decay threshold B − B ¯ 0 γ . We evaluate the lifetime of T b b − , identifying the promising decay modes where the tetraquark might be looked for in future experiments. Its total decay width is Γ ≈ 87 × 10 − …
Semileptonic B ->pi decays from an Omnes improved nonrelativistic constituent quark model
2005
The semileptonic $B\to \pi l^+ \nu_l$ decay is studied starting from a simple quark model which includes the influence of the $B^*$ pole. To extend the predictions of a nonrelativistic constituent quark model from its region of applicability near $q^2_{\rm max}=(m_B-m_\pi)^2$ to all $q^2$ values accessible in the physical decay, we use a novel multiply-subtracted Omn\`es dispersion relation, which considerably diminishes the form factor dependence on the elastic $\pi B \to \pi B$ scattering amplitudes at high energies. By comparison to the experimental branching fraction we extract $|V_{ub}| = 0.0034 \pm 0.0003 ({\rm exp}) \pm 0.0007 ({\rm theory})$. To further test our framework, we also s…

Long-distance behavior of the quark-antiquark static potential. Application to light-quark mesons and heavy quarkonia
2009
Screening effects from sea pairs on the quark-antiquark static potential are analyzed phenomenologically from the light-quark to the heavy-quark meson spectra. From the high excited light-quark meson spectrum a universal form for the screened static potential is proposed. This potential is then succesfully applied to heavy quarkonia. Our results suggest the assignment of X(4260) to the 4s state of charmonium and the possible existence of a 5s bottomonium resonance around 10748 MeV.
Tensor charges and form factors of SU(3) baryons in the self-consistent SU(3) chiral quark-soliton model
2010
We investigate the tensor form factors of the baryon octet within the framework of the chiral quark-soliton model, emphasizing those of the nucleon, taking linear 1/N_c rotational as well as linear m_s corrections into account, and applying the symmetry-conserving quantization. We explicitly calculate the tensor form factors H_{T}^{q}(Q^{2}) corresponding to the generalized parton distributions H_{T}(x,\xi,t). The tensor form factors are obtained for the momentum transfer up to Q^{2}\leq1\,\mathrm{GeV}^{2} and at a renormalization scale of 0.36\,\mathrm{GeV}^{2}. We find for the tensor charges \delta u=1.08, \delta d=-0.32, \delta s=-0.01 and discuss their physical consequences, comparing t…
Are there compact heavy four-quark bound states?

Spectroscopy of doubly charmed baryons
2004
We study the mass spectrum of baryons with two and three charmed quarks. For double charm baryons the spin splitting is found to be smaller than standard quark-model potential predictions. This splitting is not influenced either by the particular form of the confining potential or by the regularization taken for the contact term of the spin-spin potential. We consistently predict the spectra for triply charmed baryons.
