Prediction of the bottomonium D-wave spectrum from full lattice QCD.

چکیده
We calculate the full spectrum of D-wave states in the Υ system in lattice QCD for the first time, by using an improved version of nonrelativistic QCD on coarse and fine "second-generation" gluon field configurations from the MILC Collaboration that include the effect of up, down, strange, and charm quarks in the sea. By taking the 2S-1S splitting to set the lattice spacing, we determine the (3)D2-1S splitting to 2.3% and find agreement with experiment. Our prediction of the fine structure relative to the (3)D2 gives the (3)D3 at 10.181(5) GeV and the (3)D1 at 10.147(6) GeV. We also discuss the overlap of (3)D1 operators with (3)S1 states.

The bottomonium spectrum at finite temperature from N f = 2 + 1 lattice QCD
We present results on the bottomonium spectrum at temperatures above and below the deconfinement crossover temperature, Tc, from dynamical lattice QCD simulations. The heavy quark is treated with a non-relativistic effective field theory on the lattice and serves as a probe of the hot medium. Ensembles with a finer spatial lattice spacing and a greater range of temperatures below Tc than those ...
متن کاملRelativistic bottomonium spectrum from anisotropic lattices
We report on our results from a fully relativistic simulation of the quenched bottomonium spectrum. Using an anisotropic formulation of Lattice QCD, we were able to retain a very fine resolution into the temporal direction for a range of different lattice spacings. At fixed renormalized anisotropy we study the scaling properties of the spectrum and compare our results with non-relativistic calc...
متن کاملMelting of P wave bottomonium states in the quark-gluon plasma from lattice NRQCD
We study the fate of P wave bottomonium states in the quark-gluon plasma, using a spectral function analysis of euclidean lattice correlators. The correlators are obtained from lattice QCD simulations with two light quark flavours on highly anisotropic lattices, treating the bottom quark nonrelativistically. We find clear indications of melting immediately after the deconfinement transition.
متن کاملRecent Results in Bottomonium Spectroscopy Contribution to the proceedings of HQL06,
Nearly thirty years ago, the E288 experiment at Fermilab reported [1] the observation of a significant excess in the number of events near 9.5 GeV in the spectrum of the invariant mass of μμ produced in a proton beam on a nuclear target. Over the course of the subsequent two decades the spectrum of this newly-discovered heavy quarkonium system was fleshed out in some detail. Experiments which c...
متن کاملImproved Perturbative QCD Prediction of the Bottomonium Spectrum
Recently it has been shown that the gross structure of the bottomonium spectrum is reproduced reasonably well within the non–relativistic boundstate theory based on perturbative QCD. In that calculation, however, the fine splittings and the S–P level splittings are predicted to be considerably narrower than the corresponding experimental values. We investigate the bottomonium spectrum within a ...
