    In this paper, low-energy scattering of the (D∗Dˉ∗)±(D^{*}\bar{D}^{*})^\pm meson system is studied within L\"uscher's finite-size formalism using Nf=2N_{f}=2 twisted mass gauge field configurations. With three different pion mass values, the ss-wave threshold scattering parameters, namely the scattering length a0a_0 and the effective range r0r_0, are extracted in JP=1+J^P=1^+ channel. Our results indicate that, in this particular channel, the interaction between the two vector charmed mesons is weakly repulsive in nature hence do not support the possibility of a shallow bound state for the two mesons, at least for the pion mass values being studied. This study provides some useful information on the nature of the newly discovered resonance-like structure Zc(4025)Z_c(4025) observed in various experiments.Comment: 11 pages, 6 figures. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1403.131

    Lattice study on ηc2\eta_{c2} and X(3872)

    Full text link
    Properties of 2−+2^{-+} charmonium ηc2\eta_{c2} are investigated in quenched lattice QCD. The mass of ηc2\eta_{c2} is determined to be 3.80(3) GeV, which is close to the mass of DD-wave charmonium ψ(3770)\psi(3770) and in agreement with quark model predictions. The transition width of ηc2→γJ/ψ\eta_{c2}\to \gamma J/\psi is also obtained with a value Γ=3.8(9)\Gamma=3.8(9) keV. Since the possible 2−+2^{-+} assignment to X(3872) has not been ruled out by experiments, our results help to clarify the nature of X(3872).Comment: 15 pages, 8 figures. typos, grammatical errors and some references corrected, redundant discussions deleted, conclusion does not change. published versio
