Nature of the X(5568) : a critical Laplace sum rule analysis at N2LO

We scrutinize recent QCD spectral sum rules (QSSR) results to lowest order (LO) predicting the masses of the BK molecule and (su)\bar(bd) four-quark states. We improve these results by adding NLO and N2LO corrections to the PT contributions giving a more precise meaning on the b-quark mass definition used in the analysis. We extract our optimal predictions using Laplace sum rule (LSR) within the standard stability criteria versus the changes of the external free parameters (\tau-sum rule variable, t_c continuum threshold and subtraction constant \mu). The smallness of the higher order PT corrections justifies (a posteriori) the LO order results + the uses of the ambiguous heavy quark mass to that order. However, our predicted spectra in the range (5173\sim 5226) MeV, summarized in Table 7, for exotic hadrons built with four different flavours (buds), do not support some previous interpretations of the D0 candidate[1], X(5568), as a pure molecule or a four-quark state. If experimentally confirmed, it could result from their mixing with an angle: sin 2\theta\approx 0.15. One can also scan the region (2327~ 2444) MeV (where the D*_{s0}(2317) might be a good candidate) and the one (5173~ 5226) MeV for detecting these (cuds) and (buds) unmixed exotic hadrons (if any) via, eventually, their radiative or \pi+hadrons decays.Comment: Version matching with the publised version : some references added and updated, comments added, misprint corrected (51 pages, 66 figures, 7 tables

1-- and 0++ Four-Quarks and Molecules from QCD Spectral Sum Rules

We estimate the masses of the 1-- heavy four-quark and molecule states by combining exponential Laplace (LSR) and finite energy (FESR) sum rules known perturbatively to lowest order (LO) in \alpha_s but including non perturbative terms up to the complete dimension-six condensate contributions. We use double ratio of sum rules (DRSR) for determining the SU(3) breakings terms. The SU(3) mass-splittings of about (50 - 110) MeV and the ones of about (250 - 300) MeV between the lowest ground states and their 1st radial excitations are (almost) heavy-flavour independent. The mass predictions summarized in Table 2 are compared with the ones in the literature (when available) and with the three Yc(4260, 4360, 4660) and Yb(10890) 1-- experimental candidates. We conclude that the lowest observed state cannot be a pure 1-- four-quark nor a pure molecule but may result from their mixings. We extend the above analyzes to the 0++ four-quark and molecule states which are about (0.5-1.0) GeV heavier than the corresponding 1-- states, while the splittings between the 0++ lowest ground state and the 1st radial excitation is about (300-500) MeV. We complete the analysis by estimating the decay constants of the 1-- and 0++ four-quark states. Our predictions can be tested using some alternative non-perturbative approaches or/and at LHCb or some other hadron factories.Comment: Talk presented at the "16th QCD International Conference (QCD 12)", Montpellier, 2-6th july 201

On invariants of almost symplectic connections

We study the irreducible decomposition under Sp(2n, R) of the space of torsion tensors of almost symplectic connections. Then a description of all symplectic quadratic invariants of torsion-like tensors is given. When applied to a manifold M with an almost symplectic structure, these instruments give preliminary insight for finding a preferred linear almost symplectic connection on M . We rediscover Ph. Tondeur's Theorem on almost symplectic connections. Properties of torsion of the vectorial kind are deduced

X, Y and Z States

Many new states in the charmonium mass region were recently discovered by BaBar, Belle, CLEO-c, CDF, D0, BESIII, LHCb and CMS Collaborations. We use the QCD Sum Rule approach to study the possible structure of some of these states.Comment: Contribution for the proceedings of the "XII Quark Confinement and the Hadron Spectrum - CONF12" conferenc
