S-wave (1/2¯)S-wave (1/2¯)

•No need to consider ghost state (propagators are positive).•Lowest states in 2.4 fm are higher then those in 3.2 fm which reflect the volume dependence of the energy shift.•The first excited state is

also not the θ+ candidate as it is several hundred MeV higher near EK(p=pL) + EN(p=pL).

•Ratio of spectral weight for two non-interacting particles W(12)/W(16) = V3(16)/V3(12) = 2.37

Page 36: Lattice Calculation of Pentaquark Baryons Nilmani Mathur Department of Physics and Astronomy University of Kentucky Collaborators : Kentucky Lattice QCD

P-wave (1/2P-wave (1/2++))

• Propagators turns negative. Ground state is S-wave KNη' ghost state. In fitting function this ghost state, pentaquark and KN-P- wave scattering state are the first three states. We find ghost and scattering state.

• The volume dependence in

EK(p=pL) + EN(p=pL) due to

the P-wave nature is seen for medium and high quark masses. Near The chiral limit the scattering length is close to zero which is consistent with the experiment.

Volume Dependence in 1/2Volume Dependence in 1/2++ channel channel

• For bound state, fitted weight will not show any volume dependence.

• For two particle scattering state, fitted weight will show inverse volume dependence

Our observed ground state is p-wave scattering state

Cross-correlator : <η1η1> + α <η1η2> +α<η2η1> + α2 <η2η2>

Claim : One peak for each channel. One is θ+(1/2¯) corresponding to I=0.Observed θ+ peak is not sharp enough and it still could be consistent with the threshold scattering state.Also, 1/2+(I=0) is quite large. Where is the P-wave scattering state?? m(1/2+)/m(1/2-) ~ 2 ~1.5 (Sasaki)

If which is very different than any other resonance particle. If θθ++(1540)(1540) exists, exists, theorists must find out new way to explain its width. Its existence will open theorists must find out new way to explain its width. Its existence will open up entirely new (and richer) hadron spectrum and bring new information up entirely new (and richer) hadron spectrum and bring new information about nature of short distance interactions between quarks.about nature of short distance interactions between quarks.
