  1. Mass spectra of the low-lying nonet scalar mesons in the lattice QCD Motoo Sekiguchi Kokushikan University Scalar collaboration; T. Kunihiro, S. Muroya, A. Nakamura, C. Nonaka, H. Wada, M. S.

  2. Plan of the talk • Objective and Motivation • The sigma meson in lattice simulation with dynamical quarks • The kappa meson in quenched lattice simulation • Current status of our new simulation for the scalar mesons • Summary

  3. Objective of Scalar Collaboration • Confidence level of the sigma meson and kappa meson has been increasing, and its physical significance in hadron physics and QCD is apparent. • Using Lattice QCD, we have been addressing the following Question about the scalar mesons: the sigma and the low-lying scalar mesons are resonances in QCD or something else?

  4. The nature of the low-lying nonet scalar mesons is not understood yet. • Experimentally well established scalar resonances below 1 GeV are a0 (980) and f0(980).

  5. The significance of sigma meson (I=0, JPC=0++) in low energy hadorn physics • There is a strong experimental evidence for a light sigma meson, whose pole was extracted with a small uncertainty from modern analyses in pi-pi scattering (Igi, Hikasa PR D (1999), I. Caprini, G. Colangero and H. Leutwyler PRL (2006)). • The significant contributions of the sigma pole were identified in the D meson decay; D+ →π-π+ π+ Fermilab E791; E.M. Aitala et al, Phys Rev. Lett. (86), 770 (2001). • Responsible for the intermediate range attraction in the nuclear force. • Accounts for ΔI=1/2 enhancement in K0 →2π compared with K+→π+π-. T. Morozumi, C.S. Lim and I. Sanda, PRL (1990). • Particle Data Group, Physics Letters B667, 1 (2008) Mass_sigma=(400-1200) MeV, Full width=(600-1000) MeV.

  6. Issues with the low-mass Sigma meson in QCD • In the quark model; JPC=0++ mesons→3P0 ⇒ the mass in the 1.2 -1.6 GeV region. Some mechanism need to down the mass with ~ 800 MeV • Color magnetic interaction between the di-quarks (Jaffe1977) with the bag-model wave functions. ⇒ All the low-lying scalars are tetraquarks! • The sigma is a superposition of qq-bar states. The sigma is indentified as the chiral partner of the π meson in Dynamical Chiral symmery Breaking in QCD. • The π-π molecule as suggested in π-π scattering. • A mixed state with scalar guleball state.

  7. + 0 The Kappa meson • scalar meson with the Strangeness (I=1/2) • Recent experimental candidates: • Fermilab E791: hep-ex/0204018, (PRL89(2002)12801). • BES:hep-ex/0304001. • Both observed a candidate near 800MeV • Even 660MeV! Eur. Phys. J C48(2006)543 (hep-ph/0607133)

  8. The sigma in latticesimulations with dynamical quarks • A first work on the sigma in lattice QCD with dynamical quarks. (Phys. Rev. D70, 034504(2004).) • The full QCD simulation is necessary to properly describe the sigma with possible contents, ie ., the qq-bar, the glueball, tetra quarks and so on.

  9. Previous Lattice QCD simulations of the sigma mesons • W. Lee and D. Weingarten, Phys.ReV.D61(1999)012015 Quenched simulation Mixing matrix between the Guleball and qq-bar Mass above 1 GeV • Alford and Jaffe Nucl. Phys.B578(2000)367. Quenched simulation Tetraquarks type interpolating operator Disconnected diagrams are omitted.

  10. I=0, scalar interpolating operator for sigma • There is experimental evidence that the sigma consist of only uu-bar and dd-bar compnets. c = 1,2,3 ・・・ color α=1,2,3,4 ・・・ Dirac spin

  11. The bound state properties are obtained by calculating expectation values, where Oiis the interpolating operator. • The path integral is regulated by the introduction of a space-time lattice. The integral is computed in Euclidean space using Monte Carlo techniques on the computer. ground state: m0 excited state: m1 • The results is a table of numbers. We average and fit exponentials to get masses.

  13. Details of our Calculation (1) Wilson Fermions (2 flavors) Plaquette Gauge Action Phys.Rev. D70 (2004) 034504 (hep-ph/0310312) Full QCD Update by Hybrid Monte Carlo (SX5 at RCNP) Disconnected Part by Z2 Noise Method (SR8000 at KEK)

  14. Details of our Calculation (2)- Simulation parameters Lattice size : 83×16 Very small ! β = 4.8 κ = 0.1846, 0.1874, 0.1891 Very strong coupling ! well established by CP-PACS, a = 0.197(2) fm , κc = 0.19286(14) , Lattice size: ( CP - PACS, Phys. Rev. D60(1999)114508 ) Wilson Fermions & Plaquette gauge action Number of the Z2 noise = 1000 Very large !

  15. Details of our Calculation (3) [κ = 0.1846] 1110 configurations [κ = 0.1874] 860 configurations [κ = 0.1891] 730 configurations Separation between configurations are 10 trajectories

  16. Details of our Calculation (4) Using the same values of the hoping parameters except for the lattice size. Our results and CP-PACS are nearly equal. The small errors indicate the high precision of our simulation

  17. m_π^2, m_ρ and m_sigma as a function of the inverse hopping parameter- Chiral Extrapolation - 0.8093 a = 1.05×10 -3(MeV)-1 = 0.207fm (1=197MeV fm) CP-PACS a = 0.197(2) fm 0.270 5.1410±0.0747 κc = 0.1945±0.0029 ( CP-PACS κc = 0.19286(14) ) mσ=257MeV

  18. We conclude the sigma shows a pole behavior and Here the disconnected diagram plays essential role.

  19. Other Lattice QCD simulations of the sigma mesons • The Kentucky lattice group (hep-ph/0607110) claimed to get a result for mass of Sigma from quenched lattice QCD with pion masses as low as 180 MeV. Using tetraquarks type operator. However, the Kentucky lattice group reported the full QCD results obscured the tetraquark (arXiv/0810.5512, Lattice2008). • UK-QCD (Phys. Rev. D74 (2006)114504.) claimed to get a result for Sigma using theglueball and qq-bar interpolating operators in the dynamical quark simulation. The mass of the glueball is below 1 GeV.

  20. The Kappa meson in quenched lattice simulation • We perform quenched simulations on kappa meson so as to clarify the structure of the scalar meson rather than to reproduce the experimental value of the mass; a quenched-level simulation should give a rather clear perspective on whether the system can fit with the simple quark model picture or not.

  21. Kappa propagator

  22. Simulation parameter • Quech approximation • Lattice size =20X20X20X24 • Wilson Fermions • Plaquette Gauge Action • Laticce spacing a=0.1038 fm, β=5.9 • Hopping parameters; h_u,d=0.1589, 0.1583 and 0.1574 h_s=0.1557 and 0_1566 • We heve checked that the mass of the π, ρ, K and K*mesons obtained in our simulation are good agreement with those on a large lattice (CP-PACS, 32^3X56).

  23. The mass ratios m_K /m_K* and m_kappa/m_K* at chiral limit, and m_φ/m_K* for s quark hopping parameters h_s=0.1566 and 0.1557.

  24. m_kappa ~ 1.7 GeV (K*0(1430)?) • Large than twice the experimental mass. • Our quenched lattice calculation suggests the kappa can not a normal qq-bar state.

  25. Current Status of our new full QCD simulation for Scalar mesons • We use gauge configurations from International Lattice Data Grid (ILDG). • We employ the all-to-all propagator method with the dilution techniques (Trinlat Collab. Compt. Phys. Commun. 172 (2005) 145.). • Smearing (Jacobi, Gaussian, Derivative quark) source and sink for errors reduction (Graz group, PR D78 (2008) 034501).

  26. Variational Method It is to use several different interpolating operator Oi.

  27. Setting of Calculation Variational method with multiple interpolating operators an explicit inclusion of tetraquark operator

  28. We are preparing for the simulation of sigma and the other scalar mesons. • We will start the simulation for the kappa meson at October.

  29. Summary • The sigma meson and other low-lying scalar mesons are still a source of debates. • A full QCD lattice simulation suggests the existence of a low-lying sigma as a pole in QCD; thephysical content is obscure: the disconnected diagram gives the dominate contribution. • A quenched lattice calculation suggests that the kappa can not be a normal qq-bar state. • We will present the new results of sigma and kappa meson in the near future.
