abstract
Using advanced lattice methods in Quantum Chromodynamics, three distinct scales are established in the excitation spectrum of the gluon field around a static quark-antiquark pair as the color source separation R is varied. On the shortest length scale, the excitations are consistent with states created by local gluon field operators arising from a multipole operator product expansion. An intermediate crossover region below 2 fm is identified with a dramatic rearrangement of the level orderings. On the largest length scale of 2-3 fm, the spectrum agrees with that expected for string-like excitations. The energies nearly reproduce asymptotic pi/R string gaps, but exhibit a fine structure, providing important clues for developing an effective bosonic string description.

The 0+ T_bc tetraquark is predicted near the B D-bar threshold while the 1+ state appears as an S-wave resonance 23-28 MeV above the B* D-bar threshold, with masses 7.143-7.222 GeV.
