abstract

We present the third-order QCD prediction for the production of top-anti-top quark pairs in electron-positron collisions close to the threshold in the dominant S-wave state. We observe a significant reduction of the theoretical uncertainty and discuss the sensitivity to the top quark mass and width.

Phenomenology of Hypothetical Single-Top Hadronic States

hep-ph · 2026-05-01 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

QCD sum rule calculations produce ground-state masses for single-top baryons like Lambda_t and mesons like T_t b-bar, with several central values slightly below constituent quark mass sums suggesting possible weak binding within uncertainties.

  • Masses of Purely Top-Quark Bound States: Toponium and the Triply-Top Baryon hep-ph · 2025-11-13 · unverdicted · none · ref 54 · internal anchor

    QCD sum-rule calculations give negative binding energies for toponium states consistent with near-threshold experimental signals and a central mass for the triply-top baryon slightly above three times the top-quark mass.
