abstract

We discuss the heavy quark spin structure of the recently observed `twin' resonances $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ assuming that these are mostly of a `molecular' type, i.e. that their internal dynamics is dominated by the coupling to meson pairs $B^* \bar B - B {\bar B}^*$ and $B^* {\bar B}^*$. We find that the state of the $b \bar b$ pair within the $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ resonances is a mixture of a spin-triplet and a spin-singlet of equal amplitude and with the phase orthogonal between the two resonances. Such a structure gives rise to specific relations between observable amplitudes that are in agreement with the data obtained recently by Belle. We also briefly discuss possible properties of the isotopically singlet counterparts of the newly found resonances, and also of their $C$ ($G$) parity opposites that likely exist in the same mass range near the open $B$ flavor threshold.

  1. Two-pion exchange for coupled-channel scattering of two heavy mesons

    hep-ph 2024-11 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    The authors derive the next-to-leading-order two-pion-exchange potentials for heavy meson and heavy antimeson scattering and show the results are close to simple momentum-dependent contact terms.
