Multiquark picture for Σ (1620)

Abstract:

In this work we report on a new QCD sum rule analysis to predict masses of the excited baryon states (e.g. Σ (1620) and Λ (1405)) by using multiquark interpolating fields ((q¯q)(qqq)). For the Σ (1620) we consider the ¯KN, πΣ, and πΛ (I = 1) multiquark interpolating fields. The calculated mass from those multiquark states is about 1.592 GeV. For the Λ (1405) we first show the result using the π⁺Σ⁻+π⁰Σ⁰+π⁻Σ⁺ (I = 0) multiquark interpolating field, and compare the calculated mass to that of our previous result using the π⁰Σ⁰ multiquark state. We then show that the mass 1.405 GeV is well reproduced when using the ¯KN (I = 0) multiquark state. The uncertainties in our sum rules are also discussed.
