We investigate the mass of the $1^{-+}$ exotic meson, created with hybrid
interpolating fields. Access to light quark masses approaching 25 MeV is
facilitated by the use of the Fat-Link Irrelevant Clover (FLIC) fermion action,
and large ($20^3 \times 40$) lattices. Our results indicate that the $1^{-+}$
exotic exhibits significant curvature close to the chiral limit, and yield a
$1^{-+}$ mass in agreement with the $\pi_1 (1600)$ candidate and exclusive of
the $\pi_1 (1400)$.

The mass of the $1^{-+}$ exotic meson, created with hybrid interpolating
fields, is explored at light quark masses approaching 25 MeV ($m_\pi / m_\rho
\simeq 1/3$). Access to such light quark masses is facilitated by the use of
the Fat-Link Irrelevant Clover (FLIC) fermion action. Additionally, we make use
of large ($20^3 \times 40$) lattices to obtain good control of statistical and
finite volume errors. Our results indicate that the $1^{-+}$ exotic exhibits
significant curvature close the chiral limit, indicating previous linear
extrapolations, far from the chiral regime, have overestimated the mass of the
$1^{-+}$. We find for the first time in lattice studies a $1^{-+}$ mass in
agreement with the $\pi_1 (1600)$ candidate. We also find a strangeness $\pm$1
$J^P = 1^-$ state with a mass close to 2 GeV.
- Exotic mesons from quantum chromodynamics with improved gluon and quark actions on the anisotropic lattice
Zhong-Hao Mei, Xiang-Qian Luo (Zhongshan Univ., China)
hep-lat/0206012
Hybrid (exotic) mesons, which are important predictions of quantum chromodynamics (QCD), are states of quarks and anti-quarks bound by excited gluons. First principle lattice study of such states would help us understand the role of ``dynamical'' color in low energy QCD and provide valuable information for experimental search for these new particles. In this paper, we apply both improved gluon and quark actions to the hybrid mesons, which might be much more efficient than the previous works in reducing lattice spacing error and finite volume effect. Quenched simulations were done at $\beta=2.6$ and on a $\xi=3$ anisotropic $12^3\times36$ lattice using our PC cluster. We obtain $2013 \pm 26 \pm 71$ MeV for the mass of the $1^{-+}$ hybrid meson ${\bar q}qg$ in the light quark sector, and $4369 \pm 37 \pm 99$Mev in the charm quark sector; the mass splitting between the $1^{-+}$ hybrid meson ${\bar c}c g$ in the charm quark sector and the spin averaged S-wave charmonium mass is estimated to be $1302 \pm 37 \pm 99$ MeV. As a byproduct, we obtain $1438 \pm 32 \pm 57$ MeV for the mass of a P-wave $1^{++}$ ${\bar u}u$ or ${\bar d}d$ meson and $1499 \pm 28 \pm 65$ MeV for the mass of a P-wave $1^{++}$ ${\bar s}s$ meson, which are comparable to their experimental value 1426 MeV for the $f_1(1420)$ meson. The first error is statistical, and the second one is systematical. The mixing of the hybrid meson with a four quark state is also discussed.
- Hybrid Meson Spectrum from the FLIC action

hep-lat/0402016
The spectral properties of hybrid meson interpolating fields are
investigated. The quantum numbers of the meson are carried by smeared-source
fermion operators and highly-improved chromo-electric and -magnetic field
operators composed with APE-smeared links. The effective masses of standard and
hybrid operators indicate that the ground state meson is effectively isolated
using both standard and hybrid interpolating fields. Focus is placed on
interpolating fields in which the large spinor components of the quark and
antiquark fields are merged. In particular, the effective mass of the exotic
$1^{-+}$ meson is reported. Further, we report some values for excited mesonic
states using a variational process.

- Hybrid configuration content of heavy S-wave mesons
Tommy Burch and Doug Toussaint
hep-lat/0305008
We use the non-relativistic expansion of QCD (NRQCD) on the lattice to study
the lowest hybrid configuration contribution to the ground state of heavy
S-wave mesons. Using lowest-order lattice NRQCD to create the heavy-quark
propagators, we form a basis of ``unperturbed'' S-wave and hybrid states. We
then apply the lowest-order coupling of the quark spin and chromomagnetic field
at an intermediate time slice to create ``mixed'' correlators between the
S-wave and hybrid states. From the resulting amplitudes, we extract the
off-diagonal element of our two-state Hamiltonian. Diagonalizing this
Hamiltonian gives us the admixture of hybrid configuration within the meson
ground state. The present effort represents a continuation of previous work:
the analysis has been extended to include lattices of varying spacings, source
operators having better overlap with the ground states, and the pseudoscalar
(along with the vector) channel. Results are presented for bottomonium
($\Upsilon$, $\eta_b^{}$) using three different sets of quenched lattices. We
also show results for charmonium ($J/\psi$, $\eta_c^{}$) from one lattice set,
although we note that the non-relativistic approximation is not expected to be
very good in this case.

hep-lat/0301024
We report on a lattice determination of the mass of the exotic $1^{-+}$
hybrid meson using an improved Kogut-Susskind action. Results from both
quenched and dynamical quark simulations are presented. We also compare with
earlier results using Wilson quarks at heavier quark masses. The results on
lattices with three flavors of dynamical quarks show effects of sea quarks on
the hybrid propagators which probably result from coupling to two meson states.
We extrapolate the quenched results to the physical light quark mass to allow
comparison with experimental candidates for the $1^{-+}$ hybrid meson. The
lattice result remains somewhat heavier than the experimental result, although
it may be consistent with the $\pi_1(1600)$.

applied to the hybrid mesons, is shown to be more efficient in reducing the
lattice spacing and finite volume errors.

in the light quark sector, and $4369 \pm 37 \pm 99$Mev in the charm quark

- Hybrid meson decay from the lattice
Authors: UKQCD Collaboration: C. McNeile, C. Michael and P. Pennanen
hep-lat/0201006
We discuss the allowed decays of a hybrid meson in the heavy quark limit. We
deduce that an important decay will be into a heavy quark non-hybrid state and
a light quark meson, in other words, the de-excitation of an excited gluonic
string by emission of a light quark-antiquark pair.
We discuss the study of hadronic decays from the lattice in the heavy quark
limit and apply this approach to explore the transitions from a spin-exotic
hybrid to $\chi_b \eta$ and $\chi_b S$ where $S$ is a scalar meson. We obtain a
signal for the transition emitting a scalar meson and we discuss the
phenomenological implications.

We present a dynamical lattice calculation with 2 flavours for bottomonium
states with an additional gluonic excitation. Using improved actions for the
quarks and gauge fields at a lattice spacing of $a \approx 0.1$ fm, we find
10.977(61)(62) GeV for the energy of the lowest lying $b\bar bg$-hybrid, where
the first error is statistical and the second denotes the systematic
uncertainty due to the determination of scale. In a parallel quenched
simulation we demonstrate explicitly that vacuum polarisation effects are less
than 10% of the splitting with the ground state.
- Chiral Extrapolations and Exotic Meson Spectrum
Anthony W. Thomas and Adam P. Szczepaniak
hep-ph/0106080
We examine the chiral corrections to exotic meson masses calculated in
lattice QCD. In particular, we ask whether the non-linear chiral behavior at
small quark masses, which has been found in other hadronic systems, could lead
to large corrections to the predictions of exotic meson masses based on linear
extrapolations to the chiral limit. We find that our present understanding of
exotic meson decay dynamics suggests that open channels may not make a
significant contribution to such non-linearities whereas the virtual, closed
channels may be important.
- Measurement of hybrid content of heavy quarkonia using lattice NRQCD

hep-lat/0103025
Using lowest-order lattice NRQCD to create heavy meson propagators and
applying the spin-flip interaction, $c_B^{}
\frac{-g}{2m_q}\vec\sigma\cdot\vec{B}$, at varying intermediate time slices, we
compute the off-diagonal matrix element of the Hamiltonian for the
quarkonium-hybrid two-state system. Thus far, we have results for one set of
quenched lattices with an interpolation in quark mass to match the
$J^{PC}=1^{--}$ bottomonium spectrum. After diagonalization of the two-state
Hamiltonian, we find the ground state of bottomonium to show a $0.0035(1)c_B^2$
(with $c_B^2 \sim 1.5-3.1$) probability admixture of hybrid, $|Q\bar{Q}g>$.

hep-lat/9912041
We present a quenched calculation of lowest bottomonium hybrid states on an
anisotropic lattice with Landau mean-link tadpole improvement, using the
improved NRQCD Hamiltonian. We investigate the quark-spin s=0,1 sectors, which
contain both the non-exotic 1-- and the exotic 1-+, and demonstrate their
degeneracy in the case of the lowest order Hamiltonian. Both states are found
at around 1.6 GeV above the Upsilon ground state. We examine the spin-splitting
for several hybrid states that is due to the magnetic moment term in the NRQCD
Hamiltonian, all other terms having negligible effect. The spin splittings are
well resolved outside errors and are surprisingly large, and we investigate
their dependence on the strength of the magnetic term. We calculate one
contribution to these splittings using the Born-Oppenheimer picture for hybrids
and show that the observed size of the effect is plausibly explained by mixing
with hybrid states with more than one constituent gluon.

hep-lat/9909165
The spectrum of heavy-quark hybrids is studied in the leading
Born-Oppenheimer (LBO) approximation and using leading-order NRQCD simulations
with an improved gluon action on anisotropic lattices. The masses of four
hybrid states are obtained from our simulations for lattice spacings 0.1 fm and
0.2 fm and are compared to the LBO predictions obtained using
previously-determined glue-excited static potentials. The consistency of
results from the two approaches reveals a compelling physical picture for
heavy-quark hybrid states.

The energies of glue in the presence of a static quark-antiquark pair are calculated for
separations r ranging from 0.1 fm to 4 fm and for various quark-antiquark orientations on
the lattice. Our simulations use an improved gauge-field action on anisotropic space-time
lattices. Discretization errors and finite volume effects are studied. We find that the spectrum
does not exhibit the expected onset of the universal pi/r Goldstone excitations of the effective
QCD string, even for r as large as 4 fm. Our results cast serious doubts on the validity of
treating glue in terms of a fluctuating string for r below 2 fm. Retardation effects in the
Upsilon system are also studied by comparing level splittings from the Born-Oppenheimer
approximation with those directly obtained in simulations.

HEAVY HYBRIDS FROM NRQCD.

We present a quenched lattice calculation
for the lowest lying $b \bar b g$-hybrid states in the framework of NRQCD
using the leading order Hamiltonian up to ${\cal O}(mv^2)$. We demonstrate
the existence of a nearly degenerate rotational band of states with an
excitation energy approximately 1.6 GeV above the $\Upsilon$ ground state.
This lies around the $B \bar B_J^*$-threshold but well above the $B \bar
B$-threshold. Therefore a heavy hybrid signal may well be detected if the
centre-of-mass energy in B-factories is raised a few hundred MeV to coincide
with other resonances above the 4S state. Our prediction is consistent
with most phenomenological models and lattice calculations carried out
in the static limit.

in quenched QCD with quark masses near the strange quark mass. For the

We discuss in general the construction of
gauge-invariant non-local meson operators on the lattice. We use such operators
to study the $P$- and $D$-wave mesons as well as hybrid mesons in quenched
QCD, with quark masses near the strange quark mass. The resulting spectra
are compared with experiment for the orbital excitations. For the states
produced by gluonic excitations (hybrid mesons) we find evidence of mixing
for non-exotic quantum numbers. We give predictions for masses of the spin-exotic
hybrid mesons with $J^{PC}=1^{-+},\ 0^{+-}$, and $2^{+-}$.
