Using the chiral quark model, the ud s s system is studied by the Gaussian expansion method. Two configurations, i.e. diquark-antidiquark and molecular structures, are employed in the calculation. In the pure diquark-antidiquark or the molecular structure configuration, no bound state is found. However, the energy of the state ud s s with I(J P ) = 0(1 + ) is found to be lower than the corresponding threshold M K + M K * after taking into account the mixture of the two configurations. Future experimental research of this state is needed to check the validity of the channel coupling effect of the different color structures and the applicability of the chiral quark model to a multi-quark system directly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
