Evidence for aBs0π±State

Abstract: We report evidence for a narrow structure, X(5568), in the decay sequence X(5568)→B_{s}^{0}π^{±}, B_{s}^{0}→J/ψϕ, J/ψ→μ^{+}μ^{-}, ϕ→K^{+}K^{-}. This is evidence for the first instance of a hadronic state with valence quarks of four different flavors. The mass and natural width of this state are measured to be m=5567.8±2.9(stat)_{-1.9}^{+0.9}(syst)  MeV/c^{2} and Γ=21.9±6.4(stat)_{-2.5}^{+5.0}(syst)  MeV/c^{2}. If the decay is X(5568)→B_{s}^{*}π^{±}→B_{s}^{0}γπ^{±} with an unseen γ, m(X(5568)) will be shifted u… Show more

“…Furthermore, closed-flavour hybrids allow for exotic J P C quantum numbers; openflavour hybrids, on the other hand, are not eigenstates of C-parity, and so are characterized by non-exotic J P quantum numbers. However, the recent observation of the fully-openflavour X(5568) containing a heavy (bottom) quark [33,34] may be a precursor to additional open-flavour discoveries that do not have a simple quark-model explanation (e.g.,…”

“…We also show the prediction for the Z(4430) width, which underestimates the total width as expected. The red point corresponds to the X(5568) state whose observation has been claimed by D∅ [137]. On the left panel we use the X(4140) width as measured by CMS [138].…”

“…This state has been identified as the lightest [cs][cs] tetraquark [143], although this interpretation looks at odds with the other states seen in J/ψ φ (see Section 8. [137]. The ratio of the yield of resonant over background events in the detector acceptance region and p ⊥ > 10 GeV is ρ = (8.6 ± 1.9 ± 1.4)%.…”

“…There is a growing set of experimental observations of resonance-like structures with quantum numbers which are forbidden for the quark-antiquark system or situated at masses which cannot be explained by the quark-antiquark model [2,3]. For example, the new observations [4][5][6][7][8][9][10] have challenged the conventional wisdom that mesons are made of quark-antiquark pairs in the low energy region.…”
