Abstract

In this work, we study systems composed of a $\rho/\omega$ and $B^*$ meson pair. We find three bound states in isospin, spin-parity channels $(1/2, 0^+)$, $(1/2, 1^+)$ and $(1/2, 2^+)$. The state with $J=2$ can be a good candidate for the $B_2^*(5747)$. We also study the $\rho B$ system, and a bound state with mass $5728$ MeV and width around $20$ MeV is obtained, which can be identified with the $B_1(5721)$ resonance. In the case of $I=3/2$, one obtains repulsion and thus, no exotic (molecular) mesons in this sector are generated in the approach.

Highlights

  • SU(6) spin-flavor symmetry scheme followed by [27]

  • We shall discuss the heavy quark spin symmetry (HQSS), which we show is satisfied by the dominant terms of the interaction, and discuss the relevance of the subdominant HQSS breaking terms

  • We shall discuss our results for both the ρ/ωB∗ and the ρ B systems by using the coupled channel unitary approach, where we only consider the contribution of s-wave

Summary

Introduction

The success in the predictions of this theoretical framework in the light and the charm sectors suggests to give the step to the bottom sector and make predictions in this work. The extension is straightforward, because the interaction in the local hidden gauge approach is provided by the exchange of vector mesons. The exchange of light vectors is identical to the case of the ρ D∗ interaction, since the c or b quarks act as spectators. Instead of exchanging a D∗ in the sub-dominant terms, one exchanges a B∗ meson. It is not surprising that the predictions that we obtain in this work in the B sector are very similar to those obtained in [28] in the D sector. We shall discuss the heavy quark spin symmetry (HQSS), which we show is satisfied by the dominant terms of the interaction, and discuss the relevance of the subdominant HQSS breaking terms. The role played by the ω meson is minor and it is not as important as that of the ρ meson
