Fine structure of pentaquark multiplets in the dynamical diquark model

In this work, we apply the dynamical diquark model to predict the spectrum of hidden-charm pentaquark states in both unflavored and open-strange sectors. Using only Hamiltonian parameters introduced in the tetraquark S - and P -wave multiplets, the model naturally produces the level spacing supported by the most recent LHCb results for P c structures. Furthermore, using model inputs obtained from data of hidden-charm, open-strange tetraquarks ( Z c s ), we predict the spectrum of P c s states, including the recently observed P c s ( 4459 ) . We find all pentaquark candidates observed to date to belong to the 1 P multiplet and hence have positive parity.

Correlating confinement to topological fluctuations near the crossover transition in QCD

We show the existence of strong (anti)correlations between the topological hot spots and the local values of the trace of the Polyakov loop in 2 + 1 flavor QCD with physical quark mass, in the vicinity of the crossover transition corresponding to the simultaneous restoration of chiral symmetry and deconfinement. Using sophisticated lattice techniques, we have carefully identified the topological hot spots using quark zero modes and measured the short-distance fluctuations of the Polyakov loop about them, showing how the latter is repelled quite strongly around the peak of the zero modes. Though we could explain some aspects of these correlations within the instanton-dyon picture, our work sets the stage for a larger goal towards a systematic study of the role of different topological species that interact with the Polyakov loop, establishing the strong connection between topology and confinement.
