Spectrum of Charmed Quark-Antiquark Bound States
Abstract
The discovery of narrow resonances at 3.1 and 3.7 GeV and their interpretation as charmed quark-antiquark bound states suggest additional narrow states between 3.0 and 4.3 GeV. A model which incorporates quark confinement is used to determine the quantum numbers and estimate masses and decay widths of these states. Their existence should be revealed by γ-ray transitions among them.
